Update 3/23/2013 I believe I saw my amazing whirligig at a big top showing of +Cirque du Soleil "Amaluna" this past weekend. I think of a whiligig as an amazing display of balance and motion. In the "Amaluna" show this lady walks out on stage. There is a pile of what appear to be a dried palm frond stems on the floor. In the next 10 minutes or so she assembles a skeleton of a bird in flight with one hand while the other hand holds the balanced structure.She picks up each frond with her toes and lifts it up to her free hand to build the delicate structure. She is simply balancing each piece of frond on top of another to assemble this amazing bird skeleton. This thing is huge, five feet or larger, and she ever so slowly adds more fronds to the perfectly balanced masterpiece with one hand from the pile of dried fronds on the floor. Then the stage starts circling so you can see the delicate nature of this precariously balanced master piece. She balances the huge frond masterpiece on her head without any hands while the stage is still whirling slowly around. Amazing! After that she takes a final frond from the floor and uses it to balance her delicate structure on top of the single frond. By this time the crowd is going wild with amazement. The lights and costumes of the Las Vegas style show make up for the bland, tan color of the whirligig this lady so delicately created. At the end, with one finger, she touches the delicately balanced structure and it collapses into a flattened heap on the ground. As I walk out of the show I thought it would be cool if they made a miniature version of this amazing structure she built. I also thought I would become frustrated trying to replicate the perfection of balance and motion she had accomplished in the show.
There are too many matching words and phrases from my dream to not believe this real life event was not predicted in the dream about a five foot whirligig I had on 1/3/2013. That is even more amazing to me!

I had a dream on 1/3/2013 about an amazing whirligig. It was about 5 feet wide and lay flat on the floor in a resting state. It was made out of what appeared to be multi-colored glass with a steel border to hold the less than 1/8 inch thick multi-colored sheets of glass in. (the steel border looked like the steel edges of a snow ski).
The pattern of the 5 foot wide whirligig looked similar to a continuous piece of peeled apple or orange skin. The demonstrator simply flipped the top most piece of the continuous rind of whirligig glass up in the air with their arm. An amazing display of color and light was displayed as the whirligig twisted around in a flurry of contorted angles for a minute or so in the air before settling down back into a resting state. It looked like a five foot wide "Ground Flower" fireworks display.
I don't know why I was so excited about the device. I just thought it was a really cool, artsy toy! I decided to buy one for about $500 and then thought it would be impossible to replicate what the demonstrator did without the whirligig shattering into a thousand tiny pieces of glass.
