"...A swastika is one of the most ancient and most frequently used symbols found all over the world. It is related to the symbol of the cross because of its 4 branches rotating around an immobile center, which could represent our Self, or the Pole. It symbolizes action, cycles, perpetual regeneration. It was widely used by Nazi Germany which is why everybody rejects it today. But in itself, it's a positive symbol. Good puzzle, nice and unusual design...."

"...Sing/plur errors in 6d and 12d. Some of clues not really applicable to answer, there are better clues available. Agree with the previous comment, if not "fan", the puzzle's shape more represents various religious symbols, both clockwise and counterclockwise orientations. ..."
