'Light Within Darkness' is inspired by the fiery skull from Baba Yaga's home. In the Russian Fairytale of 'Vasilisa the Wise', Vasilisa is sent out to gather light for her step family from Baba Yaga. In her pursuit she is given tasks and with the help of her mother's doll she is able to complete them. She builds inner wisdom and strength, and a strong intuition. Eventually after hearing Vasilisa carries her mother's doll (a blessing), Baba Yaga decides not to eat her and sends her home with a fiery skull. The skull alongside the doll lights her way home and helps her to fight her fear. 

'Light Within Darkness' is a tribute to your own inner wisdom, it is hear to give you strength in your journey and help you light the way.
