I have linked everything, check the source for teh symbol. I stated it COULD even spell ISIS if you double the S. But the image above LOOKS like the $ sign, so it does support the THEORY.
But if we all added things we could see faces in the clouds faces in the tea leaves the mind boggles
but that would be conjecture not proof do you follow?
But without the extra s it does not spell ISIS but isi or if it is human thigh bones then it would be
tibia or fibia or whatever other word you would call them with the s the classic you only see what you want to see ... and mixing them words up jumbling them up i could spell all sorts my lady...

Human anatomy
The femur is the only bone in the thigh. The two femurs converge medially towards the knees, where they articulate with the proximal ends of the tibiae. The angle of convergence of the femora is a major factor in determining the femoral-tibial angle. In females the femora converge more than in males because the pelvic bone is wider in females. In the condition genu valgum (knock knee) the femurs converge so much that the knees touch one another. The opposite extreme is genu varum (bow-leggedness). In the general population of people without either genu valgum or genu varum, the femoral-tibial angle is about 175 degrees.[1]
The femur is the longest, heaviest and by most measures the strongest bone in the human body. Its length is 26% of the persons height, a ratio that is useful in anthropology because it offers a basis for a reasonable estimate of a subject's height from an incomplete skeleton.
The femur is categorised as a long bone and comprises a diaphysis, the shaft (or body) and two epiphysis or extremities that articulate with adjacent bones in the hip and knee.[1]
“This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. That number is 666.”

Did you read the post? It claims that there is a Square and Compasses placed over the unfinished pyramid. This is high school-level geometry. Do you see a Square?

I think is a reference to the carpenters square below the compass.

So it's not a square and compass...
...it's a hexagram or the seal of Solomon.
A hexagram (Greek) or sexagram (Latin) is a six-pointed geometric star figure with Schläfli symbol [6|2], 2[3], or [[3]]. It is the compound of two equilateral triangles. The intersection is a regular hexagon. source
Is that cleared up now?
Tis a grand coincedence that it spells mason at its points.....or is it?

If the symbol was not symectical, different size triangles ect, I'd agree it was a stretch, but it's not.... Just abit elongated.
What shape you you call that being versed in geometry the way you are.... Surely it has a name?
Freemasonry is an unofficial branch of the governments of Great Britain and the United States, and these governments see to it that the subject of Freemasonry is not discussed in the school systems. After young men and sometimes women demonstrate that they can keep the harmless secrets of Masonic ceremonies, passwords and signs they become prime candidates for key positions in government agencies.
Let’s go ahead and examine the symbols on the one dollar bill and find the hidden Masonic influence. The largest symbol on the dollar bill is the portrait of George Washington. Masons for many years have taken great pride in the fact that George Washington was an ardent Mason. He was a member of two lodges (plural membership being permitted in Virginia), he was the charter Master of Alexandria Lodge, later changed to Alexandria-Washington Lodge. He took his oath of office as President of the United States on the Bible of St. John’s Lodge of New York City, and took part in Masonic ceremonies in laying the corner stone of the capital in Washington, D.C.
[In the Great Seal of the United States, as pictured on the back of the one dollar bill, is an eagle whose right wing has 32 feathers, the number of ordinary degrees in Scottish Rite Freemasonry. The left wing has 33 feathers, the additional feather corresponding to the Thirty-Third Degree of the Scottish Rite conferred for outstanding Masonic service. The 9 feathers in the tail correspond to the nine degrees in the York Rite.
The eagle is a symbol of St. John the Evangelist, the great patron of Freemasonry. The arrows in its left talon refer to King David, a man of many wars and of much bloodshed. The olive branch in its right talon, the peaceful reign of Solomon who built the temple at Jerusalem. The 13 stars above the eagle’s head represent Jacob and his 12 sons or tribes of Israel and form the star of David which reminds a Masons of King David’s dream of building a temple which his son King Solomon finally realized. The 13 stars, in double triangular form and one in the center, are symbolical of the delivery of the children of Israel from their oppressors and their attainment to a glorious freedom. The latin inscription “E Pluribus Unum” (one composed of many) indicates brotherhood to the Masonic fraternity.
The unfinished pyramid showing two sides of thirteen layers is entirely Masonic. At the top of the pyramid inside a radiant triangle is the all-seeing eye of Providence that indicates that the Grand Architect (the Masonic term for God) is omnisciently and providentially watching mankind. The pyramid is Egyptian in origin and form, and a free interpretation of its symbolism reads: As the Israelites were delivered from bondage in the land of the Pharaohs and the pyramids of Egypt, so we are now free in our own country, and hereafter we will build for ourselves.
At the top of the Treasury Seal is a balance scale. Among the ancients a balance, or pair of scales , was a well-known recognized symbol of justice and fair dealing. This symbol is also recognized by Masonry in the degree of Prince of Jerusalem, the 16th degree in the Scottish Rite.
The Seal used on the first one dollar bill in 1862 had a Mason’s set square not a chevron. Until 1893 two treasury Seals were used, one with the Mason’s square and another with a chevron. Between the years 1893 and 1968 a Treasury Seal with only the Mason’s square was exclusively used. In 1968 the Masonic square was discontinued and afterwards only a chevron has been depicted between the scale and key.
The Treasurer is an officer found in all Masonic bodies whose duty it is to take charge of the funds and pay them out under proper regulations. He is simply the banker of the Lodge or Chapter and has nothing to do with the collection of money which should be made by the Secretary. The Treasurer’s jewel (symbolic of Masonic office) is a key as a symbol that he controls the money chest of the Masonic Lodge./ex]
In America, the Masons have achieved their highest level of secrecy by hiding the ultimate in political power in the Constitution of September 17, 1787. Secret societies use stealth and subversion to hide their real motive, which is the acquisition and the manipulation of power for the personal benefit of their members. George Washington was a Mason and he used that secret society’s clandestine methods to take over the government in America for the personal benefit of his fellow Masons.
Washington took this oath in a whispered voice, while his left hand rested on a Masonic Bible borrowed from a nearby Masonic Lodge:
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

This image shows the dollar sign as a sigil of the earth mother, ISIS/$$:
There is no two $$ or isis as there is only one (s) on the ring counting for the $ sign which comes to isi or just plain $.. the op's words not mine sir/mam/?...
No hostility aimed at anyone.
The op claimed it depicts the word isis which it does not it it clearly missing the vital s for her argument.

Yeah, a conspiragram

OP is not making up this claim. The claim that this is a symbol of Isis comes originally from a book titled "Thirty Three Candles," so I would imagine OP is just repeating what she has read elsewhere. However you try to make it sound like OP is making some reaching speculation, which she is not.

Further, your attempt at debunking shows a clear lack of understanding into occult symbolism, and symbolism in general. I have seen company or organiztional logos which depict initials, where a repeated letter was omitted. And many logos are, of course, similar to a "sigil." I wish i could think of one off the top of my head to show you as an example. Perhaps I'll think of one later.
What I can show you, is just one example of this kind of sigil legitimately being used in "occult" practices. An occultist by the name of A.O. Spare wrote about a method of sigil creation where first the object or desire is made into a sentence, phrase, or single word, second-- the repeating letters are "crossed out" or omitted and the remaining letters are then combined in some fashion to create a "sigil" representative of the original word, phrase, or sentence.
"But you said repeated letters are omitted, and that's not the case here" I can almost hear you protesting now.
Sure thing. But understand this is only one method, and is being offered as an example that this sort of thing is, indeed, used in the occult.
