Aya - The Fern
A West African Adinkra symbol representing defiance, endurance, and resourcefulness.
The fern is a hardy plant that can grow in difficult places. "An individual who wears this symbol suggests that (s)he has endured many adversities and outlasted much difficulty." (Willis, The Adinkra Dictionary)
