Solving the Large Cave Shrine Puzzle in Resident Evil 4 Remake

The Large Cave Shrine in Resident Evil 4 Remake houses the Apostate’s Head, which is one of the key items you need to place on the shrine in order to get the church insignia. However, actually obtaining it requires you to solve a strange dial puzzle.

If you’re having trouble with this one, the solution is as follows: select the double symbol with the hanging hourglass on the right and the one that looks like an egg upright on the ground, select the symbol that looks like two halves of a disc that’s been broken, then select the symbol that looks like a deflated jellyfish.

In the screenshot down below, counting clockwise from the top symbol, pick the second, fifth, and eighth symbols.
