Flame-Ray Sun with Four Crescent Moons and Stars

A round mandala with a plain circle at the center and wavy, flame-like sun rays reaching out from it in every direction. Around the sun, four large crescent moons sit in a cross pattern, each one tucked inside a big rounded shape filled with spiral curls. Small five-pointed stars are scattered near each moon, usually two or three per section. Between the main sections, extra loops with more spirals fill the space. A braided, rope-like border of woven bands runs around the whole outer edge. The lines are clean and fairly thin, so this suits older kids and adults who like detailed work. Try coloring the sun in warm yellows and oranges, then switching to cool blues and purples for the moons and stars so the night and day sides stand apart. The empty center circle is a nice spot for a bold color or a pattern of your own. Print it free and use it for a calm quiet-time activity.
