Commerical symbols that reverberate in the mind
    #12493801 -

Various symbols seem to pop up randomly in mind a lot especially when I'm on psychedelics or smoke weed. Heres one which has been popping into my head for a long time now

its the symbol of a flour company

and it reverberates in my mind for some reason. Another symbol which I've been seeing since I was a little kid is this symbol of a castle. I've seen the particular symbol before but I can't remember where so I can't google it. I wonder why so many companies use these symbols they're not just random symbols they come up with off the top of their heads you can find them in symbolism dictionaries. I haven't looked up this owl eyes one but I'm gonna now. What about all of you? Any symbols that seem to pop up in your mind a lot?

The owl is a symbol of death and the dark side.

Maybe I should load the bong with some salvia.

This happens to me a lot when I`m really baked.

No symbols in particular really though.
Sometimes they are things I can tell were from a long time ago, memories that I would never remember. So weird.

Lakefingers said:
The castle might be for a wheat company. Castle - White Castle? Disneyland and Buena Vista International have a castle in their logos - hard to have been a kid in the late 20th Century without having many times seen those. Was dad a drinker? Check his whisky bottles, e.g. Slane Castle. Castles, like homes, can reflect the ego. In this case a well-guarded one, authority, defense, sessility. Reflect on what happened around the time you noticed these signs/symbols. What it feels like to have them come into awareness..


Shoulda mentioned it in the OP in the town I grew up I lived near the beach and theres a small island just off the coast with a small castle the monks built so they would be the first to see the vikings coming. Heres a picture

The symbol I see looks just like it and it reminds me of it too but the symbol I see is a 2D drawing not a 3D actual castle.

There is a reason that corporate logo designers are paid big bucks. A symbol can instantly convey identity and associate emotion with that identity.

The first time I smoked DMT (below threshold) I saw this symbol:



turn into this symbol:



turn into a wolfs face (see how the eyes and nose have the same proportions as the cross and nepal eyes thing?)




That was the whole trip.

Symbols are amazing, almost like keys that fit into the keyholes in our minds.

I also remember thinking in burger king hamburger wrapper symbols as a child:



Once when I was really stoned I looked at this exon oil symbol and found it very striking:



For some reason when I'm high or tripping symbols have much more significance then in my normal daily life. Sometimes ordinary objects become powerful symbols to me - when I was in high school I was tripping on LSD and I saw a screwdriver, it became a symbol of all screwdrivers and the workers that used them. Suddenly the significance of what screwdrivers had done for the world really hit me profoundly. That's the first time I understood why a country might put a hammer and cycle on its flag:

Is it weird that I don't have any reverberating symbols in my mind?
