The pelican primarily symbolizes self-sacrificial love, charity, and the Eucharist in Christian tradition, often depicted as a "pelican in her piety" wounding her own breast to feed her young with blood. This ancient legend represents Christ’s passion, atonement, and the nurturing of the faithful, commonly found in church art, heraldry, and literature.
