"The Ouroboros, is an ancient symbol depicting a serpent or dragon
swallowing its own tail and forming a circle. It has been used to
represent many things over the ages, but it most generally symbolizes
ideas of cyclicality, unity, or infinity. The ouroboros has been
important in religious and mythological symbolism, but has also been
frequently used in alchemical illustrations. More recently, it has
been interpreted by psychoanalysts, such as Carl Jung, as having an
archetypical significance to the human psyche."

Also, an excellent symbol for meaninglessness.
In which case it well symbolizes the human condition.
Another good symbol for the human condition
is used axle grease. Squeezed out of the bearing
and just going round and round. Maybe the bearing
has meaning, but not the used axle grease.

" The mathematical symbol for infinity is known as the lemniscate. It was
devised in 1655 by mathemetician John Wallis, and named lemniscus,
ribbon, by Bernoulli about forty years later. The symbol is patterned
after the device known as a mobius (named after a nineteenth century
mathemetician) strip. A mobius strip is a strip of paper which is twisted
and attached at the ends, forming a two dimensional surface.

The religious aspect of the infinity symbol predates its mathematical
origins. It has been found in Tibetan rock carvings; the ouroboros, or
infinity snake, is often depicted in this shape. In the tarot, the
lemniscate represents the balance of forces and is often associated with
the magician card.
