The biblical story of Adam & Eve tells of a serpent tempting Eve to eat from the forbidden Tree of Knowledge, which leads to their realization of their nakedness & shame. God banishes them from the Eden Garden & they face a life of hardship afterwards. The serpent's actions symbolize temptation. The forbidden fruit can be seen as a metaphor for wealth, representing something desirable but ultimately harmful without limits. Pursuit of extreme wealth can lead to negative consequences such as greed & corruption, as in Adam & Eve's downfall.
The story serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of becoming too attached to worldly possessions & the importance of seeking more meaningful pursuits. In this image, the serpent is depicted as a lady in a red dress holding a red ruby shaped like an etherium, symbolizing the forbidden fruit.
