FAFO sign

FAFO Sign – Sandtray Miniature 

Bold, blunt, and instantly recognizable, this FAFO sign brings an edgy layer of honesty to the sandtray. In therapy, it can represent boundaries, consequences, personal agency, and the moments when someone reaches a breaking point. It can also surface themes of anger, defiance, frustration, or the desire to reclaim one’s power.

Symbolic Themes:

• Positive: empowerment, assertiveness, boundary-setting, self-protection, reclaiming strength, standing up for oneself.

• Negative: conflict, impulsivity, burnout, emotional intensity, and the fallout of choices made under stress.

Whether used humorously, defensively, or as a symbol of rising courage, this piece invites rich exploration of cause and effect, personal responsibility, and the emotional weight carried in hard moments.

Size: Approx. 3 1/4 inches tall
