Cryptic Sphinx. A Mythological Being From Ancient Times Relevant in the Perpetual Present

Cryptic Sphinx The cryptic sphinx epitomizes awareness of a possible  event and she is symptomatic of hazard, implying an appearance of a new situation or enterprise. As the enigmatic unknown She is the as yet to be revealed future.

Mystery is energy and when the sphinx loses her mystery she dies. […]
