The Heraldic Coat of Arms

The Tribe 13 Coat of Arms has an outer and an inner symbolism. At a outer level we have the wolf dragon that was the war banner of a very powerful ancient warrior people called ” Dacians ” a sub-group of the Thracian.

The draco was undoubtedly seen by the army as a special protective symbol, while it also played an important role in the religious life of the people.

 

A special relation existed between Dacians and the wolves. They called themselves “wolves” or “ones the same with wolves”. At a mythological level is referring to the existence of a ritual that provides one with the ability to turn into a wolf. Such a ritual was presumably a military initiation, potentially reserved to a secret brotherhood of warriors. To become formidable warriors they would assimilate behavior of the wolf, wearing wolf skins during the ritual. The same practice we find at the Berserkers Vikings but also other warrior tribes. 

The shield is symbolizing Protection. The tribe members must be great protectors of their families and of their community.

In the middle of the shield we have a red cross, a symbolic connection with The Knights Templar that they were warrior monks, the elite forces of the medieval era, masters in the art of war but also masters of the inner alchemy. 

 

The Sword is symbolizing honor in battle. The Axe is the symbol of military service and duty . The Arrow is the symbol of readiness. All are weapons that symbolize the combat qualities of a warrior tribe member. He will study and practice until he will be a master of combat skills.

Because a true warrior is not only a master of combat skills but also a master of the inner war, walking the path of spiritual transformation,
at an inner level the wolf is symbolizing your consciousness in pure natural state. The symbolism of the axe is severance of the material and worldly aspects of ones existence, attachment. The arrow is symbolize controlling of desire and the sword  represent the cutting of ignorance.
