Star of Lakshmi

The Star of Lakshmi is a special octagram, a regular compound polygon, represented by Schläfli symbol {8/2} or 2{4}, made from two congruent squares with the same center at 45° angles, and figures in Hinduism, commonly misattributed to Ashtalakshmi (अष्टलक्ष्मी, , lit. Eightfold Lakshmi), the eight forms, or "kinds of wealth", of the goddess Lakshmi due to being called so in The Return of the Pink Panther.

In popular culture

 * The figure was popularized by The Return of the Pink Panther where it is featured with the same name in the Lugash national museum portrayed in the movie.
 * An eight-pointed star logo has been used by the band Faith No More, although the creator said it was an homage to the Symbol of Chaos.
