a pyramid with an eye on the top symbolise the all-seeing eye - an eye that sees all and nothing can be hidden from it. this defines desire to get all fact and knowledge.
a cube with an ear on the bottom symbolise my view of religion. with just a view who realise, a cube contains a cross - the spread form of a cube. it symbolises my opinion that when people decides to take any religion as their faith, they should keep it personal, no need to announce it out loud, no need to overpersuade other people to do their religion obligations. while the ear on the cube means the religious should also open for any teaching and opinion from any other religion.
on the left, a tree rooting on a brain. symbolise desire to be able to think deeper and be a fundamental person who has strong reasons and fundaments in any words and deeds. not a nonsenses and meaningless deeds.
an upward hand with an ankh symbol carved on it symbolises desire to be able to work and fight to earn living with our own hands. ankh is the egyptian symbol of regeneration. therefore it also symbolises life. the upward hand means desire to reach something, keeps the ankh in it's proper position. and if the hand turns downward, the ankh would be inverted to the opposite position. and the opposite of life is death.
the linking lines through those imageries means that all those conceptions should be linked each other and complete each other.
on the center of it all, a sphere contains half sun and half moon with a writing "carpe diem carpe noctem" around. the writing means "seize the day seize the night", a latin phrase as reminder to not waste the time and live life to the fullest.
