Thought Form 17: Devotional Thought

The image features a central, solid blue isosceles triangle with its base at the bottom, pointing upwards like a flame or crystal. From behind this blue form, dynamic, brush-like strokes of white and gray emanate outward and upward, creating a fan-like, textured halo. The composition is stark, set against a solid black background, with the number '17' printed in white in the bottom left corner.

This image is a plate from the Theosophical work 'Thought-Forms' (1901), which posits that human thoughts and emotions manifest as observable, vibrating energetic shapes in the astral plane. It represents the authors' attempt to codify Theosophical occult psychology through visual art.
