The heart symbol or heart shape (â¥) is an ideograph used to express the idea of the heart in its metaphorical or symbolic sense as the center of emotion, including affection and love, especially (but not exclusively) romantic love.
Medieval thinkers believed the heart to be the seat of emotion and passion. This symbolism permeates modern language in phrases such as matters of the heart or to have a good heart.. By combining these two potent symbols, the phrase heart of gold suggests a person with a kind, generous and noble personality.
