Mystic Symbolism – Part 1 — Steven Armstrong, F.R.C.

Symbolism can be defined as the investing of outward things or actions with an inner meaning, most often for the expression of religious or mystical ideas.

We hear from Steven Armstrong, Ph.D., Research Librarian at Rosicrucian Park on this fascinating subject (part one of two).
