Cultures and beliefs that existed previously and which appear now, there is a large number, but because a variety of signs and symbols that can play both positive and negative, abound for every taste and color.

It's Funny that we wear on different characters, sometimes even without knowing it. And it's not about damage or a deliberate act, no. Just all the letters, stripes, the labels that manufacturers put on clothes, not very often subjected to preliminary analysis. And it is possible that if you go to Church somewhere on your pants or shirt will be a satanic symbol.

In General, we can divide the symbols into three categories: - generating good (success, wealth, hope, strength, fortitude, determination, etc.), the embodiment of evil (demons, the devil in different cultures) and combining both sides.

An Open hand (Hamsa)

sign of goodness and happinessThis sign of goodness has long been revered by many religions. Jews, Arabs, Phoenicians, even the ancient Christians were endowed him with strength, protects from evil eye and spoilage. Even in India there is a tradition to paint on the couple's home with open palm as a sign of goodness and happiness for the new family.

The Cat in the Egyptian cult

sign of kindnessFor the ancient Egyptians the cat was the animal sacred good bearing. Bright mention this remained as an image of Bastet (female with cat's head) which was the goddess of the sun, protecting pregnant women and children and symbolizes the beauty, agility, grace and affection. For causing harm any cat in Ancient Egypt was punished by execution, but in General this animal was treated as a family member and even embalmed after death to rest in a separate sarcophagus.

Wolf

sign of good and evil

Continuing the theme associated with the animal world, one can judge the ambiguity of using the wolf as a symbol. In some cultures he is the personification of evil, deceit and cruelty, in others (as a sign of good) symbolized courage and victory, courage and heroism. The Egyptians he was the personification of military prowess. From the same Romans the wolf was the animal-symbol of the God Mars.

The Lotus in ancient myths and legends

the sign of good photo

The Symbol of time, as he also has seeds, flowers and unopened buds (past, present, future). Lotus – it is also the personification of the sun, because at sunrise, passing through the water, it is dissolved, and at sunset again closes the petals and leaves into the water to the muddy bottom where he was born and sprouted. The flower is also a symbol of life, because, once in infertile soil, its seeds can lie 150 years in anticipation of better conditions. Lotus – one good sign of those eight, which are listed in Chinese Buddhism. It is a symbol of the Buddha himself. Prosperity, determination, family harmony, firmness, honesty – here is a brief list of mystical properties associated with beautiful and unusual flower.

Yin-Yang

sign of good and evilWho has not heard about this sign? This is probably the most popular sign of good and evil from the entire Chinese culture. This symbol is the best shows the duality of the Universe and emphasizes that good and evil – the vibrations of the same field. Two parts, white and black – opposites that constantly interact, change each other and exist separately can not. There are always two opposite and inseparable sides.

Ankh

sign of kindnessIt's an Egyptian sign of good, of life, fertility, reincarnation. Don't confuse him with the cross, which is characteristic of Christianity, because the God RA was worshiped very differently. The Scriptures of the ancient Egyptians, RA despised virginity and was the God of fertility, life, because the offerings looked accordingly (Orgy). Yes, mass orgies in the worship of God. Say, debauchery? Debatable.

A Sign of good until recently

sign of good and evilThe Symbol used from the oldest times, even in everyday life (it painted on the plates, vases, houses, weapons), indicating the movement, the sign, symbolizing the sun, life, light, and well-being, has gained a negative aura in the second half of the twentieth century. Right, talking about the swastika. This sign of kindness, a photo of which to provide, in the form in which it was used by German Nazis, not very good, has other forms. This symbol exists in the form of three-, five - and six-pointed stars with smoothly curved ends.

That image as a sign of goodness to submit for review would be superfluous. I hope that this article will help you navigate the world of symbols.
