Symbology refers to the study or use of symbols, especially in a particular culture or context. It involves understanding and interpreting the meanings behind different symbols, their origins, and how they are used in various aspects of life such as art, literature, religion, and language. Symbologists may analyze symbols in texts, images, or other forms of expression to uncover deeper meaning and hidden messages. The field of symbology is often associated with the study of symbolic meanings in dreams, myths, and rituals.
