origins
From Olympus to Kailash, mountains were seen as homes of gods, places of pilgrimage, and gates to the divine.
meaning
Strength, endurance, challenge. The mountain embodies both obstacle and sacred height.
today
It speaks of resilience, perspective, and the courage to face what seems impossible.

Visualise a mountain before you. Ask: am I meant to climb, to circle, or to rest in its shadow?
