Pegasus was the son of Medusa and Poseidon, born when Perseus beheaded Medusa. Medusa was reputed to be very beautiful but angered Athena by having an affair with Poseidon. Athena then turned Medusa into a Gorgon with snake hair.
Pegasus was known as a gentle, helpful creature. Upon his death, Zeus granted Pegasus immortality by turning him into a constellation. Because of his ability to fly, Pegasus is often associated with divine inspiration or the immortality of the soul, an emblem of both our physical body and our higher self.
In modern times, Pegasus has been regarded as a symbol of artistic inspiration.
Bacchus is an ancient Roman deity associated with fertility, wine, celebration, and freedom. While associated with pleasure and freedom, Bacchus also symbolized wine's dual nature—its ability to bring joy and madness. His myths often explore themes of transformation, liberation, and the tension between order and chaos.
