Michael Maier - Symbols of the Synthesis of the Great Alchemical Work, “Tripus Aureus“, 1618. Symbolism: 4 Sides = 4 Elements 3 Serpents = Tria Prima (Sulphur, Salt, Mercury) 2 Circles = Masculine and Feminine Properties Circle attached to the Tube = Hermetic Vase.

Hand with Eye of Providence and the Leviathan Cross. The Leviathan Cross is sometimes referred to the cross of Satan. Its is depicted on the bottom is an infinity sign (∞), and above is a double cross (‡). The Double cross symbolizes protection and balance between persons. The infinity sign underlines the constant and infinite nature and most likely symbolizes the eternal universe. An upside-down crucifix is  referred to as “The Cross of St. Peter” since, according to Origin of Alexandria, Simon Peter was crucified upside down. In alchemy, the Leviathan’s cross is a symbol for sulfur, which is one the three essential elements of nature. The association with the Leviathan makes it a symbol of depth and surfacing. The multiple crossroads of two crosses can be interpreted as a sign of free choice, it can also be seen as a stroke-through “equal-to” (=) to show that every person has their own life.
