    Default Nazi Occult Item?

    I recently acquired a bizarre handkerchief that I believe is a Nazi Occult item. I got it in the USA, but no one I know has been able to identify where it came from or what it is. I am posting pics here in the hopes that someone in the forum can tell me what it is.

    It is about 2.5X2.5 feet in size. It has the goats head at opposite top and bottom corners, swastikas in a pattern all over it and what appears to be different animal tracks all along the borders.
    If you know what this is or have seen it before, please let me know.
    Thanks.

    This one is looks like Indian to me, there a lot of nations in the world who use swastika in their national designs ( Finns, Latvia at least)

    Yes the fact that some of the crooked crosses are reversed is sort of random and that is why I would agree somewhat with the other poster. I have seen Japanese stuff for sale with reversed swastika like symbols too. Then again you might advertise it with your first hunch on ebay and see if anyone bites!

    In my opinion you are on a wrong way, that’s not a Nazi swastika ... in fact this symbol has a lot of meanings in different cultures and in different historical periods.
    Take a look at Swastika - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia to learn something more about it.

    The swastika is a symbol of good luck in some Asian countries. The Nazis didn't have much luck with it though.

    Just a thought, other than the goats head in the corners, it really does look more like American Native symbols since the "swastika" was a Nazi Occult symbol ONLY when the arms "point to the right as you look at it". In Nazi beliefs this was deliberate to focus the energy on "Domination/Conquest" the power to overcome like the Blitzkrieg tactics. I believe that the Navajo used the opposing direction "wheel" to indicate synergy of efforts. It could be another tribe but, the basic concept I have heard confirmed by several scholars of symbolism, that the Nazi's deliberately "changed the direction" in an effort to invoke pure power to crush rather than the synergy of directing the "energy" in the opposite pattern.

    the early Nazis had it going both ways when they started, took a while to get it right!
