Ishq is a force that pulls us towards the centre. It is the invisible architecture that holds up the Heavens and the Earth. The eight-pointed stars represent a guiding light, while seven birds rise from it like small prayers remembering their way home. Their forms shift with the density of thread, some glowing with presence, others dissolving into what the eye almost misses. Each one suggesting that the soul must lift itself, again and again, toward its own source of light.
Look closely and the geometry begins to breathe. The gold designs evoke a cosmic order gently guiding us back to the luminous center. And when your gaze returns to the birds, ask yourself quietly: Is there a part of you still longing to fly?
