'Symbolism can be defined as a bringing together of ideas and things, one of which expresses the other. It is a language that mirrors both physical and non-physical realities and that has fundamental links with out deepest psychological processes. This guide provides a general introduction to universal symbolism and to the concept of archetypes and examines a number of key symbols -- such as the Tree, the Dragon, and the Cross -- and their associations.'
