Comment on If an ear is an icon for sound, and a nose is an icon for smell, what's a good icon for thought?

    Nice. I didn’t know that.

    Me, I would include thought as a sense. And I might even throw in various vague feelings and energies in there too. Which would render the whole sensory field a semi-defined, semi-undefined kind of smear.

    So I guess I’m looking for something that says “senses” without being too explicit as to the number or whatever. Something abstracter.

    But that said, the pentagram is way better than anything I’ve found so far. Thanks.
