These iconic items also can take on a life of their own, such as Aphrodite\\\'s mirror, which in stylized form is also used as the astrological symbol for the planet Venus and the icon for \\\"female\\\" (just as Ares\\\'s spear and shield became the symbol for the planet Mars and the icon for \\\"male\\\").

** ClassicalMythology:
*** The Aegis carried by Athena
*** Hermes\\\'s winged sandals
*** Poseidon\\\'s trident
** NorseMythology:
*** Thor\\\'s hammer
*** Odin\\\'s staff
*** Freyja and the Brisingamen

I\\\'m putting this in the discussion section just in case anyone wants an explanation and I\\\'m no longer around to explain.
