A symbol is something such as an object, picture, written word, sound, or particular mark that represents something else by association, resemblance, or convention. For example, a red octagon may be a symbol for "STOP". On maps, crossed sabres may indicate a battlefield. Numerals are symbols for numbers (amounts). All language consists of symbols. Personal names are symbols representing individuals.

Overview

Psychology has found that people, and even animals, can respond to symbols as if they were the objects they represent. Ivan Pavlov's dogs salivated when they heard a sound which they associated with food, even if there was no food (which was the beginning of behaviorism) (see also learning).

What symbols represent strength and beauty?
Q. Either one symbol or seperate ones work. I'm really into egyptian symbols like the ankh and eye of horus, but I want the symbol to represent strength and/or beauty. please no chinese/ASIAN art. I'm not trying to be racist, this will be a tattoo idea and i'm not into chinese art and culture. I'm part Mayan indian so any of those symbols would be greatly appreciated. Hieroglyphics will work, too. any and all suggestions are welcome. Thanx in advance.

A. The nefers symbol in egyptian hieroglyphics means "beauty" but it's not going to be a very attractive tattoo... As for mayan symbols, I'm sorry, I know little about their symbols. However, there is a symbol of a heron (bak) in mayan symbolisms and herons are both beautiful and strong. If you're going for a figure tattoo, the tarot card for Strength is a great symbol for both strength and beauty. It's got the image of a lion and a woman. (

What are some symbols of courage in To Kill A Mockingbird?
Q. By symbols, I mean objects, or things other than characters. I already have Mrs. Dubose, and I can not use any more characters. Still looking for one more symbol. They need to relate as much as possible to the book's definition of courage. Thanks ^^ Courage is beginning something even though you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyways, and you see it through no matter what.
