hold
much
symbolism.
Various
cultures and religions
have an understanding

rainbow is a perfect
combination of factors
that must exist in
the elements for its
formation. These create

rainbows, represent a
super natural beauty,
promise
and
joy.
Symbolism further points
to a time of healing, hope,
expansion and harmony.

Rainbows signify a time
of enlightenment for us.
They show us the deeper
understanding of the spirit
that lies within each of us.
We are spiritual beings
living in this earthly world. A
rainbow is a representation

innate wisdom, allows us
to lead a bold life that is on

through this portal, one
can transcend human
thought and emotion
and embrace their own
spirit, to act based on the
innate wisdom of their
soul’s desire, to choose
to experience each day
with joy and love.

spirit comes in the form of a
journey, a path. For others,
it comes at one particular
