[edit] Summary

One basic version of the labrys symbol, a stylized form of the ancient Cretan double-bladed axe sometimes used in modern times to symbolize lesbianism and/or matriarchy and/or neo-pagan goddess-worship (the common denominator being women's "strength and self-sufficiency").

For another symbol with related meaning, see Image:Woman-power emblem.svg .
