Power of Symbol

Symbols possess a unique power to evoke emotions and influence energy. When we encounter symbols such as the heart or the infinity sign, they can act as visual stimuli that trigger a cascade of physiological and emotional responses. They can lift spirits, comfort us in moments of loneliness, and remind us of the interconnected web of relationships that sustain and enrich our lives. Thus, the energy and feelings of love are not only preserved but also amplified by the enduring power of symbols.
