Seeds of Pride Mandala
The Pomegranate was the original Forbidden Fruit, and symbolizes the LGBTQIAS+ presence within society. Forbidden by modern culture, like the Pomegranate, we are plentiful like seeds. Each new queer generation advances the cause of full integration and cultural equality, building upon the spiraling history and tracks laid by the generations before. And so the Pomegranate scatters its seeds to bring new life and true Wisdom, Sophia, from what was denied by traditional cultural authority figures who seek to limit the rainbow hues of reality. 

Pride in 2022, this design represents the rainbow hues of personal truth, crowned and bedecked in all of our individual fabulousness, as the Forbidden Fruit of the Knowledge of Love and Happiness and Personal Freedom rejects yet another carefully manicured garden sold to us as Paradise while denying us the entire World. 

"Be queer:  Do crimes," as those who came before extolled. And so we honor Pride in 2022, as the fight continues, carried forth by the next generation of the rainbow tribe of the Alphabet Mafia.
