Hexagram and Galactic Swirl

This symbol was designed as an alternative to the original symbol of the Raelian Movement, which was comprised of a hexagram intertwined with a right-facing swastika. Western sensitivities to the swastika led the Raelians to adopt this alternative in 1991, although they have since officially returned to the older symbol, believing that education was more effective than avoidance in dealing with such matters.
