Symbols - What does heaven look like
Vine
An alternative symbol to the caduceus with its serpents or snakes, as long as the vines are shown in a spiral pattern climbing up a pole.
In a more generic sense a vine takes on the symbolism of grapes and wine.
As the caduceus is also interchangeable with the cross in this context, the vine may also be found twining around the cross. Here is an unusual use of the symbol, but one which is symbolically correct!
