The circle is a universal symbol of unity, a meaning that transcends cultures, borders, and languages. It appears time and time again within the religious rituals and depictions, from the halo of holy figures to the shape of the Holy Spirit during communion. It also represents a cycle, a never-ending journey symbolizing the faith of pilgrims. The circle offers a place for introspection, a space for pilgrims to look back upon their journey, before carrying on to their final destination.
