The Janus head was the ancient Roman guardian of gateways and of all thresholds. He was the God of change and transitions watching with two faces, past & future, internal & external, above & below, known & unknown and finally the passage of life to death, and death to liberation. It is also the gateway of the heart.
The head is set in surrender on an altar of initiation. Within the tension of opposites a new third is magically born. Here we see this new birth poised above the Janus head surging into freedom and abundance.
