I practiced a Japanese/Chinese martial art called "Kempo" some years back.
Our sensei (teacher) had his this old bag adorned with a mirror image
swastika which is the symbol for this particular branch of chinese boxing.
It felt kinda funny seeing that symbol there, but it helped knowing that
they actually had it way before the 1930's. 

Yes, I know this is for posting pictures, here is my somewhat lame
contribution - a four-armed spiral galaxy right out of my research:
