I have created a new logo for hyperRitual, for my new business cards. It is a sign for Uranus (Ouranos), who has featured largely in my magical work, and will have a significant role in the robomancy stuff I am developing.
Astrologically modern interpretations associate Uranus with the principles of genius, individuality, new and unconventional ideas, discoveries, electricity, inventions, and the beginnings of the industrial revolution [cf. cybernetics]. Uranus governs societies, clubs, and any group dedicated to humanitarian or progressive ideals [cf. transhumanism]. Uranus, the planet of sudden and unexpected changes, rules freedom and originality. In society, it rules radical ideas and people, as well as revolutionary events that upset established structures. // Wikipedia: Planets in Astrology: Uranus
The symbol may be variously interpreted, but I prefer to see it as suggesting transition over, above, or beyond the ordinary or traditional magic circle, which is what hyper-ritual has always been about.
