Fleur de lis means ...like a blooming flower,what we know is limited but what what needs to be explored is unlimited. The 2 petals to the right and left represent that insight has been gained.The main bulb means there is more wisdom/ knowledge/ insight to be gained.... It is a symbol with message ...simply meaning " keep seeking/ exploring the unknown is infinite"

A noter que la Fleur de Lys est aussi sur la couronne des rois et reines ... anglais. ^^ Et oui ne pas oublier la longue histoire commune des deux pays avec les fameux "Rois Français d'Angleterre" (dont le dernier représentant est "Richard Cœur de Lion"), qui durant près de 3 siècles fondèrent l'Angleterre et l'organisation qu'elle connait encore aujourd'hui. "Dieu et mon Droit" et "Honnie soit qui mal y pense" en français dans le texte...

In the Hungarian tradition, in our ancient writing, liliom is the reading of two syllables from top to bottom. The reading means god (in Hungarian: IS-TEN). The upper, larger part of the symbol containing two lilies represents the parent god, the lower, smaller lily represents the child god. It was put on a compass so that we remember that God shows the true direction. The king's scepter and crown were placed in order to remember that the king's power comes from God.

I've read somewhere that the symbol is associated with the flower called the Nile-Lotus from ancient Egypt. If you complete the lines and create a 360 degree 3D shape of the symbol, a donut shape will appear. Fleur-de-lis symbolizes the Torus energy field system, which is the underlying energy in all, it constitutes the eather / matrix under the firmament. This wide-spectrum energy frequency is also a medium that the prevailing power manipulates its subjects through. The center vertical section shows the Earth's magnetic center point. (In the center of the Antarctic Circle, the North Pole). An extremely magnetic and heavenly tall mountain called Mt. Meru, which otherwise goes by many names. The power generated here is also behind the light phenomenon Aurora Borealis, the Northern Lights. The star Polaris, is always fixed in the zenith of this mountain. Operation DEW-Line made sure to conceal this fact in the 50s and 60s. The same applies to the Antarctic, which encloses our plane Earth.

I disagree. It is a symbol a representation of a torture instrument for disemboweling. The point is to pierce and make a hole in flesh and the sides were sharpened on the inside curve and placed in the hole and pulled to open the body cavity and pull out the internals. This is shown in a movie with Mel Gibson where he is tortured to death at the end of the movie and yelling FREEDOM. Amazing how it is shown as something wonderful.

LOL! Amazing how it is shown as something wonderful? How bout...amazing how some people will believe anything, and lack the basic entry-level common sense to research it, insisting their nonsensical opinions are fact, even when based on nothing more than something read in a blog, seen in a movie, or the opinion of other equally dense individuals. So ya, feel free to "disagree" all you like. Doesn't make it so.
