Sleeves and Empty Cloaks as Flux Tubes

Sleeves and empty cloaks. This is a followup to yesterdays post about how flared sleeves in symbolism, are sometimes representing a flux tube. Sleeves seemed like an unimportant symbol, but it lead to some commenters asking questions, which is nice, and showing me that I ought to explain it some more. Here was my previous post: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/18TNnfUbV5/

Image E uses firehoses as an analogy. When flux is flowing through a tube, the tube is round. When flux stops, and the tube is discarded, it is flat. Yes, I know the New Testament tells of laying palm leaves and outer garmet cloaks. In Iconography, nearly everything has an extra meaning. I'm trying to put some meaning onto those cloaks.

Image C seems like a nicely inflated cloak, and I like it because this kind of high-density energy is in a higher-dimension, so we only can barely scientifically detect the tube walls of a high-density flux tube. I also mentioned that chopped up limbs like on image F, could represent abandoned fragments of flux tubes, also scattered at the bottom of pictograms.

Lets look at flux tube patterns on image H and I Parts of the flow looks like musical horns that gradually become bigger, to a maximum size apparently, and then a smaller flux tube comes out and repeats the process of becoming gradually bigger, inflating. In symbolism, leaves are very common for representing surfaces of tubes. Green man has a lot but you can find many examples worldwide.

In the new testament story, laying palm leaves probably means discarded wall debris from flux tubes. Empty cloaks seems applicable too, but it's not obvious, not until someone (like me) uses different words, and then it's hopefully clearer to understand. I hope. Realizations like about sleeves don't come suddenly. In my case, I was collecting them for years before I noticed a good clue about their meaning. I like to show my work.

Here are collections of examples of the things I've mentioned. https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/tree-with-dates/ https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/chopped-up/ https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/flux-tube/ https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/t-shirt/ https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/green-man/ https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/sleeves/ https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/serpentine/
