Symbol 30:24

3013a

30:24 · The sign for the Eastern star, i.e. the planet Venus as the Morning star. It is quite common among the tribal peoples in Africa and the Americas, and drawn both with and without a surrounding circle. For its historical background and origins, see 2713 in Group 27 and 2911 in Group 29. This particular version was found on a photograph of the Apache chief Geronimo, who lived during the nineteenth century. The sign was on his headgear.
    Compare with 2828 found on the headgear of the cruel Vlad, Count Dracula, on a fifteenth-century painting. In both cases the star associates to 41a07 in its role as a war divinity. Note that in the United States a very similar ideogram has been used on fighter jets and tanks.
