Labyris

Lesbian-Dyke- Amazon

   Way before history, the Amazon tradition thrived from Ghana to Ireland, from the Amazon River basin to South Asia.  Matriarchal culture stayed strong on ancient Crete, and the Labyris-the doublebladed axe- was at the center.  The Labyris comes from a time when women lived equal and free.  It symbolizes power and strength, transformation and the Goddess.  Labyris takes its name from labia and gives its name to labyrinth, place of initiation.

Triangle

   The Triangle is a symbol of Gay and Lesbian identity, community and pride.  It says that we are Out, standing up, unifying across the breath-taking diversity of our kind, and that we are committed to our freedom and our lives.  The triangle is also an ancient glyph for vulva, for the Feminine.  Perhaps for this reason it was used during the European madness 60 years ago to mark "undesireables" for isolation and death.  Triangles marking Gay men were pink, we've heard that Lesbians got black ones.  The triangle was reclaimed by the Gay Liberation movement in the '70's as a symbol both of resistance to oppression ("Silence=Death") and of Lesbian and Gay Pride.
