Symbolism uses things that show flow. It's just not literal. It's not about pouring water or fire, smoke, light, etc. I made a small collection on pInterest with more examples, to show to flow-deniers. https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/flowing-things/

Don't be a denier, even when the flow symbol is an arm, leg, sword, animal, hair, cloth, ribbon, etc.

Energy-flow symbolism reading: Symbolism uses things that show flow. It's just not

Learn to see the literal object but don't guess a story to explain it being used literally, which is what normies do first. Instead, ask first, is it a flow? Is it a portal or a barrier? Is there a center region and at least one side flow symbol that fits into known patterns for pictogram layouts?

One of my favorite collections of symbol pattern layouts is called "Up and Down". Mostly you'll see solid literal objects on the sides, pointing either up or down, and some will be flowing things that you recognize as flow. Just remember, they are all representing energy flow, and usually the kind of energy that we are unaware of, etheric/devine/higher-density energy. https://ca.pinterest.com/stevenbhalls/up-and-down/
