"LOIN
To see a lion in your dream symbolizes great strength, courage, aggression, and power"("Dream Moods").
A lion best represents Joan of Arc becuase she is a powerful woman figure in the 1400's. She showed great aggression and passion while fighting alongside her army, which she led and captured Orleans. She is full of courage becuase she goes through great lengths to fulfill her vision of what the saints and angels were telling her, no matter what those who oppposed
her did to her.
