Hi
Would anybody like to discuss the symbolism and meaning of the various parts of the school emblem (logo) found on the website.
Below is a short breakdown of the parts that I have identified. ( hopefully I am not reading to much into the symbolism ;) )
The motto " Sigillum Sanctum Fraternitatis Alexandriae Lux Aeterna " roughly translated as the " The Holy Seal of the Fraternity of the Eternal Light of Alexandria ".
At the top of the symbol is the six pointed star, which may refer to the celestial etc.
The symbol being a circle is divided into four equal quarters by placing a cross within the circle.
Within each quarter created by the cross within the circle is an image of the Man, the Lion, the Eagle, and the Ox. Perhaps symbolic of the four aspects of the Christ, the four evangelists, the four beasts etc.
The cross in the centre of the circle has the English letters B to the east, O to the South, E to the West and L to the North. Moving in a clockwise direction. Each letter referring to the B.O.E.L. Could potentially be some interesting correspondences, gematria involved here, but didn't look into it yet.
Finally, in the centre of the cross is what looks to me like the letter Shin followed by a Yod? Not sure if that's a Yod or not and haven't gone so far as to work our any Gematria etc.
I welcome any and all comments, thoughts and ideas from anyone. If moderators are allowed to explain the full symbolism / meaning, that would be great too :)
