Symbolism of the Turtle

 Their slow and plodding nature led  to the belief that turtles had the ability to carefully contemplate the weighty issues of  the world around  them.  It was thought that the turtle had the magical ability  to unite heaven and earth and this link between heaven and earth made them a natural for use in divination. And, since turtles seem to possess an enviable resistance to aging, they came to symbolize longevity and immortality.
