It all started around a week ago. I was meditating and I had a dream that there was an axe coming down on a bowl, and I knew that bowl full of water was the world, and when I put my shoulder to the giant arm holding the axe, myself emerging from the bowl, I was asked to defend Magic being in this world. I forget what all I said, but it centered around something like "There are still believers here, and I am one of them. Please don't give up". Since then, I've been seeing a symbol very similar to the Hieroglyphic Monad, as I'm sure some of you are familiar with. If not, here's a good example.

(IMG:http://z.about.com/d/altreligion/1/0/T/z/2/skircherdiagram.jpg)

Remove the semicircles at the bottom, shorten the cross, and take out the symbol for Helios, instead putting the Lunar Crescent at the top of the cross, and that's what I've been seeing. Everywhere. It's shown up in shadows on my wall, it showed up on my left forearm as a tattoo I didn't remember for approximately five minutes. I took a picture, and it turned up as having nothing there. I saw it on my own face when I went to look in the mirror, and it was there for about three seconds. I've been seeing it in shadows cast across my room while reading, and in random places right in front of me. I'm not sure what to think, I can't find a match for this symbol anywhere. I've done some sigil work, but this has never been one of them. And it's really freaking me out. I want to know what this symbol is, and where it came from.

One thought I had was that it might be Phoenician, but it's not. In fact, I have literally no idea what this symbol is. Taking it apart from the Hieroglyphic Monad standpoint, it should be the cross, representing the four primal elements, and the Lunar Crescent, giving credence to the moon's power over these elements as a celestial body. But that doesn't make a whole lot of sense for me, as a person, and I'm completely confused.

Please, if you have a thought, no matter how simple, tell me. This issue is driving me insane.

Hello, and thank you for your input. But there was no circle, instead only a cross and the lunar crescent. I have done some more meditation into the matter and it's all still quite foggy but some of the things inside of it from a representational standpoint lead me to believe it's a message of sorts, sent to me by an inquiring mind. What I am confused about, however, is some of the symbolism contained therein.

Firstly, the thing that bothers me most, is that I at once knew that the bowl atop the pillar, barely standing out on its own, was the world and the liquid inside was the magic in the world. Following that is the fact that I, a person of magical awareness, was watching through the looking glass so to speak through the water which no one around me noticed. I take this as a passing nod to the fact that I am a magician, which is all well and good. The part that bothers me most, however, about that is that I passed through the water, out of the bowl, and stopped the arm before it collided with it, and I was at once larger than and smaller than the bowl. Next, was that after deliberating for some time over the vision, it appeared that the disembodied arm, a detail I'd forgotten, was constructed of jade, and didn't move at the elbow. So it was an effigy of sorts, perhaps a construct or golem. But at once I am interested in the material it was constructed with. It felt as if it shunned magic entirely, like it was anti-magic. I realize that sounds lame and cliche, but it's a sad truth. Jade, to me, has never felt that way out of the lands of the dead, which I have visited only thrice. The shades there owned jade that was devoid of magic, bereft of spiritual vibration, and it attracted spirits. I have never seen another naturally occurring stone do this.

The next thing that bothered me was the peculiar lettering on the axe, as it both looked Proto-Sinaitic and Proto-Canaanite, but was neither. I've done much research since, and it hasn't turned up as a verifiable language. One thing I do remember about it, though, is that it had an E-like symbol that was a left bracket (<) with a horizontal strike through it. If anyone knows anything about this, please let me know. And lastly, the part I'd all but forgotten is that the voice I heard was a woman's, and it oscillated in the mid-frequencies while staying completely balanced throughout treble and bass. It had no abnormalities signifying third-party editing or naturally occurring warble. This is an anomaly, and I would know, given that I've been messing with sounds for the better part of 5 years now.

The whole thing is just weird.

If anyone has any insight into the matter, please do tell me.

[Greetings Isiah,

Personally I think this has Hermes name written all over it. It looks to me like an adaptation of the Mercury symbol. Cool!
