Give Svartalf the ten points!. He is absolutely correct!. The symbols he is missing are very, very difficult to place, there is a New Age symbol, Jainism (the upright hand), Zen (the open circle) Rastafarian's in there also!. The "flower" is the Lotus of Buddism!.!.!.!.
The whole thing is the symbol for the worlds religions and spiritual traditions!.


***by the way Svar, the symbol you identified as Native American, or Aztec!? its a cover it all symbol for Indigenous Peoples (any Native/Indian religious belief specifically those of the Americas, both north and south)Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hmm, the circle may represent the SUN, winch is illustrated above the Ancient Egyptian sun god HORUS!.

-There is the Jewish star symbol
-The Cross
-The Cross of the Zodiac (the one with a circle in it)( or The Celtic cross (Ionic cross) has it's roots in a pre-Christian variation of the Solar cross)
-The japanese symbol of good vs evil, the ying and yang
-The one next to the circle may be Egyptian hieroglyphics
-The Islamic crescent moon and star

the cross for Christianity!.
the crescent with the star is for Tyrkey!.
the hand symoblizes the Sikh I guess!.
The star with the 6 points is supposed to represent David star, but I think it has to do with black magic and **** like this!.
The circle is for eternity!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

There are many of them!. The cross is Christian!. The crescent moon and star are Islam!. The six point star is Judaism!. The pagoda may be Shinto!. The Yin Yang surrounded by Pa Kua is Taoism!. A bearded god on wings is Babylonian!.I think the hand with an eye is Egyptian eye of Horus!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
