Thread Name: BS: What's Your Symbol?
Subject: RE: BS: What's Your Symbol?
Our wedding invites had a heart made from our two intitials entwined; where the letters met, because Hardi's first name stars with a "G", part of the "G" formed a cross.

I also use, when I need to intitial something, an "S" encircled by an oval "O" (from my maiden name) that comes out looking very much like the yin/yang thingie.

Like many of his colleagues, Hardi's initial or signature contain a cross. This is because the custom for a priest is to sign/initial themselves like this: Hardi+. It has a many-layered meaning.... I figure any words I could use to try to explain it would just invite someone to jump up my butt. :~)
