The Glyphs

The current set of glyphs is considered to be the "original" one, in the sense that these specific glyphs seem to be a creation of the band. They do not bear the same similarities to ancient script as the first set of glyphs.

30 Seconds to Mars have always been oblivious to what any of the symbols mean. So what follows is an Echelon interpretation, based on multiple theories from the community — specially those discussed and presented thorough the years on the official 30STM forum.

Mars Mythology

The first glyph is composed by two intertwined 3. Such combination provides a hole in the middle, composing "30", the first word (number) in the band's name.

The second glyph is a circle with clock hands, which are pointing counterclockwise. It represents Seconds.

The third glyph is the inverted Romanic symbol for 2: II (as a negative picture) which in English is read "two" - "to"

Mars Mythology

The fourth glyph represents Mars with its two moons around, Phobos and Deimos.

So you have a very literal representation of Thirty Seconds To Mars.

But.... What if there is another meaning?

The first glyph would be a pictograph of the two Letos: Leto x2, Leto-Leto entangled.

It is the same viewed from the top and bottom, resembling China's Yin-Yang: male/female, assertive/receptive. Creativity needs both to be completed: Jared and Shannon share that . None is top or bottom, energy flows between them.

-Bird that according to Egyptian mythology lived in the desert for 500 years and then consumed in fire. Later reborn from its own ashes.

-Constellation located in the southern hemisphere. - Means many things: Renaissance, great power struggle. In astronomy, the phoenix is one of the constellations of the southern

hemisphere. The constellation is assimilated to an elongated bird taking flight. The constellation has been known as The Boat by Arabs. It is about a small constellation. The approximate extent of the constellation is to àí41 ¬ ∞, ∞ ¬ àí57 decline, and from 23.5 h to 2 h of right ascension. This means it is usually invisible to anyone living north of the 40th parallel in the northern hemisphere, and remains low in the sky for the living to the north of Ecuador. It is easily visible from places like Australia and South Africa during the Southern Hemisphere summer.

ARGUS APROCAPHEX

On discs in different places is written the phrase FIND THE ARGUS APOCRAPHEX ( " Seek Apocraphex Argus ").

Argus : comes from Argos. Greek city of that part with Jason Argonauts group that will conquer embarción for the Golden Fleece . The ship on which they traveled was called Argo in honor of its builder . This group of adventurers had the protection of the goddess Athena who provided the ship magical powers . The ship had an oracular power whenever their sailors in the bow inserted a piece of oak of Dodona , around the issue , and in honor of Athena victory would turn the ship in the constellation known by the name of Argos.

Apocraphex : apocriphus comes from , from the ancient Greek term ìKRYPHOS √ AP , which means Auno included as standard which leads to the implicit meaning : hidden , secret.

Later apocriphus acquires meaning : not authentic or genuine referiendo books , written ..

We are encouraged to search for something that we know what it is when we find it and found that Jason will not stop until we find q following the clues left us both in the scripts of the disks and videos.

The arrow is the representation for "Provehito in Altum" into the unknown.

It also refers to Norse term for Tyr / Tiwaz the sky god in Norse mythology.

Meanings: honor, justice, leadership and authority. Analysis rationality. Knowing where our strengths lie. Reversed or tiwaz Merkstave: our energy and creative activity are blocked. Mental paralysis, over-analysis, sacrifice, injustice, imbalance. The fight, war, conflict, failure in competition. Decreased passion, difficulties in communication and possible separation.

Mars Mythology

Each glyph may stand for one of the four terrestrial planets: the first for Mercury; the second Venus, rotating in the opposite direction; the third is the Earth - third planet from the sun; and the fourth is Mars.

The first set of glyphs

These are referred to as “iberian glyphs" or “norse runes”, as they look similar to the ancient iberian script

Runic writing was used in southern Europe and was carried North. The band may have adapted these symbols, which are thousand of years old, giving them a meaning we do not know.

The iberic alphabet

Page 14: Mithology Of Mars

Echelon Conference LISBON 2012

Portugal & Spain

All astrological and alchemy symbols are based in this Mediterranean alphabet. So the place we are standing in today is deeply connected to the Mars mythology.

Page 15: Mithology Of Mars

Echelon Conference LISBON 2012

What do they mean? First glyph is Jupiter

The second is a broken time glass

The third is the moon

The fourth is Neptune

Page 16: Mithology Of Mars

Echelon Conference LISBON 2012

Really? Or...

The third glyph may also mean active intellect“ opposing the next one 3 lines crossed meaning "disordered intellect".

Page 17: Mithology Of Mars

Echelon Conference LISBON 2012

Mars is... Music What if both sets of glyphs compose

a musical scale? The first glyph of both sets is similar and may be a musical note. A music scale has 7 notes and the 8th is a repetition. So the glyph that we think is "30" may just be a superimposition of the iberic glyph:

+ =

However...If you read the glyphs for what they look

like

it says ENDEAnd they are placed at the END of the CD.

PHOENIX (MITHRA)

The Mithra is an adaptation of the Phoenix, a giant, sacred bird, that represents the Sun in egyptian mythology. This bird would die at night and be reborn at sunrise, having beautiful gold and red feathers and living for 500 years.

At the end of this time, the bird would build a nest, light it and throw itself into the flames; from the ashes, a new Phoenix was born. So the meaning is: life, rebirth and immortality.

The Phoenix also represents the highest stage of evolution of the sign Scorpio, which symbolizes life and death.

ECHELON x CROSS

The ECHELON Symbolism - ECHELON means to attack in waves. It's a military term which was

used by Napoleon during the Napoleonic wars. The term was to attack "En Echelon", (in waves). Echelon word itself means waves, which would make sense in the song "Echelon" - when the song goes "What's with the fascination with the Echelon".

- The X is a mathematical symbol for multiplication. In a spatial sense, it symbolizes diversity / versatility - "united under one banner," and is therefore used as a symbol for the Echelon. It marks the point of a hidden heart, and it is the goal for a personal seek. So, the

X Cross symbolizes the union around the band.

The Arrow This might be the Tîwaz or Teiwaz Rune, named after the

Norse god Tyr. The Rites of Odin by Ed Fitch says that Tyr is "the invincible warrior of the Nordic pantheon, and far older than all the others of Asgard“

Page 22: Mithology Of Mars

Echelon Conference LISBON 2012

Provehito in Altum The upwards arrow is also a visual representation of

PROVEHITO IN ALTUM = Launch forth into the deep. Reach for the highest

The Tyr rune means motivation and determination; direction and ambition, a desire for progression or advancement

“It denotes victory in battle, divine justice, honor, and represents martial values and attributes. It brings to the wearer strength of purpose, power of will and a drive to a higher purpose. This rune was once carved on weapons to bring victory, and even now it's considered by some to be particularly useful to anyone involved in a physical, legal, or moral conflict”

Trinity

The Trinity The three skulls represent the Trinity of Mind, Body

and Soul. So, along with the arrows, the Trinity symbol basically means that when you do something, you should do it with your everything and be devoted to the fullest, if you truly believe in it.

SUBSISTO PROCUL NUSQUAM

SUBSISTO : to stand, withstand, stop, halt, cease, stay. To be there.PROCUL: far, at, to, from a distance.NUSQUAM: nowhere, on no occasion. Nowhere in no place. Nothing for nothing. Never.

So: Stop at Nowhere. Stop At Nothing..

Page 25: Mithology Of Mars

Echelon Conference LISBON 2012

BUT

There are other possible meanings, like “To be far from nowhere/anywhere”. Maybe Greenland? A reference to A Beautiful Lie theme?

The two arrows mimic the recycling symbol. The whole thing might be: Stop at nothing in saving the Earth. Let’s get sustainable, Echelon

Triad

The triad appeared on the THIRD album

One of the 5 elements described by Plato was the tetrahedron. Meaning fire. Which is the equivalent of planet MARS in astronomy.

The triangle is one of the strongest of all geometric forms. Force is distributed evenly across all sides when pressure is applied

This is like the band: only gotten stronger in spite of all the trouble they faced.

Some have said that the three sides of the triangle represent the members of the band

The middle line probably represents The ECHELON , because it provides additional support and strength.

Orbis Epsilon It uses previous symbols

to create a new one: A round shape, divided in the middle (yin/yang), with spears (arrows)

It’s a symbol for War and a shield.

Epsilon is also the lowest of five castles in the novel "Brave new World"

Small and circular formation of troops.

Page 29: Mithology Of Mars

Echelon Conference LISBON 2012

The circle being split is the rune symbol for EARTH

Page 30: Mithology Of Mars

Echelon Conference LISBON 2012

ORBIS EPSILON Orbis means circle (Earth/World) Epsilon is the 5th letter of the Greek

alphabet, our E. Epsilon means in Greek "simple E"; a second meaning is "an arbitrary small positive quantity, in mathematical analysis".

So we have: a circle of small positive quantity, a simple E…

What?... a simple circle of

ECHELON
