Balninkai (Moletai District) - on a red field a silver
8-pointed star. Flag proportions 10:11, free edges bordered with
silver rope, finial is a golden knob and silver bands.
The meaning of arms granted in 1792 is not known. There is
no reason for relating it with Auseklis star, the ancient sacred
symbol of Balts. The common European symbolism of revival and
knowledge is relatively more probable, though this would be bare
speculation too.
