So I know the left symbol is the celtic cross, but what is the right symbol?
I regularly see it in pagan-related content, yet I can never find a meaning to it.
Is it simply a stylized celtic cross?
Something else entirely?

All of these are correct.
It's multivalent depending on context.
While you see it in pagan and "Gnostic" contexts. These days, since the Golden Dawn and Crowley, it's most used in practice as >>1390398

Relatively few modern revivals of Gnosticism actually use the symbol, and have either resorted to synchretism or reviving the symbol sets of specific traditions inside "Gnosticism" writ large.

Celtic Cross is an amalgamation of Cross symbolizing christianity and of the circle symbolizing the sun and the solar warrior religion of the celts.

The pagan symbol is merely a solar wheel.

None of the popular atheists know Scripture well enouh to settle debates; neither do I follow the popular nor do your deluded retarded memes apply to me. My post was antitheist. I somewhat doubt your kind can learn new proper words.

the solar wheel predate gnosticism by centuries, don't be memed. it's primarily a dynamic swastika representing equinoxes/solstices/seasons common to agricultural "pagan" (pre-abrahamic) religion the world over. in the celtic cross, this natural timekeeping aspect of the equinox/harvest cycles is infused with christian symbolism which you're doubtlessly familiar. the eastern use of solar wheels evolved to the modern swastika and dharmachakra.

it's also designated as the sign of the earth/ "malkuth" in philosemitic esoterics, of which alchemy and gnosticism derive, but certainly secondary to the original archaeological evidence of its uses as a solar calendar.
