“KARPE DIEM”

 “Karpe Diem”

Story Behind the Photograph 

Karpe Diem comes from the Latin Carpe Diem — “seize the day.”

It is a reminder to meet the present moment with intention, awareness, and purpose.

In symbolic traditions, the sun represents the conscious mind — the realm of clarity, logic, truth, and deliberate action. It illuminates what is known, guides direction, and brings understanding into focus.

This piece honours the part of you that shapes your path through will and action.

Where night invites introspection, the day calls for intention.

Where night softens, the day defines.

To seize the day is to honour that inner fire: the will to act, the courage to move, and the clarity to see your path as it is.
