Interpretation of the Halloween Card Symbol As a Clue to the Pivot Patterns in the Z340
I believe that the symbol on the Halloween Card is a clue to the pivot patterns found on the Z340. The pivot patterns are also a clue as to his name.
Here is a shot of the Halloween Card symbol
I believe that this symbol is referencing the two pivot patterns in the Z340. To start, I believe that the Halloween Card is one big clue as to “things” in the Z340.
For example, in the card you can see that words by rope , by knife…etc….that part of the cipher you can see written across “slaves”. The middle section starts and ends with an “S”, same as in the Z340 we can the middle section has two dashes.
Those dashes above represent in plaintext an “S” just like in the Halloween Card section where you see slaves.
Moving on to the next section of the card we see the following:
A few observations:
1.) 13 “eyes” and notice this is the same number of characters in the Z13.
2.) That symbol again with the four dots is present after another part of the card mentioned that he will clue us in to his name.
3.) That symbol appears where name and address would go on the envelope.
I believe that the symbol is a reference to the pivot patterns below:
Note: If you have not seen these I recommend you watch “Lets Crack Zodiac” Episode 9
However, these pivot patterns include more than that above I believe they consist of more characters and therefore can explain the mysterious symbol on the envelope.
Below is one snapshot of what I think is more needed to complete the patterns:
Here is a bit more on those patterns, below you see that there are two dots above each pivot pattern, then a half filled dot, also notice that there is a circle and cross which then make the “Zodiac Symbol” but which are represented by the letters AH, the symbols for “LIFEIS” is highlighted in blue below. This symbol is pointing to the pivot patterns as to his name which these are all clues as to his name.
Below is the plaintext with an added “R” highlighted as I believe this “Name” is in reference to JAMESJR
So putting it all together, the first part of the symbol is referencing the first pivot pattern, there are four dots that reference the circles in the Z340, then the LIFEIS and the R which seem to make the last “F” from that symbol.
As an added note on another clue notice how there is a “Z” at the bottom of the symbol.
There is a “Z” at the bottom of the Z340.
