Magic Symbols that begin with "M-P"

Mandala

A mandala is used to refer to the personal world in which one lives and the various elements of the mandala or the activities and interests in which one engages, with the most important being at the center of the mandala and the least important at the periphery.

Mano Cornuto

In modern Italy the horns are deviously placed behind someone's head or pointed at a person with the conveyed meaning being that this person is being cheated on by his wife or her husband. The Italian cornuto translates literally to having horns, but figuratively means the person is a cuckold, literally, "a man whose wife has sexual relations with someone else". The gesture is also common in Spain, Colombia, Portugal, Brazil, Albania, Slovakia, Czech Republic, and Greece and has the same meaning in all of these countries.

Mano Fico

Mano Fico, or literally fig hand is an ancient obscene gesture and one of the better known protective gestures against the evil eye. The thumb and fist gesture is an ancient representation of sexual union. The gesture is used against the evil eye because some believe an obscenity serves as a distraction to evil.

Masonic Compass

The Masonic symbols of the square and the compass represent the pagan deities of the female Isis and the male Osiris. The dual principle of "male" and "female" is represented by the "square and compass." The "compass" represents OSIRIS, the male god of the Egyptians, while the "square" is the symbol representing ISIS, the female goddess of Egypt—both are sexual symbols.

Monad

Monad, a word with Greek roots, according to the Pythagoreans, was a term for God or the first being, or the totality of all beings. Monad being the source or the One meaning without division.

Necromicon

The Necronomicon Gate Symbol, or Sigil, is often said to be the actual symbol that appears on the cover of the infamous Necronomicon book. The symbol is also commonly referred to as the Sigil of the Gate or the Gate of Yog-Sohoth. There are actually three sigils that have been combined to form this seal. The symbol or emblem is believed to harness great occult forces and bring protection to the wearer. Spelwerx takes the position that this symbol is a false sigil usually found on the cover of an edition of the legendary, but fake Necronomicon, a falsified grimoire based on the work of horror fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft.

Paleolithic Goddess

This Paleolithic Goddess symbol is a simplified silhouette of a paleolithic Egyptian mother Goddess, probably a prototype of the Goddess Isis, and often used to symbolize the Lady, the feminine deity or goddess of Wicca.

Pentacle

A circle around a pentagram contains and protects. In union, the pentagram and circle symbolize eternity and infinity—the cycles of life and nature. The circled pentagram is a passive form of implying spiritual containment of the magic circle, the traditional secrecy of witchcraft, and the personal, individual nature and non-proselytising character of the pagan religious path.
