Symbols - What does heaven look like
Bow
See also Arrow.
Where both the bow and arrow are together it not only represents spiritual experience, but is also a symbol of the kundalini experience. This symbolism derives form the similarity between the pelvic bone when attached to the spine and the bow with an arrow in it.
The symbolism is further helped by the similarity of the rib cage to the levels and layers.
