Not really, but that's a pretty cool design.  ;)

The spurs are like little legs.  They extend outward at an angle, then bend only once about halfway along their length, then reach out to a border.  The top and bottom spurs bend straight up (or down), the inner spurs are at about 30 degrees from vertical.

The spurs are kinda like legs, the concave star the "body," which makes up the "spider" that represents Weavespinners.

Well first of all there is no color on the medallions

My idea from the descriptions is actually more along the lines of this:

sorry about size but otherwise the thin "legs" tend to disappear

Edit: Remind me next time I need to refresh the discussion before posting :)

Man, I guess everyone's mental images of Fel's writings are REALLY different. I could have sworn I remember concave lines(curves, whatever) forming across the star to make the spider legs. Oh well, monkey stupid, eat banana now.

Fel, what is the correct sequence of colors in shaeram? There is conflicting information about it:

Tower of Sorcery, Chapter 7: about shaeram symbol where Conduit crosses the floor of the tower, i.e. in the Heart of Goddess (visible part)
 This symbol resembled that six pointed star, but instead of a star it was six individual triangles laid out corner to corner, third point out, all contained within the circle. Each triangle was a different color. They were red, blue, a shade of purple like violets, orange, yellow, and a lighter shade of purple that was obviously a different color.

Tower of Sorcery, Chapter 10: about shaeram symbol n the room used for Ritual Sorcery (known later as High Sorcery) aka. Circling
 The circle around the perimiter was green, and the four-sided concave star in the center was white, with a black point in the middle. The points of the six-sided star between them were red, orange, yellow, blue, indigo, and violet, laid out in such a way that their corners met perfectly and did not overlap. [...] Each color represented a sphere of Sorcery.

CanisD on <tt>#sennadar</tt>: I believe that when I first made the Shaeram design and showed it to Fel he said that I got the colors in the order going round that he had imaged it, if i remember correctly. The order is from topmost, clockwise: red, blue, violet, orange, yellow, pink (or pinkish purple).

See: Shaeram article on Senndar Wiki.
