Where did it come from?
In 1975, I needed a picture rather than
a word for the concept of the creative principle
of the whole, such as God, and the search for the
whole self (which I called Wholeo). One
day I asked the question directly (how does
Wholeo look?). Immediately the answer came in
a simple vision of the symbol. I've used it ever
since. 
Over time it has deepened in imagery and
meaning.
In 1996, related to Böhme's
symbol. In 2009, a related
root in Labrys.
In 2011, use of the wholeo symbol function within
the Place
of the Noosphere in Cosmic Evolution poster.
In 2013, as "bowl-shaped magnetic field emitters" demonstrated scientifically in The Primer video series.

What does it mean?
Consider a circle. Commonly, a circle is an expression of wholeness
or completeness. It can encircle everything. Buckminster Fuller helped me
understand that whenever we inscribe a form, we usually think of what is
inside the form. But the form consists of what is inside and all
that is outside the outline we have drawn. For example, if you draw a circle
around the equator of the earth, what is inside your circle? It could be
that you have outlined the southern or the northern hemisphere on the surface
of the earth.
The circle is a good
symbol of consciousness, with the focus as a point in the center. The
Wholeo symbol collapses what is inside the circle of consciousness to the
point. That is the eye of Wholeo. The Wholeo symbol wraps the outside of the
circle to two outward facing cups. These cups are open to all. The cups leave
the all undefined and unenclosed. It could be described as an interface to
what is within and without.
The vibe shapes radiating from the center express the awareness at the
point of consciousness contained in the Wholeo symbol.
What is the use?
The Wholeo symbol helps describe abstract concepts such as the big
bang, body positions such as the spiritual experience of doing a back bend,
historical symbols such as the chalice, geometric dynamics such as parts
of a torus, or anything with a dual focus. It can be a modifier or a verb.
I will provide many more graphics.
Digital images of Wholeo, the symbol, are collecting. Time to start a gallery.
Here are some images from lostNfound

Wholeo
symbol or logo is an
expanded circle or sphere. It often has a central inner eye and radiates
vibe shapes. To the right is the original online version.
On December 21, 2012 shift happened. Wholeo symbol rotated 90° counter-clockwise (that is, to the left). The symbol has spun and rotated at the Noint Joint before, as envisioned in the movie on that page. Also as visualized in the pineal as shown in this movie. I guess I'll find more to say about the profound implications of this turn of events in time. Usually image (vision) precedes words (expression as verbal meaning). It will take time to propagate this change where it applies throughout this website, wholeo.net. Also there is more to the vision than the skeleton, the opened circle. To come. Promises, ... promises, ... enough come true to keep me going.
