Sogolon as a symbol of authority
Sogolon is a 177-year-old Moon Witch, which makes her authoritative and powerful. For instance, Sogolon has the courage of daring Aesi and the Spider King, reminding them that there is no single man who can dare her. Sogolon reminds her enemies that she has lived long enough and witnessed powerful men fall. Therefore, the Spider King is warned that he should not dare challenge the Moon Witch.
The symbolism of sex predation
Sex predation is symbolized by Sogolon's boss, who attempts to rape her when she was a young girl. Sogolon's master makes sexual advances towards her, but she realizes that she has magical powers which make her powerful and violent. The rape incident enabled Sogolon to discover that she is a witch and nobody can dare her. Consequently, Sogolon fights off her master and defeats him terribly.
The wind
The author figuratively uses the wind to symbolize supremacy and magical powers. According to Sogolon, the wind is summoned to carry her spirits and ensure her safety in difficult situations. Therefore, the wind is personified as a supreme being who protects Sogolon from her enemies. Whenever Sogolon is in danger, the wind carries her to safety and gives her power to fight back her oppressors.
The demonic spirit
Aesi symbolizes the demonic spirit because his primary role is dispatching the imperceptible killers and influencing people's minds for selfish gains. Sogolon is aware that Aesi is stalking her. However, Sogolon is a witch with magical powers, and she can easily tell when Aesi is after her spirit. Aesi is a close friend and confidant of the Spider King, whose actions are evil.
