Aion

Depicted as a lion-headed figure, encoiled by a serpent, and holding two devices (scepters in some depictions, key in others), and encircled by the whole of the zodiac, Aion is a master of cyclical time. Ancient sorcerous texts make mention of him as "the Star-Girded One" and "Father of Seasons." Among sorcerers, Aion often appears as his lion-headed form or as a more humanoid aspect, albeit with skin the black of the universe, sparkling with stars, and encircled by a constantly-spinning golden ring emblazoned with the symbols of the zodiac.
