Different Meanings |
If you were
painting a Valentine's card, you'd want the signs of your love to be
clear and noticeable. But if you were painting a portrait, you could
also add some hidden symbolism about love that someone looking at the
painting may only understand subconsciously.
Red:
The colour
associated with love and passion.
Heart:
From
Christianity comes the belief that the heart is the seat of our
emotions, particularly love.
In Islam, the heart is our spiritual center. A heart symbol is used to
replace the word 'love'.
Lips:
Used for
kissing and therefore associated with passion. A kiss by a pair of lips
painted with bright red lipstick leaves a print showing something was
sealed with love.
Heart pierced by an arrow:
Cupid or Eros shoots an arrow into a heart, causing the person to fall
passionately in love. It explains why love is both pleasurable and
painful.
Broken
heart: A
symbol of the loss of love, most often of a spurned or rejected lover,
and the pain of this. The term 'heartbroken' is used for extreme sadness
and grief.
Cupid:
The Roman
god of love, represented by a winged boy carrying a bow and arrow with
which to piece his victim's heart, causing them to fall in love.
Eros:
The Greek god of love, also represented by a winged boy carrying a bow
and arrow.
Rosemary:
A symbol
for fidelity as well as remembrance.
Mistletoe:
Standing under the mistletoe at Christmas gives anyone the opportunity
to kiss you.
Wedding
rings:
Represent permanency, "until death us do part".
Roses:
Red roses:
symbolise
love and passion.
White roses:
symbolise virginity and purity.
Yellow roses:
symbolise jealousy and infidelity.
Jasmine:
This
strongly scented, white flower is used as a Hindu symbol for love.
Chocolate:
And, of
course, better than any bunch of flowers, is chocolate! A box of
chocolates has romantic connotations, the gift of a lover. Not to
mention supposed aphrodisiac properties of chocolate.
Osram Ne
Nsoroma:
The Adinkra (West Africa) symbol representing love consisting of a star
(the woman) and the moon (the man) |
