What does this symbol mean?

It looks like a very simplistic fremasonry symbol or a very simplistic nazi SA symbol. I looked up nazi occult symbols and saw both. Don't know. Research.

Or you can just simply look at the US dollar, the sun-lit capstone above the pyramid on the obverse (reverse) side of the Great Seal of the United States.

And the Occult Triangle and the Masonic Lodge.
In Coil's Masonic Encyclopedia we are told of the triangular chain, the legend taught by Freemasonry that Jewish Freemasons were carried as captives from Jerusalem to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar, being bound by triangular chains. The Babylonian King is said to have been gravely insulting the Jews by doing this because, to the Jews, the triangle, or delta symbol, was a symbol of their Deity.
The design of the 33rd degree jewel worn by the elite Mason is made up of interlocking triangles.

Rosicrucians commend the triangle within the circle, the very logo of Alcoholics Anonymous. This symbolizes perpetual movement (Hegelian dialectic) and the occult conception of the "Circle of Life". Just makes me wonder about the important part - the dot in the middle isn't in your symbol.

Also look up the Triangles subsidiary group - the Lucis Trust in 1937 founded which today encourages people across the globe to network by forming local three person triangle groups to come together often and meditate.

I will simply start with the logo of Alcoholics Anonymous if I were you which sounds the more normal stuff to find in somebody's notes.

Well i could be wrong but as someone has stated already it is on the dollar bill, and if i remember correctly it is used a lot in cults and stuff.... although that could just be the media making a mess of it or something. I've seen a lot of movies with a symbol like that one and most of the time the people are like satanists and stuff.
