According to Steven Olderr's, Symbolism - a Comprehensive Dictionary, a gnome symbolises: a flash of knowledge; inspiration; enlightenment; intuition; knowledge held in secret; associated with mining. A gnome represents a force that helps us when we look within and need help when we are doing good and on the right path. Fairy Tales with mythical beings resonate with these concepts inside all of us and they affirm the part of life that is about being true to our selves and living a life of good in the fight against evil.
