Summary

Description

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