If someone has a "big heart", that means that they are kind, caring and thoughtful. People with "big hearts" will do anything for people they love or to help others. "Big heart" in this context is a metaphor, it does not refer to someone who physically has an enlarged heart. Ex: My mom has a big heart, she cares for everyone in our family. Ex: He has a big heart, he volunteers at the animal shelter.
