The following information is my interpretation of symbols and how I came to see them as meaning as such. In other words, this article is an opinion and nothing more.

In the Bible there is a story about Adam and Eve in the garden and there’s a serpent with an apple. As a little girl this story always captivated me and made me wonder what was so alluring about that apple to make her eat it. Through the years that story stuck with me and I paid Attention to everything thus concluding that there was deeper meaning then what has been taught.
When I studied this picture, I noticed along the bottom the women had serpents coming from their clothing and it dawned on me.
Those are the ones that smell like green apples.
The ones floating above them sulfur or rotten eggs.
At the very top I know the smell but still searching for the common item people can relate it too so that they too are easily identifiable.
Here’s the cool thing about the above picture and deeper meaning behind it!!!
LOVE, that’s what concurs (conquers) all!!!
Let me explain.
In life I encountered individuals that would smell like green apple candy (Jolly Rancher green apple).
It is a sweet alluring smell that draws you in and allows them to manipulate the unsuspecting in ways that ordinarily wouldn’t be tolerated.
It’s the smell of false hope and deceit.
Just like a snake that will lash out once you’re drawn in and fooled by the smell, you don’t see what’s coming next.
I’ve spoken to many individuals that have noticed the same smell coming from individuals who had attachments or something negative influencing them and their decisions.
Further research led me to Buddhist studies.
Below Buddha sitting under the Bodhi tree to obtain Enlightenment is attacked by Mara more on this story and what’s in the below picture by watching the following video:
All those demons came at the Buddha to attack him, but he remained in “the middle way”, meditated and with love all those attacks turned to lotus flowers.
Which brings me to the next realization I had….
The smell of good, truth, transparency.
There are people who have that smell.
I have personally smelled it a handful of times and have heard others who describe it as a sweet smell like that of the lotus flower.
To go deeper…
In contrast, after Enlightenment its said that as Buddha meditated, he was sheltered from the rain by a serpent known as a “Naga”.
This Naga is not like the serpent described in western civilization.
