Nestled in soft pockets of awareness, there are messages waiting to unfold themselves to us, cosmic messages intended for our eyes only, and in James Bond ‘double-oh-seven’ style, with cryptic innuendo and a bit of humorous cheek, we are left to ponder the symbolic implications of oracles glittering on our path.
This human life is all espionage and safari, and I contend the hunt begins at the front door of our own consciousness. We all seek meaning, we all seek value, we all seek to lift the veil of the mundane that tends to cloak the brilliance awaiting us in this life.
To be sure, there is a remarkable quality of life available to each of us, and in my experience that extraordinary quality reveals itself via the endlessly versatile language of symbolism.
We all know this language, and we owe it to ourselves to interpret deeper symbolism in all its delightfully unusual dialects and cosmic contexts.
Symbolism is a language spoken from the Unified field, and its speech is variable, multi-tongued and infinite in manifestation. Interpreting signs, symbols and all manner of natural oracles is akin to tapping into limitless potential as well as establishing an experience with the Mystical.
Our lives are replete with multi-layered meanings, and that means big juju for all of us.
It means there is magic inherent in every moment of our lives. This magic dispels the ennui that sometimes clings to the human experience. Interpreting personal symbolism rekindles the conviction that we are all light-infused, special and valuable.
Regardless if we may be beset with grief, boredom or rage, we have the power to open just a few cracks of unique contemplation and view the moments of our lives as symbolic messages – these messages offer validation about our connection to something grandiose, something utterly unified in its ability to support and encourage our well-being.
Life is symbolic. Start interpreting.

Avia, you’ve such a way with words. I love how you make simple stuff sparkle with style. I’ve bookmarked all your websites and return time and time again. You’re right, it truly is the small stuff (like stuff we take for granted) that glimmers with huge potential. Thanks for everything!
I love your website and I completely agree that the world as we experience it COULD be SYMBOLIC – indeed it might well be – HOWEVER when we look for a symbol in every little thing, we run the risk of running our lives by default –
Consider a woman who is contemplating suicide by slitting her wrists – she sits down with a deck of regular playing cards and says if I get a sword, I’ll do it. She has – what – 1 in 4 odds of getting that sword? was it a symbol? what if she acts on it?
Do you ever wonder how much we miss every day? I know I mindlessly go through portions of my day without looking for some telltale signs.
Beautiful and inspiring post, as usual, Avia. Sometimes it’s hard for me to see symbolism in things, even if I know something’s tugging my subconscious, but I take joy in animals regardless of their intent when visiting me. 🙂 Thank you for keeping up your site and blog.
