You might get more views and help in Chaos magick,if anyone can identify sigils it's the Chaotes,lol.But seriously.

It could be anything,a personal sigil or a random artpiece/doodle.

It's hard to work these things out without supplemental information,sometimes.

Why not post this in the Chaos folder too.I can move the post for you,but but not leave a shadow here. So,if you repost manually,this one can stay here too. :)

i'm back with more details.

this sign i saw it scratched on a wood table at my grand parents home, on a small village. yesterday, i meet a local villager , who also is a bit insane and sayed to me : "that is the dragon sign.but why it has the tail on fire?" in that moment i sayed :"bullshit!" and i laughed.
Could be thrue? or he just wanted to fool me.

Well,why not explore what the villager said?

A 'dragon with it's tail on fire',perhaps there are some local folklore,stories or a landmark named thusly.Look at the history of the area,see if you can find clues that way.Also ask other villagers?

It reminds me of the kind of sigils you get when you take all the letters of your statement of intent and overlay them on eachother, the kicker is that those types of sigil are basically indecipherable. I think the dragon angle is probably the best bet for an answer also

This is a tough one, it isn't found in Dictionary of Occult, Hermetic and Alchemical Sigils by Fred Gettings. Many Sigils are written with the sole purpose of protecting it from being deciphered. Without knowing the person that wrote it, I think its a lost cause. I wish you the best of luck though.

Honestly, that symbol could be anything. It's not a Hebrew or Arabic symbol. Almost looks Asian, maybe Chinese. Try looking up just normal characters first. You found it carved in a wood table? Could just be someone playing around. I can't see many reasons a table would have a rune or sigil on it unless the table itself was used for something. I draw symbols up all the time for fun. haha.

I can definitely say that this is not Chinese, Korean or Japanese. It is also not Linear B. A sigil is sometimes written in a moment in time when the mind sees something. It needs to be written with the most utmost urgency, because just a minute later it can be gone, or maybe many pieces of it gone. The person that wrote that may have had nothing else but a knife and the table to record that sigil before it would be lost for ever. A sigil can be a complex concept, it can be a pattern of landmarks in the astral realms, to help a person somehow find that specific place in the Astral Realms on returning. Anyway I'm rambling :/
