Imaginary blazon of Sir Gawain, knight of the Round Table.

Gules, a mullet voided, interlaced Or.

Illuminated and a freehand finishing.

This five-pointed mullet, depicted as a pentangle, is the symbol Sir Gawain bears on his coat of arms according to the poem «Sir Gawain and the Green Knight» which reads: «Thenne they shewed hym the schelde, that was of schyre goules Wyth the pentangel depaynt of pure golde hwes. He braydez hit by the bauderyk, aboute his hals kestes, That bisemed the segge semlyly fayre. And quy the pentangel apendez to that prynce noble I am entent yow to telle, thof tary hyt me schulde: Hit is a syngne that Salamon set sumquyle In bytoknyng of trawthe, bi tytle that hit habbez, For hit is a figure that haldez fyve poyntez, And vche lyne vmbelappez and loukez in other, And ayquere hit is endelez; and Englych hit callen Oueral, as I here, the endeles knot».

However, in [Anonymous; 1490a; folio 54 verso], which is a French armorial of imaginary heraldry about the «chevaliers de la Table ronde», Sir Gawain, identified in this text as «Messire Gauvain», is depicted with a «shield argent, a double-headed eagle or, beaked, membered and armed azure», unlike the English tradition, which as we have seen, represents him with the pentacle described in the poem «Sir Gawain and the Green Knight».

Argent, four leaves of silver-leaved whitebeam (Sorbus Aria Lutescens) in saltire, stems interlaced Vert, on a chief Gules, three crosses of Saint Brigid Argent. Motto: «Family is Everything» Sable, with initial letters Gules, over a scroll Argent.

Design rationale

Kathleen Kane's three recent matrilineal ancestors were all named after the Irish Saint Brigid of the 5^th and 6^th centuries. With the time, this saint added to her own story some of the characteristics of her namesake, the earlier Celtic goddess of water, poetry, and the alchemical force of fire. She is one of the patron saints of Ireland and her Feast Day is February 1^st.

These three women were formidable characters: resilient, resourceful, and independent. Each inspired their daughters to follow in their footsteps, reflecting the attributes associated with Saint Brigid, an icon of strength, piety, resourcefulness, and independence. They are symbolized by the three crosses of Saint Brigid.

Saint Brigid's Crosses, woven from straw or rushes and blessed, are traditionally hung in the rafters or beams of the house to ensure the saint's protection throughout the year for all household members. This symbolism connects the matrilineal ancestors with the home and the protection of the family, which, according to the motto, is everything.

The four leaves of the Silver Leaved Whitebeam represent Kathleen's four children. The interlaced stems symbolize the union of the family and their home in Dún Laoghaire, outside of which this tree grows.

Azure semé of mullets of seven points voided, interlaced, and conjoined Argent; a bordure Argent.

Escudo de azur sembrado de estrellas de siete puntas, huecas y entrelazadas de plata, unidas por las puntas; una filiera de plata.

Arms depicted by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with an oval external shape and with a watercolor finishing.

Design rationale

This coat of arms is inspired by the concept of the «lattice formed by the stars» described in the Books of Chilam Balam, pre-Columbian texts of the Yucatec Maya tradition that combine history, cosmology, religion, and astronomy. In this symbolic framework, the ordered network of mullets represents a sacred and intelligible universe, a cosmic structure through which the divine contemplates the world with wisdom. The semé and interlaced arrangement of the mullets visually translates this idea of a stellar lattice into heraldic form.
