I was hoping there was some astronomy or astrology symbol for the Milky Way, but no luck so far. Anyone have a clever way I could make such a symbol, perhaps one that resembles a spiral galaxy?
Some people have taken this question to be about printing a simple spiral in LaTeX. But most spiral galaxies do not resemble spirals. The Milky Way, for example, has quite a few arms.
One might argue that it resembles an asterisk whose pixels undergo a rotation about the asterisk center, where the angle of rotation is proportional to the pixel radius. But I'm not sure how one would accomplish that kind of rotation in LaTeX — it's just the best thought I've had so far.
I've also looked through the comprehensive list of LaTeX symbols, and I do not see one which resembles a spiral galaxy.

Vote to reopen: This question is less specific. A galaxy symbol is not necessarily a spiral, even if it is one "that perhaps resembles a spiral galaxy". For instance, a rotatedScould be a legitimate answer here (resemble a barred spiral galaxy) , but not in the linked question.

You are lucky man! Vacation without of internet tyranny! What a luxury :-). Seriously: I doubt that exist a spiral symbol with many arms. A solution seems to be draw it by some program (pstrick, tikz) .
