Symbols and Signs. The Universal Language of Humanity

The symbolic language is universal. We encounter symbols engraved on the stones of ancient temples, in the rituals of Initiations, in all Sacred Scriptures, captured in the mysterious forms of the sphinxes of Assyria and Egypt, hidden in the staggering... proportions of the pyramids, in the enigmatic emblems of ancient alchemical books, and we see them in visual art and literary works. And everywhere they are identical, although they bear the imprints of the culture and traditions of different peoples. In earlier times, symbolism was secret knowledge, carefully guarded by a narrow circle of the Initiated. Now access to symbols is open to all, and the number of those wishing to study and work with them is constantly growing. The encyclopedia contains over 700 illustrations, as well as legends and traditions that help to grasp the very essence of symbolism.
