Description:

The symbol ᾤ is a combination of the Greek lowercase letters ω (omega) and ι (iota) with a rough breathing mark (῾) above it. 1. Linguistic Origin: In ancient Greek, this symbol represented the diphthong /oi/. It was used in Greek texts for phonetic transcription. 2. Esoteric Meanings: In esoteric and spiritual contexts, the combination of ω and ι could be interpreted as a unity of divine power (omega symbolizing infinity and iota representing the smallest unit). The rough breathing mark could suggest a sense of aspiration or spiritual breath. 3. Symbolic Usage: While there are not specific known esoteric meanings associated with this particular combination of letters, the omega and iota letters themselves have held symbolic significance in various ancient and modern traditions. Omega has been linked to the concept of completion, eternity, or the divine, while iota can symbolize the divine spark within humans or beginnings. This symbol may have been used allegorically to represent unity, divinity, or the eternal nature of the soul.
