New Year, New Calendar


Well, I didn't get another Daily Zen calendar this year. This one is called "Wisdom of the East." I'd had the Daily Zen calendar two years in a row, and there were quite a few repeats so I tried something new. The saying above seems nicely applicable. Now, if I only knew where those symbols came from. ;-)

ADDENDUM:
Found an online Symbol Dictionary, but so far I've only found one of the symbols. Ah well.

The symbol in the top left, that looks like the Greek letter psi with two lines through the stem, stands for magentism or magnesium.

The background for the one in the top right might be a variation of a sun-symbol (four points enclosed in a circle), but I haven't found it exactly.
