⚜️About the Lion The symbolic meaning of lions, as one might imagine, deals primarily with power. The fact that it is a nocturnal creature means that the lion is a symbol of power and authority in subconscious thought (just as night is an ancient symbol of the subconscious – or dreams). Interestingly, the lion is considered by many ancient cultures as a symbol of the solar animal, however it is primarily a nocturnal creature, carrying out its hunting activity mainly at night. In addition, the lioness is considered a lunar animal. This serves as a symbolic message of balance and sound judgment. In that the lion divides the world of night and day, the lion carries a message of prudence to us. In other words, the lion asks us not to go to extremes in certain areas of our lives. Instead, to have a balanced mind and an overall balance in our life activities. In Egypt, the lion represented the fierce heat of the sun and was seen as Sekhmet who is the Egyptian goddess known as the eye of Ra. It is the power that protects the good and annihilates the evil. In ancient Greece, lions were identified with Dionysus, Phoebus, Cybele and Artemis because myth shows that lions pulled the chariots for these gods and goddesses. Here, the symbolic meaning of lions revolved around protection and they were considered guardians of the dead as well as guardians of palaces, doors, sanctuaries and thrones. They were also the ultimate protectors of the hearth and home. In Hinduism, the lion is an avatar (incarnation or personification) of Vishnu. In Buddhism, the Buddha sits on a lion as a throne of consistency, strength, and wisdom. In alchemy, the symbolic significance of lions is associated with the highly idealistic and valuable properties of gold.
