How did I never notice this...

In Star Wars Rebels we learn about Fulcrum, a character who at one point is Ahsoka, but we later learn is simply a codeword used for Rebel informants. I, somehow, never really put together the actual meaning...

despite vader and palpatine established the empire, anakin had such impact on the republic and the clone wars that in the end it helped the rebels slowly beating the empire

[neofulcrum]

It was cool that the symbol was based on Ashoka’s markings

[TurusDJava]

Fulcrum being Anakin's code name is fitting seeing as he was meant to bring balance to the force and he is the fulcrum of the Force itself he even acts as a fulcrum in the ep overlords and other eps with the force beings the father even refers to him as the fulcrum

[jackleith]

This might be really obvious to anyone who isn’t me, but I’m on the cusp on finishing a Clone Wars rewatch, and when I saw Ashoka’s detachment of the 501st with their helmets painted, I realised the fulcrum symbol used in Rebels is the same marking Ashoka has on her forehead that the 501st members painted onto their helmets. Mind blowing if not obvious.

Another thing that i noticed is that the fulcrum insignia resembles ahsokas marking on her face a little bit. Talk about foreshadowing.

[BigSimpConnor]

I loved rebels so much. I wished that my friends would just trust me and watch the show. It makes me so sad that they won’t because they are missing in my opinion some of the best of Star Wars. I understand there is filler filler but the stuff that is good is good.

[theCantinafan]

I knew this, i love prequel era story telling its so well done.

[athena]

It was also the name of one of her lightsabers that Anakin gave her before she left for Mandalore

[TheDarkSidePoet]

I have a forklift license. I know all I need to know about what a fulcrum is.

[admiralmcbutternuts]

The name Fulcrum have been used to describe secret organizations and spy networks many times before. I hear Fulcrum and instinctively think to the show Chuck.

"Click on screen for a Marvel short." *me staring at the hour and 70 min video that was recommended*

[DreadJoker]

The markings also line up with those on Ahsoka's head. Compare the image to the pattern on the repainted 501st helmets from season 7 for reference in case viewing angles are difficult.

[s.w.a]

Saw gerrera also used it right?

During The clone wars.

[jkosh]

Ashoka had two lightsabers in Clone Wars. Her off hand saber, Lost Grey. And her main hand saber, Fulcrum.

[kadindarklord]

The only problem, is that Yularen knows the term and that Ahsoka used it.

[shmooglydoop]

So the fulcrum is the tipping point. Aka the agent at the time (Andor, Ahsoka and Kallus) and the scale can only be tipped with enough pressure/force. The force guides the scales. So Fulcrum must allow The Force to guide them. Clever name Skyguy.

[galaxyknightred]

I noticed something about Fulcrum when I was re watching the last series of the clone wars, when Ashoka and rex meet in the hanger of the venator before going after Darth Maul rex and a number of clones had painted their helmets in honor of Ashoka. If you look at rex's helmet you can see a some what out of per potion version of the Fulcrum logo that Ashoka and other agents of the rebellion use later. which I think might be where Ashoka got the idea for the Fulcrum mark is from Rex and the clone troops who painted their helmets.

[vikingskol]

The Fulcrum symbol also somewhat looks like the symbol on Ahsoka’s forehead

[rockyedelman]

I’m gonna save my rebels rewatch for right before the Ahsoka series

[decades]

Also the Fulcrum logo is the pattern on Ahsoka's forehead
