Triad Claw Symbolism
The “triad claw” is a Marrano gesture which signals the letters M & W, symbolizing 666 from the three V’s. The letter V is “waw” in Hebrew and “vav” in Gematria and is the 6th letter in both. This hand sign has been linked to freemasonry but predates it back to approximately the 1200’s. Many have tied the hand sign to the Rosicrucian’s, Jesuits, and Knights of Malta.
