Upward and Downward Flow Symbolism

Ups and downs.

Image A's fish net is drawn like the flag symbol, having a wavy path indicating downward flow direction.

Etheric high-density is also often shown with crosshatch and transparency, so this net is very clever.

The "Y" at the top of the other stick is usually an upward flow symbol.

The different phrygean caps is somewhat confusing, because even the left one, I regard as a loop-back symbol, fairly equivalent to the hat that droops downward.

Image B is easy, water being a downward side flow, smoke being an upward side flow symbol, going from one torus up to a higher one, and skipping the head-torus in the middle.

Image C may have been shown before.

The upward sword and the loop-back tail for the other side of the pattern.
