View source for Thelemapedia:Symbols

The following templates allow you to easily incorporate various esoteric symbols and other useful elements into your pages. Simply use the template name in curly braces <nowiki>{{like this}}</nowiki>. Some look better when enlarged, but most are recognizable at the size of letters.

=== Example ===
To write {{sol}} in {{aries}}, {{luna}} in {{pisces}}, dies {{mars}}, Anno IV:xvii, simply use:

 <nowiki>{{sol}} in {{aries}}, {{luna}} in {{pisces}}, dies {{mars}}, Anno IV:xvii</nowiki>

'''Note:''' The templates for sun and sol are two different things! 

Where more than one template is listed, use any of those shown. Whichever is easiest for you to remember!
