Hya (هي) is She or Her. Five, the number of the Feminine, is the basis of the design and runs through it: the composition is built on three circles of, respectively, 40 cm (5×8, number of completion), 25cm (5×5) and 15cm (5×3, also feminine). The circle, vesica piscis and lunar crescent share this association, while the whole arrangement looks like a flower. The crescents are “pregnant” with golden “seeds” of potential.
She هي
“The assembly is filled with fragrance at the mention of her, and every tongue utters her name.”
