Cloud The sky, air, evanescence, rain or a celestial condition, e.g. when an angel or person is depicted standing on a cloud or a divine hand appears from a cloud. Living "under a cloud" is disgrace. Fertility; the blessing of rain; visible breath; the life force. Clouds which release the reviving rain are also compassion since they cover and protect all living things. The unseen God, veiling the sky; clouds also veil God. From: An Illustrated Encyclopaedia of Traditional Symbols (J.C. Cooper) |
