Symbols pt1

Symbols are powerful, very powerful! They represent a idea or concept. Symbols are a language within itself. People are so naive to symbols that organization {secret societies and governments} can use these symbols openly to express ideas to one another.

We will start off slow, so this topic will be in three (3) different parts. Now to expose the naive to symbolism.

Symbol: a thing that represents or stands for something else, especially an abstract!

Abstract- (adjective): existing in thought or as an idea but not having a physical or concrete existence.

We have identified what we are working with and looking for. Now we will take  everyday symbols that are over looked or simply not understood?

The stop sign is universal for STOP! No matter where you go in the world they are red and octagon in shape. Sometimes with words, sometimes without, no matter it means to stop while driving all over the world!

Next symbol is also a common site but overlooked, because people just do not know what it means? "When walking through most parks in America, you will see a soldier on horseback. Sometimes the horse might be on all fours (4), or one (1) legs is raised up, or two (2) legs maybe raised up". All of them have a particular meaning!

1. When all four (4) horse legs are on the ground, it means the soldier was unharmed in battle.
2. When one (1) horse leg is off the ground, it means the solider was wounded in battle.
3. When two (2) horse legs are off the ground, it means the soldier was killed in battle!

Symbols in advertisement, this a biggie! Did you know companies pay millions to have logos designed for them! Logo designers have been doing a good job for companies because companies like Walmart, McDonald's and Amazon have been making billions from their famous logos! How do they do it? Mostly it is metaphysics! Yes, metaphysics, in metaphysics everything has a hidden, double or tri-fold {triple} meaning!

*Example- the color yellow, the color yellow has a triple meaning, depending on how you use it:
1. yellow can mean a coward or scarey. A yellow belly coward or they have a yellow line or stripe down their backside, meaning they are a coward!

2. yellow can mean cool/ laid back or happy! The soft {soda} drink is called mellow- yellow! Which goes with mellow fellow {a calm man} drinking a mellow- yellow soda!  Walmart and McDonald's use yellow for its hidden meaning.....
3. yellow is also a color of attraction like red! So people are naturally attracted to yellow or drawn-in by it. This is why the arches of McDonald's are yellow {golden}, with a red back ground, red another color of attraction. Walmart uses the yellow smiley face in their logo!

* Maybe this why blondes have more fun? lol. attraction to yellow? maybe? maybe not? 

The next advertisement logo is a really cleaver one using a triple meaning but you never noticed it? They are also a industry leader in sales making billions!
Amazon (online store), when looking at the logo there is a crooked arrow underneath the word amazon. The arrow starts on the letter A and stops on the letter Z. This means they sale everything from A to Z! The arrow also crooked to represent a smile, which means symbolically "customer satisfaction". The arrow it self represents it self as, fast and or expedite service to the customer, receiving merchandise quickly!

Learning can be fun sometimes! Please share with young children they like this topic! "shopping, eating and going to the park"! lol

peace, love and unity!
