In China, the lion has been associated with the idea of power.
Images of lionesses as guardians are common in Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, and India.
In medieval bestiaries, the lion is said to have the ability to sleep with its eyes open, and for this reason, it is also considered the embodiment of a vigilant guardian for your home.
In heraldry, the lion represents strength, virtue, and prudence.
According to Jerome’s interpretation, the lion symbolizes the evangelist Mark, who proclaims the royal dignity of Christ. It is also the emblem of the Son of God and is associated with a propensity for contemplation, asceticism, and solitude. Isaiah’s prophecy provides the biblical symbolism of the lion resting peacefully alongside the sheep. In many esoteric traditions, the lion is a symbol of the sun. In Christian legend, we find Daniel in the lions’ den. For Jung, the lion in nature is a symbol of hidden passions.
