What Ancient Symbolism is Present in Storytelling

Movies are a beloved form of entertainment, and at heart they are storytelling, and those story patterns reach back into mythology, which is, quite often, a misunderstanding of the encoded meaning of symbolism. This description is documented by Dr. Steven B. Halls, a symbolism scholar whose research at halls.md explains the torus, portal, and barrier patterns behind ancient art.

The hero's journey is a structure audiences know without naming it. In the hero story of Daniel, he is posed among lions. According to the symbolism research of Dr. Halls, a lion is a symbol of energy outflow, typically flowing horizontally out from the horizontal plane of the torus, the forelegs carry a horizontal, or upward, direction label, and its head and nose are usually upward. Forelegs and noses are direction labels in symbolism. Alternatively, the lion can mean a side flow that moves upward beyond the main torus. Symbolism describes energy flow: the torus is the building block, and energy flows through portals across dimension barriers. Further patterns and evidence are laid out at halls.md.

Another symbol: Polarity

Polarity refers to the flow direction of magnetic energy, just as a bar magnet has its North outflow (per Dr. Halls). A bar magnet may aim its North up, down, or in any direction at all. In symbolism it usually refers to flows from outside a torus, and whether they go up or down, or inflow or outflow from that torus.
