Crown of Thorns, Headbands, and Looping Horns as Portal Symbols
Aftermath of headbands (from my previous post: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1CCEVpbVsi/ ). I have to include the crown of thorns as a headband symbol. It is aligned with the horizontal plane of the halo behind it on image A. And it is usable on those hoods. Simply put, it's hidden meaning is to be supplementary evidence that these heads are portal symbols.
Not a big surprise, each has other portal evidence, and I'm relieved because simple is usually best. Image B's head surrounded by straight rays seems like a "Sol" type upward portal, and the handheld cross and lily are downward symbols, making B a bidirectional. The blood drops on A may be how it gets a downward aspect too. Image D, I am attuned to notice what goes up above a portal barrier (the headband) and then comes back down, making a loop-back. Those Greeks/Macedonians may have marked Alexander the Great's coins this way to mean "he has loop-back connections with God". Image C's horns loop over a barrier and flow downward into the top of the head. Kindof similar to image D, but sadly no headband on this particular Pan. Other Pans are quite similar to D.
