A symbol for the
alchemical element Sulfur, which is analogous to the human
soul. Alchemically, sulfur has the qualities of masculine, hot and dry- combined
with Mercury (feminine, cool and moist), the pair were considered the parents
of all metals.
Alchemical drawings
often portray Sulfur as the sun. (In some views, sulfur and salt are
the parents of Mercury) The symbol of sulfur is often used as an identifying
symbol by many Satanists.
This glyph is often referred to incorrectly as the "pontifical cross of
Satan" by tract writers, due to its adoption as an emblem of Satanism by
Anton LeVey.
