Meaning of the OllinOllin means constant movement, transformation, for there are still two halves (two half circles), and its half still gives off an incomplete impression. The word, which is blood of flowers, is moving constantly, transforming, and reinventing itself. She is her own destiny. Its continuous change, however, allows her to remain unaltered, for her essence, her characteristics, are never lost. Like a rabbit fleeing its predator, she keeps on improvising new ways, and running comfortably, forming its path, one that leads to what has been conveniently judged. This running is the eternal search, the constant learning that allows the growth.
