Fun Stuff: Elephant Symbolism

Symbol of Wisdom, Luck, Loyalty, Strength, honor, Stability and Patience, among other attributes.

For years the elephant has been known as a sacred animal in the East. As the largest animal to walk the Earth, the elephant is known as a symbol of strength and power. It also represents perseverance, in that it is an extremely hard working animal.

Some worship the elephant so much as to make it their national symbol, such as Thailand. To the Hindu way of thought, the elephant is found in the form of Ganesha who is the god of luck, fortune, protection and is a blessing upon all new projects. Ganesha in all his magnificently vibrant elephant glory, is intent on bulldozing obstacles on your behalf.

Elephants are also seen as symbols of wisdom and dignity, because of their incredible intelligence and very long life span.

In the Eastern part of the Earth, the elephant used to carry royal figures and, therefore, became associated with royal status.
