Question: Can someone tell me some of the symbols in this image!?
I mainly need help in identifying what the snake in a circle stands for!. I searched it up and got something about eternal life!. The angel and the monarchy also confuse me!.
EVERYTHING I DO KNOW:

+the central pike (the weapon of the free citizen),
+surmounted by the Phrygian cap, or legendary red cap of liberty,associated with the freed slave;
+enveloping the pike, the fasces (upright sticks, bound together in a bundle, carried before the ‘lictors’ or senior magistrates and symbolizing solidarity and civic virtue);
+garlands of oak leaves, symbolizing victory!.
+a chain with a broken fetter, symbolizing emancipation from bondage; +an equilateral triangle, symbolizing equality;
+ the all-seeing eye of Providence (a masonic symbol)!.

I would try!.!.!. but I think you forgot to post the link ;)!. Anyways!.!.!. is it a snake in the shape of a circle eating its tail!? If it is then its probably the Ouroboros, which can be symbolic of immortality or something that constantly re-creates itself, but I've read someplace that it may also represent the sun!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
