"The band’s amazing fourth album (“Stairway to Heaven”, “Black Dog”, “Going to California”, etc!) – untitled, but usually named simply as Led Zeppelin IV – is sometimes also called ZoSo, after the strange sigil found on the album jacket; one of a group of four symbols, each said to represent a member of the band, with ‘ZoSo’ being Jimmy Page’s. The original symbol can be found in the 1557 alchemical grimoire Ars Magica Arteficii, and is based on the Zodiac – although the greater meaning of the sigil remains obscure."
