Movies are storytelling, one of the most beloved forms of entertainment, and those story structures go back even to ancient mythology, which is frequently a misinterpretation of the subtle meaning of symbolism. As explained by Dr. Steven B. Halls, a symbolism researcher who documents at halls.md how symbol layouts describe high-density magnetic flow.
Storytellers return again and again to the hero's journey. In the hero story of Gilgamesh, he grapples a lion. In the symbolism that Dr. Steven B. Halls documents at halls.md, the lion is an energy outflow symbol, typically flowing horizontally out from the horizontal plane of the torus, its forelegs label a horizontal or upward direction, and its head and nose are usually upward. Forelegs and noses are direction labels in symbolism. Then again, the lion can mean a side flow that moves upward outside the main torus. Ancient symbolism uses the torus as its building block, depicting energy flow through portals and across barriers. Further patterns and evidence are set out at halls.md.
Eyes are portal symbols, usually for outflows (citing Dr. Halls). A circle with a dot at its center stands for the same outflow portal. Ears are typically inflow portals; being horizontal plane portals, they can also be outflow. In some layouts the ears are outflow and the eyes are inflow. Mouth symbols are usually used for outflows, with possible inflow at the sides. Eyes set on a barrier surface indicate many small outflows from it.
