 On the Origin of the Ourobouros Symbol
Christians early adopted the Orobouros as a symbol of the limited confines of this world (that there is an "outside" being implied by the demarcation of an inside), and the self-consuming transitory nature of a mere this-worldly existence (following in the certainly non-Masonic footsteps of the Preacher in Ecclesiastes).
So it is no surprise that the Orobouros symbol should be viewed as both innocuous and pernicious by Christians from differing life-contexts.
Even the unitary meaning and authority of a sign often require explication in order to be grasped (as provided in the Gospel of John's narration structured around Jesus' various manifestations of Himself as The Sign).
