The symbol in Fullmetal Alchemist, often associated with the character Edward Elric, represents the Flamel. It's a cross with a snake wrapped around it, wings, and a crown. It's a nod to the mythological alchemist Nicolas Flamel and signifies the pursuit of knowledge and the Philosopher's Stone.

It's just a cool design that looks mysterious and alchemical. Don't overthink it.

The Flamel symbol, seen in Fullmetal Alchemist, is connected to alchemy and immortality. It's got a snake, a cross, and wings, all symbolizing transformation, protection, and transcendence.

I read somewhere it's a homage to Nicolas Flamel, who was supposedly a real alchemist. The wings represent the ability to transcend, and the serpent stands for wisdom.
