The double-headed eagle represents the unity of heavenly and earthly authority vested in the episcopacy, while the circular rug reminds the bishop—and the faithful—of Christ’s eternal kingdom. Placing an orlet beneath the bishop’s feet during the Divine Liturgy, ordinations, and hierarchical services underscores this sacred calling.
