Symbolism > whale
whaleAccording to legend, the whale was often mistaken for an island. Ships that anchored to its side were dragged down to destruction by a sudden plunge of the immense creature. In this way, the whale came to be used as a symbol of the Devil, and the whale's open mouth the open gates of hell. Perhaps this is the reason why the whale is an extremly uncommon symbol in heraldry. French heralds are said to draw the teeth red and blazon the symbol fierté.Copyright © 2000 - 2012 Swyrich Corporation, all rights reserved Tools
