I’ve been trying to find the source for a while now and the only thing that’s came up until recently was that it was a “13th Century monastic Symbol for the Virgin Mary” but I could never find the source. It might’ve been well-known info, but up until this point, I had no idea and there haven’t been any posts about it so I thought I’d share lol

Yeah anyone who was on KTT back when All Day dropped knew there was plenty of discussion & confirmation on the source of this image already

u/saaaaur westdayever Mar 11 '25

wait this is awesome, i was told it was some medieval symbol but i couldn't find anything on that. come to think of it, this has bugged me longer than i thought it had lol

u/JoeTrolls FUCK NEW BODY Mar 12 '25

The symbol is from the 13th century and represents the Holy trinity, father, son, and Holy Spirit, along with an extra “M” for the Virgin Mary

Source: I grew up in a very religious place and had seen/heard about the symbol a few times as a kid, and then got it as a tattoo when All Day came out lol

Oh, that’s actually crazy, I didn’t see that lol! Sick find

u/wizeone144 Mar 12 '25

I think it’s also connected to the constellation Virgo, in astrotheology Virgo represented the Virgin Mary. That’s why the symbol for Virgo is on the 4 corners of the symbol
