About

This symbolism dictionary endeavors to provide some possible cultural significances of various symbols, and suggest ways in which those symbols may have been used in context. Most symbols are not code signals, like traffic lights, where red means stop and green means go, but part of a complex language in which green can mean jealousy or fertility or even both, depending on context. It is up to each of us to explore works of art sensitively, and decide for ourselves how the symbols in each work function. This website is offered as an aid in that enriching activity.

I like your works. Although simple and small-sized, they are original and very informative.
Such materials equal a welcome and much-needed rain upon an unused, barren mind.
I personally believe that these collections of legends and ancient philosophies can provide much more knowledge of the English language than do our mainstream, old-school vocabulary dictionaries.

It seems that most headwords have no proper indent at the beginning of the first paragraph.
Could anyone help fix this petty defect? I'm using GoldenDict on computer.
By the way, the dictionary icon provided was a moving picture of GIF mode. It didn't work on my device. You might as well use this frame of the English alphabet as its icon, which I cut and pasted from their website.

网上有一系列xxx Mythology A to Z词典，要有人做成mdx也挺不错的，但格式是pdf的可能不好做
