Logos of LoveSymbols for love
and romance areeverywhere we look.Hearts, flowers, gemsand other motifsbring to mind theemotional qualities oflove and how we feelabout our loved ones.
The Romansbelieved diamonds,worn to symbolizeeternal love,were splinters offallen stars. Thefirst diamondengagement ring canbe traced to the15th century.
The personificationof love and courtship,Cupid is depictedwith a bow andquiver of arrows.The notion that beinghit by Cupid’s arrowwill make the victimfall in love comesfrom the myth ofCupid and Psyche.
Likely the mostcommon symbol forlove is the heart. Atone time, scholarsbelieved the heartwas the seat of allhuman emotions.
Other symbols oflove include the rose,swan and harp.

Facts
Ash WednesdayIn Christianity, the
first day of Lent—theperiod of fasting andrepentance leadingup to Easter—isknown as AshWednesday. ManyChristians observethis holy day byreceiving a mark ofashes on theirforeheads in theshape of a cross.Traditionally, theashes are made byburning the palmfronds used in theprevious year’s PalmSunday services.Since Biblical times,the sprinkling ofashes over one’sbody has been a signof repentance, andthus Ash Wednesdayreminds Christians oftheir own sin andmortality. Though theholiday seemssomber, it is seen bymany as a way toprepare for thejoyous Easterholiday, when thedeath andresurrection of JesusChrist washes awaythe world’s sins andpromises eternal life.
