Kairos is often represented by symbols that convey its connection to time and duality. The hourglass is a common symbol, representing the finite nature of existence and the constant passage of moments. The sundial, another significant symbol, reflects the reliance on natural cycles and the importance of light and shadow in measuring time.

In art and iconography, Kairos is depicted as a figure standing at the threshold between light and darkness, often surrounded by celestial motifs like stars, moons, and suns. This imagery underscores Kairos’s role as a mediator between opposites, a guardian of balance, and a witness to the unfolding of the cosmos.
