[[Image:200px-Imperial eagle.jpg|center|thumb|The Aquila, simbol of the Imperium]]
The '''Aquila''' is a two headed eagle, and represents the entire Imperium of Mankind. During the times before the [[Horus Heresy]], the two headed eagle was blind-folded on one side, and the other had eyes. The backward facing blinded side represented looking back into the past, while the forward facing sighted eagle was looking into the future. After the Heresy, and the [[Imperial Cult]] took hold, the Aquila's means changed to represent the two headed Empire of the Imperium and the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]].<sup>1</sup>
