Sleeves as Flux Tube Walls
Sleeves as flux tube walls. Notice the pulling/tension along the sleeves of image A. Tension is also on image B (and some of my fairly recent posts.
Image E and F use flared sleeves as the ends of flux tubes, and the bare arms are the smaller flux tubes that emerge (or form on-the-spot). Image H is instructive about barrier structure. Fleur-de-lis on the outside are the outflows from tube surfaces, and the black "tadpole" shapes on the ermine skin, I think those are outflows directed inward into the lumen of the tube. ( Ermine, Hermine, Hermetic seal... for people who like words, which isn't my strong suit).
Why is image D a symbol? Something about horizontal flux probably. Image G's iconography has many examples, and I've always wondered why empty shirts are laying on the ground. Now I think these are empty remants of flux tube debris, like when a flux tube ends and it's contents spill out, some forms a new small flux tube, some curls up into a vortex and disappears, and some just becomes aether debris. Chopped up limbs is a weirder example, typically found at the bottom of a pictogram, I think they also represent remnants of flux tubes.
Image C and many like it, has been a puzzle. If the upper half of the center person is a flow newly emerged from a portal, (hands showing upward flow), those side flow people could be teaching about flux stuff assembling a flux tube wall on-the-spot. OK, that's really speculating. Green man uses vines as flux tubes. Greensleeves was never a surname. I've been that guy in the greensleeves song, (and in the green stamps parody song). Perhaps we've all been that guy.
