Symbolism

Symbology in sexuality serves as a fascinating lens through which to explore the depths of human desire, connection, and expression. From ancient civilizations to modern cultures, symbols have played a crucial role in shaping attitudes, rituals, and understanding surrounding sexual experiences. Whether it’s the lush fertility symbolized by the ripe pomegranate in Greek mythology or the potent sensuality evoked by the lotus flower in Eastern traditions, symbols offer rich meanings that transcend language barriers and cultural divides. They provide a framework for expressing desires, fears, and aspirations, offering a sense of belonging and validation to individuals navigating their sexual identities. Moreover, symbols in sexuality often carry layers of interpretation, inviting introspection and dialogue about the complex interplay between body, mind, and spirit. 

At the heart of our inspiration for Lussuria lies Hathor, the goddess of love, beauty, and sensuality. Through her divine essence, we honor the power of passion, fertility, and pleasure in all aspects of our work. Each symbol we employ, from the sacred cat to the mesmerizing turquoise stone, carries layers of meaning deeply rooted in Egyptian tradition.

In this page dedicated to the symbology we use at Lussuria, we hope to help you understand the meaning behind each concept and help you get a feel of the beauty underlying a lifestyle filled with true sexual meaning long lost to humans.

The Logo

While Lussuria draws its primary inspiration from ancient Egyptian symbology, our logo incorporates symbols that resonate universally, reflecting our openness to an international audience.

Central to our logo is Hathor, revered as one of the most prominent goddesses in ancient mythology, celebrated for her association with joyful music and sensuality. In western culture Hathor’s corresponding gods are the Greek Aphrodite and the Roman Venus.

Depicted with cow horns adorned with a sun disk, Hathor embodies fertility, nourishment, and maternal care, while the sun symbolizes the masculine principle.

Within the sun lies the internationally recognized swingers symbol, crafted from three lines forming the semblance of a swing. The swing represents open relationships, swaps and shares, while the sun also doubles as a circle representing team, friendship, strong bonds and trust.

Hathor is depicted resting upon three moons, representing the stages of the feminine life cycle and the phases of the Moon—Maiden, Mother, and Crone—each with its own realm.

The juxtaposition of the Sun and Moon in the logo symbolizes balance between the Divine Masculine and Feminine.

At the heart of the center moon lies a Hexagram, rich in cultural significance, representing equilibrium between the sexes, with Lord Shiva embodied in the upward-facing triangle, signifying the Divine Masculine, and Goddess Shakti in the downward-facing triangle, symbolizing the Divine Feminine.
