2. Symbolism A symbol is a shape, mark, character or idea which represents something else. It’s a ‘shorthand’ to bigger concepts and more complex ideas. Symbols allow people to go beyond what is known or seen by creating linkages between otherwise very different concepts and experiences .

3. Common Examples of Symbolism in Everyday Life A red rose, or the color red, stands for love or romance. Black is a symbol that represents evil or death. A ladder may stand as a symbol for a connection between heaven and earth. A broken mirror may symbolize separation. Blue represents peacefulness and calmness.
