I have always held that the tree shape Elder Sign is a glyph that represents a branch of horrible coral-like growth from some unspeakable corner of the universe. It is a living coral colony of pustule cell creatures that lurk inside their homes to lash out with poisonous tendrils to capture prey. The star shape Elder Sign is just a representation of the same branch of coral from the top, which just happens to have a vague star shape. It could also represent the maw of one the polyp creatures. It may not be canon, but it makes sense. Look up coral on Wikipedia sometime and imagine a planet covered with such lovelies, but gigantic and sentient. Can’t you just feel the love.
Speculation like this is one of the reason's I love Mythos fandom. Heh.
My own meta-theory is that both Elder Signs are two dimensional representations of the same n-dimensional glyph. They're just looking at it from different frames of reference.
