Very enjoyable solve and I love the aesthetic balance of black and white. It's not too much of either. It also makes it a good difficulty level.

Nice even solve and nice end result.

Fun solve, nice image, and I learned something! A trifecta!

Lovely! One of the most famous Ourobouros is the Auryn from The Neverending Story. In the book, it's written as AURYN, without the "the".

Thanks, Teresa K! Do you remember me from my old username, Ginkgo100? I see there is an Aurelian Ginkgo who's active here now. No relation of course!

I sure do remember you, and I'm so glad you are back! :-)

Very wonderful and complicated design. Fun to solve. No guessing.
