Stories Told Through Symbols 🌿
The Secret of Symbols: The Dove and the Feast Below
Before you start unraveling the symbols, first embark on the journey of the story itself ➡️ The Dove and the Feast Below 🕊️
🎨 I painted this artwork specifically for this story.
It was only later that I noticed I had accidentally signed it on both sides. 🙂
But in fact, it doesn’t matter at all – each side carries a different energy.
It’s true that the crown appears upside down on one side… but even that holds its own meaning.
So you can simply choose which version speaks to you more. 
My stories speak through symbols
Each of us may hear something different in them – and that’s perfectly fine.
That’s why I always give you time to find your own answer first – to discover your own treasure.
My interpretation comes later – so you don’t mistake the key for the treasure. 😊
Here you can find my view of the symbols – just as they came to me.🌿
The dove is a symbol of higher vibrations – it represents seeing the world from a different, „higher“ perspective.
The glowing orb, symbolizing the light of understanding, first leads us into our own depths – into places we often hide from the world, and sometimes even from ourselves.
Even within the deeper layers of the psyche, there is order, here symbolized by the wise queen, quietly reminding us: it is necessary to bring these things into the light.
If we hide these vibrations within ourselves, they will eventually wither away.
Inside, I can feel the danger. My trust in people is not strong, and in the daylight, I feel vulnerable.
This story is also about the courage to be vulnerable.
What I have learned over time is this:
Finding courage does not mean we are no longer vulnerable.
Vulnerability remains just as real as before – and yes, we may still get hurt.
But this should not be a reason to retreat back into the cave and stay hidden.
Because we are no longer alone – the dove remains with us in the light.
And over time, we may notice that we perceive the world differently.
Some things that once hurt us may no longer reach us as deeply.
The empty plate symbolizes the absence of something.
Here, we can recall the Hermetic principle: „As above, so below; as below, so above.“
What we cannot find within ourselves, we will not find outside – and vice versa.
But where should we look? And what exactly are we looking for?
That is a question for you.
The castle and the queen represent the order of the world – the system.
When we step out of our cave, this is what awaits us.
It can feel sad – our dove might be lost.
But is the order itself bad?
No. The system acts in good faith, in the name of what it believes to be good.
As the saying goes: „The road to hell is paved with good intentions.“
Every nation holds its own truth.
And what we can truly change is ourselves –
to act according to our own inner sense,
to do the best we can,
and not to be afraid to stay vulnerable.
Thank you for visiting and I look forward to seeing you at the next story.
