![Heinrich Zimmer
• Symbols are a means of
complex communication that
often times can have multiple
levels of meaning.[5] This
separates symbols from signs,
as signs have only one meaning.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/dreamsandvisionsseminar-module2-130517134455-phpapp02/85/Dreams-and-visions-seminar-module-2-32-320.jpg)
