Syzygy
Syzygy means Union or marriage of opposites. The yg at the end of the word syzygy is the same root as yoga.
This is our attempt to honor the infusion of yoga thinking into the West by employing an English word.
Syzygy also means, when the planets align.

Infinity
The word infinity comes from the Latin infinitas or unboundedness. It refers to several distinct concepts (usually linked to the idea of without end or bigger than the biggest thing you can think of) which arise in philosophy, mathematics, and theology. In popular usage, infinity is usually thought of as something like the largest possible number or the furthest possible distance; hence questions such as what is the next number after infinity? or if you travel to infinity, what happens if you then go a bit further? The infinity symbol in several typefaces:
Lemniscate
. . . the lemniscate, also called the lemniscate of Bernoulli, is a polar curve whose most common form is the locus of points the product of whose distances from two fixed points (called the foci) a distance
away is the constant 
. This gives the Cartesian equation
where both sides of the equation have been squared. Expanding and simplifying then gives 
Jakob Bernoulli published an article in Acta Eruditorum in 1694 in which he called this curve the lemniscus (Latin for "a pendant ribbon")
The infinity symbol is also called the Figure-8 or lazy-8
The infinity symbol is important because meditators – even total beginners – often make it spontaneously with their hands when they are in the midst of a revelation. I started noticing this around 1976, and it has been a source of delight since then.
