Eye of Providence
Triangle-enclosed watching symbol
The Eye of Providence is an eye enclosed within a triangle, often surrounded by rays of light.
The symbol represents divine watchfulness or God's omniscience—the all-seeing eye observing humanity.
It appears on the reverse of the U.S. one-dollar bill above an unfinished pyramid.
The symbol has older Christian associations but is now commonly linked to Freemasonry and, in conspiracy theories, to shadowy organizations controlling world events.
