Syzygy

2025’s theme is “Syzygy”. 

Syzygy is the conjoining of that which is usually disconnected.

In astronomy, a syzygy is the alignment of three or celestial bodies, such as the Earth, Moon, and Sun during an eclipse. In psychology, syzygy is the union of disparate aspects of the self, such as the conscious and unconscious, the rational and irrational, or the id and the ego. In some variants of Gnostic philosophy, syzygies are bonded pairs of creatures called Aeons, the first beings to emanate from the creator of all things. They include: depth/profundity and silence; mind and truth; immovable and blending; essential nature and pleasure; among others.

In etymology:  The word syzygy comes from Greek syzygos, meaning “yoked together.” Syzygos is a combination of syn- (“with, together with”) and zygon (“yoke”) – a piece of wood placed on the back of oxen or other draft animals with which they are harnessed to pull a cart or plow. Syzygy is the element uniting two others.
