Where is the other end of a rainbow? Irish legend tells that fairies put the pot of gold there and then leprechauns guard it. If ever captured by a human, the Leprechaun has the magical power to grant three wishes in exchange for their release. In some Taiwanese Aboriginal mythology, there is a paradise at the other end of the rainbow , where the departed spirits may finally rest in peace after passing through the rainbow bridge as their life destination.

 

The path of the journey through a rainbow is a symbol of the exploration of life and dream.

   

Rainbows are circular through optical effects explained in Physics. Rainbows have no end because they are circles. The start point is also the end point of a circle. Therefore, a journey of exploring the other end of a rainbow contains the idea of cycles between life and death. Are all stories true in between the appearance and the disappearance of rainbows?
