Laugh a bit. Image C is a modern artist's work, I did laugh. Image E uses males, but gender is irrelevant. When it's 3 females, they get called "goddesses", which I disagree with. Usually they have the same meanings as image E and F.

Images A to F read as symbolism: hands and feet with stigmata as floating portal symbols along a barrier, wings as a barrier symbol on a ring-portal headband, a big upward bird replacing a male figure, and a strata half-portal above a headband.

I laughed because on image F they completely replaced one of the males (with an upward bird on his chest) with a big upward bird. Image A uses hands and feet with stigmata, as portal symbols along the barrier. They aren't attached to limbs. A is awesome. Image B puts wings on a ring portal, which happens to be a headband. Wings are a barrier symbol, the ring between them is the portal. Image D uses a classic strata layer "half portal" symbol above the headband.
