I have no clue. www.symbols.com doesn't list it either. Is it possible that it was simply made up?

My best impression is that the lower part resembles many signs for the sun, while the upper part appears to have something to do with water.

Looks kind of like a vagina and an anus.

It looked like something else to me at first, but since you said that, that's ALL I can see in it! :P

Yes, I have it. I took the picture about 3 or so years ago.

Interesting story behind that. I was laying on my bed watching tv, with my left leg up bent at the knee, and my right up with the ankle on my left knee. This thing fell out of my pants from the end of the right leg.

In short, beats the hell out of me.

Fascinating...ANY idea at all where it might have came from?

I think it's just a made-up symbol by a company that wanted an exotic and somewhat mystical design for cheap pendants to sell to occultist wannabes.

I've seen the same thing before, but I do not know what it is, though I do know some of the SCA merchants have them, maybe I'll ask at junefair if i remember.

Have to say it looked the same to me, people from New York are screwed up.

Anyone else see the eye and ear though?

I've seen it before! its a symbol devised by pranksters who wanted to start a marketing craze in the hope that people would fall for the lie that this symbol came from the Lost continent of atlantis. Trust me.
