The line connecting and unifying the disparate and oppositional circles is a manifestation of the name יקוק which represents the singular will of Hashem that underlies all of Creation. (שמו בגימטריאא רצון) The panoply of powers represented by the circles, each expandable in myriad directions and to infinite depth is represented by the name אלוקים, which represents the manifestation of Hashem's presence in a multitude of ways.
In the ultimate truth, the name representing unity is the one that describes Hashem, but for the creation of existence, the name representing more than one is needed. Both of these approaches, which seem to be mutually contradictory, are needed.
Indeed, there is no contradiction. יקוק represents the inner truth of existence, while אלוקים, represents how it appears to us within Creation.
