UNDERSTANDING SYMBOLS A symbol is an arbitrary or a conventional sign that represents something else...a concept, an idea, a quantity, anything one wishes. Recognition of symbols can occur both consciously and unconsciously. One of my favorite books on the subject- Dictionary of Symbols by Jack Tresidder- explores how every traditional symbol bears an elemental power that transcends boundaries and holds significance for many cultures. It asks questions such as: How did a symbol such as the cross, which today is so closely associated with Christianity, come to appear in the pre-Columbian art of Central America? State Symbols, Flags, Capitals, Maps, Songs info on all the symbols, for all of the states with geography and history. Symbol Dictionary Yes it really is a graphics dictionary. So, learning the search ropes is a little trickier than for a word dictionary. Some intellectual exercise and you'll find a detailed meaning and history of those strange symbols you saw in a dream last night or in the DaVinci Code. The site contains more than 1,600 articles covering 2,500 Western signs, arranged into 54 groups according to their graphic characteristics. Symbols-Word Dictionary: Mirror image of the site above. Alphabetical index lets you access the symbol to match the meaning. For instance you'll find three symbols (with their history) under the Celtic cross.
