What is the origin of these symbols---₪ ø lll ·o.---?
₪ ø lll ·o. <<<That is the rough type interpretation of them...these are the legit symbols: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/nebari_at_hea...
Yes, they are the 30 Seconds to Mars symbols! I'm doing an art project, concerning outer space and am considering incorporating them into my project, except I know I should understand more about them first. As far as I know, the symbols represent the first four planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. My question: Is that correct, and what culture did these symbols come from? Or were they simply designed by someone for the band? Thank you in advance for answers :)

The four mysterious glyphics have two different meanings as far as I understand. The first explanation is that they symbolize each of the four terrestrial planets. The first symbol is two intertwined "M's" which could stand for Mercury. The second symbol looks like it is rotating in the opposite direction and Venus rotates in the opposite direction of all the terrestrial planets. The third symbol is the roman numeral three which stands for Earth, the third planet from the sun. The fourth symbol is Mars. The two dots represent both of Mars's moons Phobos and Deimos.
The second explanation is that they stand for the bands name. The first symbol is two intertwined threes representing 30. The second symbol is rotating in the opposite direction, almost as if it is counting down which symbolizes seconds. The third symbol is three vertical lines, but if you look in between them you get the roman numeral two which stands for to. The last symbol represents Mars once again, with its two moons Phobos and Deimos.
A last (and my favorite) interpretation:
Meaning of the symbols (glyphs):
1st Symbol - intertwined 3's standing for 30.
2nd Symbol - Clock Hands pointing counterclockwise supposed to mean Seconds.
3rd Symbol - An inverted Roman Numeral of 2
4th Symbol - Drawing of Mars. the two dots represent Phobos and Deimos, Mars' moons.
