The following links are three examples of mandalas that I found. There are all taken from the same website, yet represent different symbols. In each example there is an original picture of an inspiration and than a mandala that was created to represent the image. I will be using the same technique for my personal mandala.

The reason i chose to use a mandala as one of my genres is because they can be used to promote healing and wellness. Since my project is about cancer, focusing on my sister and her fight against cervical cancer i thought this would be perfect. My inspiration for my mandala is a Zibu Angelic symbol that means acceptance of optimum health. Each Zibu angelic symbol carries a message alone with it. With this particular symbol the message is as follows...

  //"Breathe life into your body and envision it as the healthy temple it is intended to be. Breathe deeply and bring oxygen to your blood. It will deliver the life- supporting elements to elevate your body's experience. See yourself as a thriving being with all components working together as one and functioning fully and completely. It is as it was meant to be. See it as being so."//

  In order for the symbol to have a stronger meaning there are certain colors that should be used when desigining it. The colors should be a turquoise and or some sort of color in the green family. =====   http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs043/1101496577140/archive/1102532826330.html

  Along with the symbol I am going to be incorporating the cervical cancer awareness ribbon. Surprisingly the colors or the Zibu symbol and ribbon are the same ! This ended up working out perfectly. ..
