I can't recall the details, but I seem to remember

Prince saying about the symbol that "for every man

there is a perfect female counterpart." So the symbol

was representing your soulmate.

Sounds like the best idea to me! That's what I was thinking...that the symbol represented this perfect fit between 1 man and 1 woman that was made for each other...I also think it adds a little flavor by being able to see a cross there...like the perfect love through GOD, by GOD, and because of GOD. That little added twist represents how creative love can be and how love reaches from one end to the next. I think Prince using it shows how he really views love between a man and a woman...its a perfect loved and should be celebrated and represented! Prince is deep. The symbol is AWESOME!

Prince is GORGEOUS. I'm inspired. GOD is GREAT. Is there anything else to say? lol

It means 'hermaphrodite.'

I've heard that a couple times! lol One of my friends told me at the Dec. 15th IZOD show, when we were standing in line to get ourselves a new symbol necklace, that it meant "bisexual." I was like "whatever! It represents Prince, so I"m proud to wear it...."

well, thanks for trying to tell native english users what to do with our own lanuage...we can twist and turn all we want...its STILL a free country...USA anyways..

Sorry but it's not YOUR language. English people created it, you just destroy it.

But it's ok if you feel free to be an ignorant.

I am a native English speaker. Born in America, lived all over Europe. London for 2 years...I know the English language more than u ever will, and I can use it however I wish, I'll chop it up, spin it..turn it upside down and spit it out at ya!. Don't be so jealous, just keep practicing!

There is no deep hidden secret mysterious spiritual occult voodoo magical meaning.


It means "Prince - The Brand"


It's just like any other logo for any large corporation. It's marketing and branding.


Don't be insane fools.

Adding to the discussion I did like the word play that it created when people would write Prince Symbol, the words combined could be pronounced Principle.

Yes it could if you say it fast, it rolls out just like principle! The symbol is a powerful statement created by Prince's creative imagination that represents so much...only PRINCE knows what it represents, since he is the one that created it, so we must go by what he says. It's the love symbol #2.

It could be seen also as this perfect combination between spirituality(the cross), sexuality(man sign) and love(woman sign)...Prince did say something along the lines of sex=spiritual union. And he often connects sex and love.

Or it could just be representative of GOD's perfect creation...man and then using a piece of man to create woman..explains why signs for man and woman are connected...

Who knows? It definately shows this perfect fit connecting the male and female signs. Could just represent what Prince views himself as...the beautiful, unique, and perfect mix of male and female (he admitting to being in touch with his fem side) created by GOD!

Prince is GORGEOUS. I'm inspired. GOD is GREAT. Is there anything else to say? lol

No, you see, 'prince symbol' has an M in it, 'principle' does not. They are not homonyms, even when said quickly.


Also, Prince did not create his symbol, Prince paid to have his symbol created by someone else.
