Bird, Hand, Spiral and Triangle

The hand is the most frequently symbolized part of the human body. It gives blessing, it is expressive. According to Aristotle, the hand is the "tool of tools." In general it is strength, power and protection. However, it can just as easily mean generosity, hospitality and stability; "lend a hand".

“The spiral is the rhythm of life. It characterizes the creative vital force of human and society, a symbol of unity of generations, spiritual and moral growth of man. It means the life order, the symbol of continuity, development, motion, and journey into the unknown.

The triangle of meaning is a model of communication that indicates the relationship among a thought, symbol, and referent, and highlights the indirect relationship between the symbol and the referent.

The meanings of birds and their symbolism varies greatly from representing immortality, departed souls, and spirit messengers to representing fertility, protection, and strength
