Maybe if socks symbolize love, cabbages symbolize safety or sanctuary
(Hagrid in Knockturn Alley, Figgy's house, an antidote for Nagini...)
 
I think Nagini is just that, a nagini, a female naga. After all, 
Voldemort seems to be turning into a naga, naga are associated with 
immortality and Fawkes is a magical creature, so his counterpart 
should be one, too.
