The surface of an old tree stump☘️

And here's a color variation of this second design...

Because I love me some badass Janeway! 😆

If you like them I've them available for printing on apparel, stickers, magnets, etc. on my Teepublic store, and they will be available for tote bags (and maybe other merch) on my Etsy shop shortly! As always, profits from sales go to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation! 🎀🎗️

On the Preternatural History of Both Worlds Tomi secundi tractatus secundus; De praeternaturali utriusque mundi historia, c. 1621 by Fludd, Robert

"For the soul or essence passes from the letter Jod The first letter of the Tetragrammaton (יהוה), representing the divine spark or the Father. during creation and generation, and after corruption The decay or death of the physical body. it returns once more to Jod. For through generation, the soul descends from the unity of matter into a multitude, and through corruption or death, it is released and ascends back into that which it was before—namely, into Jod. This seems to agree with that discourse of the Royal Psalmist in Psalm 25:1: The soul of the righteous is lifted up to God; and in Psalm 42:3: The soul says, "When shall I come, that I may appear in the presence of God?" original: "Anima dicit; quando accedam, ut appaream in conspectu Dei" Similarly, in 1 Kings 19:4, Elijah said: Now, O Lord, take my soul; for I am no better than my ancestors. Does not the breath of life also return to the one who breathed it The Creator once its duty is fulfilled? Hence the Wise Man Referring to Solomon in Proverbs 20:27. said that the soul of man is the lamp of the Lord. From this, it is necessary that once the compound The human being, composed of body and soul. is dissolved, the divine light returns again to its own proper source, with divine grace assisting, insofar as the world is measured from Aleph The first letter of the Hebrew alphabet, representing the number 1. or Jod with a cipher The letter Jod represents the number 10, often written as a 1 with a zero (cipher) in Kabbalistic mathematics to show the return to unity. back to the "Great Aleph." Therefore, in a circular dimension, all things have proceeded from God and all things shall return again into God. For God the Father is that "Being in potential," into which gross matter will be spiritualized through dissolution; and the Son is the "essence actually shining," into which the soul, dissolved by sublimation, shall be exalted; and all this shall be done by the power of the loving bond of the fiery Spirit; for in the Spirit we shall live again. This, then, was the beginning of both the Macrocosm The "Great World" or universe. Microcosm The "Little World" or man; and here also shall be the end for both: namely, that "In the beginning was the Word," in which was life; and that shall be the end into which life, as if into its own fountain and origin, shall return. Hence this Word is rightly called in the Apocalypse The Book of Revelation. the Alpha and Omega original: "α & ω", the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet., which is the Tree of Life for both the living and the dying; because it has triumphed over death: may His name therefore be blessed forever!

Round 5 - Match 1

Macrocosm (S3E12) vs Relativity (S5E23)

When Janeway returns to Voyager, the whole crew seem to be unconscious except for the Doctor. The whole crew has been under attack by a macrovirus that keeps growing. How can Janeway save the ship and her crew from this aggressive contagion? When Janeway wears her tank top, the macrovirus should fear her…

Seven of Nine’s in uniform, and she’s also at Utopia Planetia… what? She’s been recruited by the timeship Relativity to go back in the past to stop a weapon planted on Voyager by someone from the future. When Seven’s time travelled a few too many times, Janeway gets recruited too but doesn’t receive a warm welcome on the timeship. Could she be the reason someone planted the temporal weapon onboard Voyager in the first place?
