Symbology and symbolism has always played a great role in the esoteric's sphere of life. Discuss everything about symbols here.

Is there some meaning behind a Parakeet on a tombstone?


Reason why I ask is we found a Parakeet near my grandmother's tombstone walking on the top of the stone.  We decided to catch it and bring it home and still have it to this day. We thought it was a symbol of some kind. though I'm not so sure.

Parakeets are an indoor bird.  It must have been confused and lost.  Perhaps it just felt the warmth and kindness of that particular tombstone.  

You can consider anything in life a symbol of something else.  What brings comfort from symbols is their significance to those who need it.
God bless, J
