The symbolism of the mirror
The mirror is an utterly ambiguous symbol. On the one hand, it represents vanity and sensuality. On the other hand it symbolizes self-awareness, wisdom and truth: it is the origin of the adage still used today „to hold up a mirror to somebody“ or „reflection of the soul“. In ancient cultures, the mirror represented the reflection of a persons soul in which the soul could be caught and confined within. The words for „mirror“ and „life“ were identical in ancient Egypt. Celts were buried with their mirror for the very same reason. In Greek mythology, Dionysos‘ soul is being captured inside a mirror by the titans. The reflection in a mirror is a common comparison in Buddhism as well.
