How does it do that? It almost seems like there is a bright white light emanating from the center. The mag view sheds some light on the appearance The most central zone starts with a pale yellow base. The contrast with the next white ring makes the white even whiter (I think!) Then there are radiating spikes of white that have a spiral configuration – making it look like a spinning wheel. At the periphery there are 5 pairs of radiating white spikes that traverse the pink layer into the blue purple layer further brightening the center.

SHEVARIM, Three curved shells – a “broken,” sighing sound of three short calls. TERUAH – 9 SMALL SHELLS the “alarm,” a rapid series of nine or more very short notes. TEKIAH GEDOLLAH – Rams horn – “the great Tekiah,” a single unbroken blast, held as long as possible. (A combination of Tekiah, Shevarim, Teruah, ending with a Tekiah Gedolah.) ” Awake, sleepers from your sleep! Arise, slumberers, from your slumber! Scrutinize your deeds and return to repentance and remember your creator! Those forgetters of the truth in the vanities of time and those who stray all their year in vanity and emptiness which can neither help nor save. Look to your souls, better your ways and deeds. Let each one of you abandon your evil way and your thoughts which are not good.” “The shofar symbolizes the major theme of the Days of Repentance, during which we commemorate the beginning of the world. We try to make a new start within ourselves, and to return to the beginning of the cycle. The shofar, with its powerful and profound calls, removes the obstacles before us and helps us reach this new start.” What did Elvis say about this?
