PHARMACY, SYMBOLIZED BY THE BOWL OF HYGEIA, THE GODDESS OF HEALTH IN GREEK MYTHOLOGY. “THE BOWL REPRESENTS A MEDICINAL POTION, AND THE SNAKE REPRESENTS HEALING. THE SERPENT THAT IS USUALLY ASSOCIATED WITH THE BOWL OF HYGEIA SIGNIFIES THAT EVEN SOMETHING AS HARMFUL AS THE SNAKE VENOM IN THE RIGHT AMOUNT CAN HAVE A HEALING ABILITY. HEALING THROUGH MEDICINE IS PRECISELY WHY PHARMACY HAS ADOPTED THE BOWL OF HYGEIA SYMBOL.” THE SERPENT HAS BEEN REPLACED BY TWIG THAT REPRESENT MEDICINAL HERBS AND AN INCREDIBLE SYMBOL FOR SO MANY THINGS—STRENGTH, LOOKING TOWARDS THE FUTURE,” A PLANT SYMBOLIZES PERMANENCE, LONGEVITY. ITS FIRM BASE SYMBOLISES THE CONCEPT OF ‘ROOTS’ AND AN ONGOING RELATIONSHIP WITH NATURAL SURROUNDINGS..
