Hi Charme, I did a little hunting and I have discovered that the 
almond Shape has actually a *lot* of pagan/celt (ie witches and 
wizards) significance.

The almond shape is formed by the overlapping of two circles and is 
a hugely universal symbol in mysticism. 

It has been more recently adopted as a christian symbol of christ, 
but it also relates to cabbalistic mysticism as well as pagan (and 
others according to these resources I investigated).

It is called, apparently according to the resource that I have, the 
Mandorla, a latin word for Almond and one thing it signifies is a 
Halo.

Are Lily's Eyes something like Angels? Whatever they are the Almond 
shape definitely denotes that they are in some way sacred or holy.

I'll just leave you with that and see what your *obsessed loon* can 
come up with ;D LOL
