[This is mine](http://www.eastgateresource.co.uk/productpages/magickal_amulets.html) well the third one in. I have had that medaillion for years and where it whenever I need a confidence boost. I know it sounds stupid but when I wear it my luck seems to change. If I was ever to get a tattoo that would be it. ---

Ok, this is my [sigil](http://taokow.tripod.com/emailban.htm). (Message from Taokow-- the far right, tauric, squared circle, representing the eternal arising and falling of opposites.) I created it almost 8 years ago. The strange part is that it has served as a morphic indelibility reardless of my online incarnations. I am known through my online incarnations as Taokow, Byakko (the white fox), and Devilsknew. The names and identities were quite unconscious to this graphic monad and arrived at through totally seperate and independant meaning and nomen. Coincidentally the main graphic seems to be a nexus and is morphically symbolic and connotative of the Cow, The White Fox, and well…the Devil. ---
