SYMBOL DICTIONARY · A PEARL

A Pearl in your coffee grounds

Wisdom from difficulty — a hidden treasure formed slowly, quietly.

A pearl is the treasure that grows around an irritation: wisdom, patience, something valuable made from something that once only chafed. At the rim, a small precious reward is near — often the fruit of a difficulty you handled well.

Deep in the cup, the pearl is hard-won understanding that is entirely yours, formed too slowly for anyone to have handed it to you.
