This made me think about the musician Prince during his symbol years.  
For a while there everyone was trying to figure out what to call him - 
"The Artist Formerly Known As Prince", "Tafka" (the artist formerly 
known as), "His Symbolness", and I think he finally decided on "The 
Artist".  What the heck was he up to?  Giving up trying to ascend as the 
True King of the music scene, and instead trying to switch that mojo 
into a different archetype?  Or was he trying to power up that "Love 
Symbol" of his?  He also had a bit of the Mystic Hermaphrodite going for 
him - and the symbol is definitely a mix of both male and female, with a 
wacky crossbar thing in the middle.
