Not really, no, but I always wanted to learn. I never thought about it again until I read this just now. Haha. Hmm.... It could be, I suppose. That's a good point, Echo, thanks!

If I'd had seen that airplane symbol I'd think I was being told that I was in the process of overcoming obstacles and rise to a new level of consciousness, freedom or awareness. Perhaps I was getting a better perspective or greater view on something and I was becoming more confident and self-assured in my goals, decisions and actions.

I'm one of those people who enjoys sky watching and cloud divination. I'd also like to learn more about how to identify the various types of clouds, what kinds of wind patterns form them, and other such info. I remember touching on the subject in grade school science class, but have no recollection of the terms.

That's a good point, given the other post you posted in. Haha! It was an aha moment I had tonight, and that is definitely thinking about being on a new level of awareness of things.

I agree! I've always been interested in clouds, I might look into that as well. (:

Messages from my Deities and spirit community sometimes come from shapes and symbols of clouds.

Just like last night, I saw a very cool face in the clouds last night; it was well defined, a male figure with a very pleasant countenance. It held its shape for quite some time, and I really enjoyed how I felt (kind of peaceful) just looking at it. This evening, looking at the clouds again, I saw the same face. This time it wasn't as well defined, but it was very clearly the same as the one I saw last night. Perhaps to show me this wasn't just a fluke, I watched it fade away and then reform a few moments later, this time from another perspective, but still the same face. Hmmm...

Anyway, for those who are interested in clouds watching here is a link http://cloudappreciationsociety.org/

When I saw this post I looked through rune symbols to see if I could find your symbol there. I didn't see it. But a few minutes later, I was on my friend's FB page, Truth About Religion and Myth, and she had posted an image of the "world's oldest script", which included a symbol that looked like the one you saw (5th symbol on top line), only it's not tilted over. Here's the post.

Unfortunately, no one can read this script.

Oh my gosh, that's literally it. I wasn't expecting it to be an actual symbol, but it actually is! Thank you so much for that! I have no idea what it means, but at least now I know it exists! Haha! Thanks!

I was pretty surprised that I ran across it just minutes after I had read this thread and looked through several images on Google trying to find it. I gave up looking and went back to browsing Facebook and there it was, lol.

Wow, that's awesome! Thanks! Still no clue as to what it means, BUT at least i know now it's an actual symbol for something!

I know I'm probably a bit late but I felt like I have to respond to this thread.
As soon as I saw the symbol you drew I thought of Ogham (which is kind of like Druid "runes" system).
There's a symbol Gort, which looks exactly like the symbol you saw.

Maybe you might want to research it a bit ;)

It looks like it could fit, even though the lines are off from what I saw. (: But of course, that doesn't mean anything you see in real life will be exactly as it is on paper! Haha! Thanks so much! I appreciate the help! I'm going to keep reading into that.

It looks like two runes to me: Nauthiz which means delay, restriction or obstruction that leads to self awareness and Gebo which means gift. So perhaps a road block that will help you find you inner voice or path that is a gift from the gods?

It might very well be that, Holda. It actually fits really well with what happened around that time I saw it, since it's been awhile since I did so. Now, however, I'm on the right track again and I think the road block is over. Well, with the physical world that is. I have been struggling with my deities recently but it could have been due to my stress.


I'll look at those, thank you so much! (:

You mentioned in an earlier post that the only thing you could think associated with it at first was crossroads which makes me think of Hel (the norse goddess)

Could very well be, seeing as I work with her Father. xD Thanks for the help! I'm going to look into that now, as that definitely makes a lot of sense. Haha!
