Bird myth from the world Part I


Try to make an exegesis from the myth and folklore towards the Birds in the world for the listing names below with astrological alignment and Torah explanation towards the insight of the folklore

List of the names:

1. Benu de Egyptian

Egyptian myth is predominately associated with the Sun power, as the original adoration and worship towards the sun, In the beginning of the creation in the genesis of the Torah, The first female created as the companionship towards Adam is the Lilith, who departed Adam, against the arrangement of the creator due to her thirst for craving for the power of the light and the source of the tree of the life. Hence, as the first day creation, creator created the light and abyss, divided the day and the night, formed the first principle of the division of the day and the night, hence Lilith is always associated her betrayal on Adam and adoration of the light and falling angels who would sinking into the abyss in the future to create the hell. Hence any creature maintained fantastic adoration of the light and faulty chasing of the light could be manifested as the Lilith quality, obvious to be see, simply for those power from the creation themselves. Hence if in Egyptian is there any issue towards light worshiping and underworld hellish fire for judgement, which might be derived from the Lilith concept of the light adoration. As Lilith differed from Eve, seemly she did not devour darkness when she experienced sex and detoxification, hence it would be quality as evil manifestation as hot with darkness.

Quoted resource: The Benu bird was an Egyptian version of the more well-known phoenix. In Egyptian creation mythology, it was the Benu bird that flew over the surface of chaos, landed, and let out a scream that broke the original primordial silence. It was this cry that was said to decide what would be in this world and what wouldn’t be. Traditionally, the Benu bird closely resembles a heron, but has flame-colored feathers and occasionally a human head. It was closely associated with the Egyptian sun god, so much so that the image of the Benu bird came to refer to the sun god himself, often depicted wearing a crown.

The interpretation would be laid on the egg consciousness for the water consciousness in ancient Egypt, like my previous exegesis in ancient Egyptian myth that, The water in Egypt has not been like the Abrahamic, that is the water divided as the firmament in nature, and divided under Mose’s rod confronting the red sea; in contrast, the myth of the water in Egyptian is that the water stands for death, the water without life, until the benu consciousness rising and struggle out of the water rising into the sky becoming associated with the solar deities. This prominently indicated the curse of the Lilith, that is she only could gathered demons in the darkness on the dirty water (water of death), and Benu stands for another side of the death water consciousness through the Lilith, that is, the extreme struggle for the light as light chaser lilith, here comth as the strange light or solar demons manifested under the rejecting the water of the death through such rising. This strangely associated with the astrological symbolism Aries, the divided day and night, the light and the abyss. Then it basically formed the first sun god consciousness in Egyptian towards the symbol of the bird. In Abrahamic branch that, the bird stands for the creation that blends earth and water, but however, in Egyptian, we might rarely see the element of the earth, but due to water and sky (air) we might considered under Lilith curse, the birds might be half water and half fire creation, and losing its shielding from the earth, but survived due to the struggle to the extreme worship of the light. The water and fire in the sky would cause natural phenomenal such as winds and storms, due to this, we might started to realize the mythical birds under shadowing Lilith consciousness, for strange light worship for survive in the water of death due to lose the shield of the earth. We could find that the long journey of the immigration of the birds flying on the ocean, might be associated with such myth.

The Benu bird was said to renew himself every day, rising with the sun and renewing himself in the sun’s rays. His capability to renew himself meant he was also associated with Osiris, the dead, and the ideas of resurrection. The original Benu bird that created the world was born from flame at the top of a persea tree that stood on the top of an obelisk. Later stories share even more aspects of the phoenix—Herodotus tells the story of the Benu bird living for 500 years before setting itself on fire and being reborn from the ashes. The ashes were then placed on an altar to the sun god.

In zodiac, such ideology would be manifested as the Pisces----cancer----Aquarius.

I might think here it might contain more consciousness towards Aries rather than Libra, since the consciousness is simple towards surviving but without the consciousness of the recognition of division between the heaven and hell.

2. Anzu de Mesopotamia

AnzuIt was said that the Epic of Anzu is principally known in 2 versions. The lion-headed eagle Anzu is often depicted on them. And Anzu in the Sumerian epic of Lugalbanda has a quite different character and role: he is benevolent bird whose offspring are fed during his absence by the hero of the epic. As far as its fragmentary condition allows us to judge, the Old Babylonian version of Anzu was written in an abbreviated form in which repetitious passages are not written verbatim.

Then it was said that the story gives Ninurta the title ‘Bel’, ‘the Lord’, equivalent to west Semitic Ba’al(from the source of the torah, possibly the deity of the Ba’al were occurred in the medians as well as its correlation names in Median or the philistine and Amorites correlation as Ugarit Akkidian name Bal, It has been wondered as the name from the sea people myth as Ba’al in Mycenae Greek, correlated with the name in ancient Hebrew, Beelzeboob). it was said that Nergal and Ninurta are quite close in some of aspects of their characters ,and in Erra and Ishum the defeat of Anzu with a net and the conquest of asakku-demons are attributed to Nergal/ Erra. It was said that the fight of Ninurta to defeat the asakku-demons is known from the mainly Sumerian epic story of cosmic warfare called Luga-e, and a companion story an-gim. In Anzu Sharur plays a significant role as ninurta’s courier in the field of conflict. In Sumerian and Akkadian mythology, Anzû is a divine storm (fire-water elements)-bird and the personification of the southern wind (fire) and the thunder clouds.[2] This demon—half man and half bird—stole the "Tablet of Destinies" from Enlil and hid them on a mountaintop. Anu ordered the other gods to retrieve the tablet, even though they all feared the demon. According to one text, Marduk killed the bird; in another, it died through the arrows of the god Ninurta.[3]Inscribed head of a mace with Imdugud (Anzu) and Enannatum, the British Museum, London.Frieze of Imdugud (Anzu) grasping a pair of deer, from Tell Al-Ubaid.Also in Babylonian myth, Anzû is a deity associated with cosmogeny. Anzû is represented as stripping the father of the gods of umsimi (which is usually translated "crown" but in this case, as it was on the seat of Bel, it refers to the "ideal creative organ").[10][11] Regarding this, Charles Penglase writes that "Ham is the Chaldean Anzû, and both are cursed for the same allegorically described crime," (similarly in the sin of the body but not the issue of the sea here) which parallels the mutilation of Uranus by Cronus and of Osiris by Set.Anzu also appears in the story of "Inanna and the Huluppu Tree,"[4] which is recorded in the preamble to the Sumerian epic poem Gilgamesh, Enkidu, and the Netherworld.[5]Anzu appears in the Sumerian Lugalbanda and the Anzud Bird (also called: The Return of Lugalbanda).Quotation:In Mesopotamian religion, Ninurta (Sumerian: DNIN.URTA, lord of barley) was a god of law, scribes, farming, and hunting(Gemini-Sagittarius balance). In Lagash he was identified with the city god Ningirsu (DNIN.ĜIR2.SU). In the early days of Assyriology, the name was often transliterated Ninib or Ninip and he was sometimes analyzed as a solar deity.

Ninurta often appears holding a bow and arrow, a sickle sword, or a mace; the mace, named Sharur, is capable of speech and can take the form of a winged lion, possibly representing an archetype for the later Shedu.In Nippur, Ninurta was worshiped as part of a triad of deities including his father, Enlil and his mother, Ninlil. In variant mythology, his mother is said to be the harvest goddess Ninhursag (mercury principle with Ninurta). The consort of Ninurta was Ugallu in Nippur and Bau when he was called Ningirsu.In another legend, Ninurta battles a birdlike monster called Imdugud or Anzû; a Babylonian version relates how the monster steals the Tablet of Destinies—believed to contain the details of fate and the future—from Enlil. Ninurta slays each of the monsters later known as the "Slain Heroes" (the Warrior Dragon, the Palm Tree King, Lord Saman-ana, the Bison-beast, the Mermaid, the Seven-headed Snake, the Six-headed Wild Ram), and despoils them of valuable items such as Gypsum, StrongCopper, and the Magilum boat.[1] Eventually, Ninurta kills Anzû and returns the Tablet of Destinies to his father Enlil.There are many parallels with both and the story of Marduk, who slew Tiamat and delivered the Tablets of Destiny from Kingu to his father Enki.A number of scholars have suggested that either the god Ninurta or the Assyrian king Tukulti-Ninurta I may have been the inspiration for the Biblical character Nimrod.[2]In the Sumerian poem Ninurta and the Turtle it is the god Enki, rather than Enlil, who holds the tablet.[3] Both this poem and the Akkadian Anzû poem share concern of the theft of the tablet by the bird Imdugud (Sumerian) or Anzû (Akkadian)Qoutation :The cult of Ninurta can be traced back to the oldest period of Sumerianhistory. He was the central figure in the epic Lugal-e. In the inscriptions found at Lagash he appears under his name Ningirsu, "the lord of Girsu", the religious center of the Lagash state where he was considered the patron deity. Ninurta appears in a double capacity in the epithets bestowed on him, and in the hymns and incantations addressed to him. On the one hand he is a farmer (gad consciousness correlated) and a healing (the opponent from his mother, Virgo-Neptune and projected power correlated with Zebulon) god who releases humans from sickness and the power of demons; on the other he is the god of the South Wind as

the son of Enlil, displacing his mother Ninlil who was earlier held to be the goddess of the South Wind. Enlil's brother, Enki, was portrayed as Ninurta's mentor from whom Ninurta was entrusted several powerful Mes, including the Deluge.He remained popular under the Assyrians: two kings of Assyria bore the name Tukulti-Ninurta. Ashurnasirpal II (883—859 BCE) built him a temple in the then capital city of Kalhu (the Biblical Calah, now Nimrud). In Assyria, Ninurta was worshipped alongside the gods Aššur and Mulissu.In the late neo-Babylonian and early Persian period, syncretism seems to have fused Ninurta's character with that of Nergal. The two gods were often invoked together, and spoken of as if they were one divinity.In the astral-theological systemNinurta was associated with the planet Saturn, or perhaps as offspring or an aspect of Saturn (possibly I thought this figure might be associated with mercury and Jupiter, the Saturn ideology should be with his slay on anzu’s projection). In his capacity as a farmer-god, there are similarities between Ninurta and the Greek Titan Cronus, whom the Romans in turn identified with their Titan Saturn. The myth about the Anzu’s diminishing under the hand of the Saturn’s role since the Myth indicated that Ninurta killed the Anzu (storming power indicated it as Cancer, the blends of the heaven water and fire, Hence anzu might projected as the cancer-Capricorn through lion, but through Gemini- Sagittarius projected separation from Ninuta as its its chains in Lion but free spirit of Capricorn in upper body—balanced water and earth ), the half egle, lion or human body monster. Simply it could be described that one of half human, half eagle-lion face monsterslayed by the power of ideology de the Saturn and Jupiter. Assumptions for the similarity between Anzu and Griffins Then we transfer this ideology and symbolic power into Greco-Roman worldQuote :The griffin, griffon, or gryphon (Greek: γρύφων, grýphōn, or γρύπων, grýpōn, early form γρύψ, grýps; Latin: gryphus) is a legendary creature with the body, tail, and back legs of a lion; the head and wings of an eagle; and an eagle's talons as its front feet. Because the lion was traditionally considered the king of the beasts and the eagle the king of birds, the griffin was thought to be an especially powerful and majestic creature. The griffin was also thought of as king of all creatures. Griffins are known for guarding treasure and priceless possessions.[1] In Greek and Roman texts, griffins and Arimaspians were associated with gold. Indeed, in later accounts, "griffins were said to lay eggs in

burrows on the grounds and these nests contained gold nuggets".[2] Adrienne Mayor, a classical folklorist, proposes that the griffin was an ancient misconception derived from the fossilized remains of the Protoceratops found in gold mines in the Altai mountains of Scythia, in present-day southeastern Kazakhstan, or in Mongolia,[3] though this hypothesis has been strongly contested as it ignores pre-Mycenaean accounts.[4] In antiquity it was a symbol of divine power and a guardian of the divine.[5]The derivation of this word remains uncertain. It could be related to the Greek word γρυπός (grypos), meaning 'curved', or 'hooked'. Also, this could have been an Anatolian loan word, compare Akkadian karūbu (winged creature), and similar to Cherub. A related Hebrew word is כרוב(kerúvכרובreflected ancient ideology of the power that is heading for a completion de house holding (foundation of the world), it could coincidently match Griffins’ role in divine guardianship. Waw actually stands for such guardianship, which is not mean to guard but as the completed consciousness with Saturn. There is evidence of representations of griffins in Ancient Iranian and Ancient Egyptian art dating back to before 3000 BC.[7] In Egypt, a griffin can be seen in a cosmetic palette from Hierakonpolis, known as the "Two Dog Palette",[8][9] which is dated to ca. 3300-3100 BC.[10] In Iran, griffinsappeared on cylinder seals from Susa as early as 3000 BC.[11] Griffin depictions appear in the Levant, Syria, and Anatolia in the Middle Bronze Age,[12][13] dated at about 1950-1550 BC.[14] Early depictions of griffins in Ancient Greek art are found in the 15th century BC frescoes in the Throne Room of the Bronze Age Palace of Knossos, as restored by Sir Arthur Evans. It continued being a favored decorative theme in Archaic and Classical Greek art.Griffin segreant wearing the mural crown of Perugia, 13th centuryA soldier fighting a griffin, 'Alphonso' Psalter, 1284Martin Schongauer: The griffin, 15th centuryMedieval tapestry, Basel, c. 1450In Central Asia, the griffin appears about a thousand years after Bronze Age Crete, in the 5th–4th centuries BC, probably originating from the Achaemenid Persian Empire. The Achaemenids considered the griffin "a protector from evil, witchcraft and secret slander".[15] The modern generalist calls it the lion-griffin, as for example, Robin Lane Fox, in Alexander the Great, 1973:31 and notes p. 506, who remarks a lion-griffin attacking a stag in a pebble mosaic Dartmouth College expedition at Pella, perhaps as an emblem of the kingdom of Macedon or a personal one of Alexander's successor Antipater.The Pisa Griffin is alarge bronze sculpture that has been in Pisa in Italy since the Middle Ages, though it is of Islamic origin. It is the largest bronze medieval Islamic sculpture known, at over three feet tall (42.5 inches, or 1.08 m.), and was probably created in the 11thcentury in Al-Andaluz (Islamic Spain).[16] From about 1100 it was placed on a column on the roof of Pisa Cathedral until

replaced by a replica in 1832; the original is now in the Museo dell' Opera del Duomo (Cathedral Museum), Pisa.Can we assume the dualistic version in Babylon monster Anzu as the uncompleted wow consciousness towards Griffins?Since the separation between saturnine power and rebellions of such bestial rough strength represented as animal desire ‘ר, ’וב’ is the imposed saturnine consciousness and settlement. Since כstands ‘trace of power de Creator and its presence’Then might divide the Anzu represented as the words

כר, (also Kr stands for zodiac Capricorn, the combining of the earth and water, but here due to the rough consciousness presented in Lion, hence the lion symbolized that the body is more chained to earth than the ideal spirit as an eagle head, then its projected grounding as waw ba, might indicate the separation principle of Gemini and Sagittarius on such grounding, the restriction under the division, the division between the higher and lower and the division between the sun and moon, hence Anzu bear moon and sun ideology together, under gemini ideology, it shall divided the darkness and the visible in horizontal manner, with the return the stealing book of the destiny, might stand for the reconciliation in the division between the higher and lower.) when the power of Saturn or Jupiter, it might impose ובunder the completion of the power of projected Saturn, calling for the peace for settlement and hooks of completion of number 7. Therefore, we might find in Greco roman consciousness might contains much social ego and settlement in human consciousness rather than its naturalism in theological level de Mesopotamian ideology. Perhaps one might use it as the --כר—AS THE ROOT OF THE HEBREW PROPERTY.AS TRANSFORMATIONAL HEBREW LETTERSכר-שד (door for hidden treasure )כר-עח(the eyes for the heaven)כר-צס (courage for the truth )כר- ליצ(the physical power)These deduction form the root of the consicosuenss of the Anzu, might be shifted and swifted as the consciousness of the words of Hebrew directly

3. Boobrie de Scotland

Investigation into folklore, especially Celtic oral traditions, began in the 19th-century, and several "bizarre" and less familiar beasts were identified, including the boobrie.[4] It is a generally malevolent entity,[5] with the ability to materialise in the form of various mythical creatures.[6] It commonly preys on animals being transported on ships,[7] preferably calves, but will also happily eat lambs and sheep,[8] carrying its prey away to the deepest water before consuming it.[8] It is also extremely fond of otters, which it consumes in large quantities.[

a detailed account of its dimensions provided by an authoritative source claims that it is "larger than seventeen of the biggest eagles put together".[8] It has a strong black beak about 11 inches (280 mm) wide and 17 inches (430 mm) in length, the final 5 inches (130 mm) of which taper like that of an eagle. The creature's neck is almost 3 feet (0.91 m) long with a girth of a little under 2 feet (0.61 m). Short black powerful legs lead to webbed feet with gigantic claws. An imprint of a boobrie's foot left in some lakeside mud equalled "the span of a large wide-spreading pair of red deer's horns".[8] It bellows noisily with displeasure, sounding more like a bull than a bird.[10] The design of its wings is more conducive to swimming rather than for flight.[8] Its evil powers when in the form of a bird were said by Campbell of Islay to have "terrified a minister out of his propriety".[5] The boobrie's insatiable appetite for livestock posed a threat to local farmers, as they relied on their animals as a means of providing income and food.[12]

Here this celtic oral tradition towards the water birdy that bizarrely represented the horror of the threaten of the water under the wings, which indicated the capacity of the wings are capable for the power beyond the water and fragility of the animals on land for the journey of the ship from the farmer’s hand. The deep water contains strong symbolizing the consciousness of the Scorpio, by not clear about whether the Deeping water could purify the animal from the land due to their void earth issue (virgo sin in either Lilith and Eve). Hence such killing might stands for specific detoxification process for the food to be eaten for this monster.

In assumption, this monster might associated complementarily with Egyptian deity called Nefnut, who represented as moisture, the principle of the water surface, while the Boibhre might stand for the water that in the depth as divided consciousness of the water. Due to ‘t-f-n’ consciousness ‘n’ stands for the wave on the surface of the water, and their derivation as moisture----Pisces, used to be represented as the division of the spirit of the creator and water in Abrahamic sight, but here Pisces ideology could indicated as the divided principle of the ocean (water) and the surface of the ocean (spirit), which represented by the consciousness of the letter ‘N’ (surface), while contrast in the name, the boibhre who handled the issue of the suffocated the prey in the deep water should be treated as the ‘He’ consciousness. This is by means in the dimension the natural mythology, by transferring into the social mythology, ‘he’ stands for the courtyard and house holding, while ‘N’ might stands for light and sin (sex and snakes.) Hence Boibhre might be manifested as a Libra ideology in addition that is for the justice (courtyard) for the heaven and hell (much Eve ---reflected as handle in the darkness). In contrast, the Nefunt might stand for the moisture ideology under the Aries (much Lilith—yielded and reflected from the darkness) principle below the surface of the sea, the sin of the Abyss, the desire of the Abyss, and its sin in light witness for the moisture and water above.

4. Garuda (Karura) de Hindu

In the ancient Hindu resource, the Garuda has been presented in a Justice principle towards the hellish beings, presented as the higher part of the Symbolism Libra (the angels), The tale of the Garuda should be traced back to the time of the Kadru and vinata, and due to the much offspring of the Kadru, which leads to the dualistic manifestation when vinata got 2 eggs. The gardu is from the Egg as well as his brother Arunat, the Solar deity in the India.

Vinata for her impatience since he was born without legs and warned her to not break open the second egg but wait. Aruna then left to become the charioteer of Surya, the sun god.

Vinata waited, and after many years the second egg hatched, and Garuda was born. Garuda later went to war with his step brothers, the Nagas.

Garuda's links to Vishnu – the Hindu god who fights injustice and destroys evil in his various avatars to preserve dharma, has made him an iconic symbol of king's duty and power, an insignia of royalty or dharma. His eagle-like form is shown either alone or with Vishnu, signifying divine approval of the power of the state.[11] He is found on the faces of many early Hindu kingdom coins with this symbolism, either as a single headed bird or a three-headed bird that watches all sides

Hence Garuda and his tween brother (Indian solar deity) might be manifested as Cancer principle under Vinata’s Burren condition, worried by the kadru, Hence the impatience breakthrough of the birth of Arunna might stand for the fire emphasized element from the cancer, then manifested as the solar deity (might be like Egyptian deity, similar towards Lilith consequence towards the Son), in another dimension, it might become the symbolism into another dimension of the fire spirit in the Pluto principle. While in contrast, the water element might be manifested with patience in Garuda, which itself manifested as the consciousness of Capricorn, half earth and half water, sensationally similar with creation knowledge in Torah, since in local culture, it also manifested as Rhythm and sacrifice, which has been manifested into the half watery element, might be associated with Moon and further water element in Neptune consciousness. And half manifestation as earth manifested as ‘Sound’… as the letter ‘GR’ R might indicated 2 derived water element in either rhythm and sacrifice, and ‘G’ manifested as the sound, and its integration expression might be under the interpretation of the its snake beating, the crucifix of the sin as ‘GR’.

5. Orphan birds de egg

The Orphan Bird is from India and described as having the body of a crane, the neck and chest of a peacock, the feet of an eagle, and feathers that are black, red, and white. The mother Orphan Bird lays her eggs in water, and there are two different kinds—good and bad. The good eggs float, and when they hatch, the mother and father raise them, welcoming them into the world and rejoicing in their appearance. The bad eggs sink to the bottom of the water and hatch there. These bad birds are condemned to live in darkness beneath the water. It’s thought that the Orphan Bird is an allegory for the good souls who will rise to heaven and the bad ones who are condemned to a life of darkness in hell.

Here the myth might indicated different dimension in the pre-creation myth. Hence originally the egg stands for the dualism of the water and fire as Cancer, Hence due to correlation towards Egyptian Myth, the floating eggs might stands for the principle of the life towards dark deep water, the adoration of light, strive out of the water as such rising nature, thus the floating eggs might manifested Lilith principle towards the light above the water, mainly the fire element towards solar deities. The egg sank might indicate the other side of the Lilith, as the sin of the Abyss and falling angels, which has been manifested as the first day creation, as symbolism Aries. This is under the condition that the description was upon the creation itself.

However, in another dimensions, it might referred as the consciousness of the integration of the Sea towards its surface and depth, manifested as the myth before, as the consciousness of the integration between Boibhre and Nefnwt. It would not be the issue of the either surface or the depth, but the emphasize of the focus. For instance, in the case of Nefnwt, it is described as the surface of the sea as manifestation, but its focus actually is due to Abyss and light, while in the case of the boibhre, its behaviour looks malicious, actually it might be associated with sort of purification in the darkness of the sea. Hence the myth of the egg might informed some important trace towards the focus and cause, which might be beyond its apparent format by consequence. This is like the unconscious and conscious part of the human beings. Indeed the consciousness in the darkness but instinct upon the apparent seems differed in the case that consciousness upon the apparent (case of the Boibhre) and unconsciousness in the depth of the darkness (cases of the Tefnwt). It might be another derived wisdom from the phase ‘the spirit (creators’ or deities by idolatry) on the water and the darkness upon the void earth’. The means might be chosen due to righteousness of the spirit upon the apparent.

6. Stymphalian Birds And Ornithes Areioi

In the time of Pausanias it was included in Argolis.[19] The only building of the city mentioned by Pausanias, was a temple of Artemis Stymphalia, under the roof of which were figures of the Stymphalian birds; while behind the temple stood statues of white marble, representing young women with the legs and thighs of birds. These birds, so celebrated in mythology, the destruction of which was one of the labours of Heracles, are said by Pausanias to be as large as cranes. but resembling in form the ibis, only that they have stronger beaks, and not crooked like those of the ibis.[20] On some of the coins of Stymphalus, they are represented exactly in accordance with the description of Pausanias.

The Stymphalian Birds are man-eating birds with beaks of bronze, sharp metallic feathers they could launch at their victims, and poisonous dung.

The Stymphalian birds were defeated by the hero Heracles (Hercules) in his sixth labour for Eurystheus.[5][6] Heracles could not go into the marsh to reach the nests of the birds, as the ground would not support his weight. Athena, noticing the hero's plight, gave Heracles a rattle called a krotala, which Hephaestus had made especially for the occasion. Heracles shook the krotala (similar to castanets) on a certain mountain that overhung the lake and thus frightening the birds into the air.[7] Heracles then shot many of them with feathered arrows tipped with poisonous blood from the slain Hydra. The rest flew far away, never to plague Arcadia again. Heracles brought some of the slain birds to Eurystheus as proof of his success.

The Stymphalian birds, or Stympahalides, were flesh-eating birds from Greek mythology. Killing the birds was one of the labors of Heracles, as they had long been terrorizing Arkadia’s Lake Stymphalis. When he reached the lake where the flock of birds lived, he found he couldn’t get to them without sinking into the swamp. Athena gave him a rattle, though, and the sound of the rattle made the birds take flight. He shot some, and those that flew away resettled on an island. There, they were renamed the Ornithes Areioi and were eventually found by Jason as he was looking for the Golden Fleece. More were killed by the Greek sailors.

The birds were originally described as perpetually hungry, carnivorous birds who attacked people and devoured them. They were said to have been raised by Ares and be able to fire feathers from their wings with the strength of arrows. There are different versions of the Stymphalian birds in later myths, including one in which they’re actually temple guardians of Artemis and the only bird-like thing about them are their feet. In another, they’re the human daughters of Stymphalus, killed by Heracles because he believed they hadn’t welcomed him into their home with enough graciousness and honor.

This myth is relatively complicated, since it might stand for more than 2 dimensions of the sin implication from 2 generations, and the Stymphalus Birds simply according to the story has been presented as 2 principles under either masculine or feminine principle as Ares and Artemis. The battle fighting for the birds stands for very interesting myth that, might indicating the land and the sea. The bird here might be indicated as the symbolism Capricorn, as the half earth and half water ideology at first, The manifestation of Aries might extracted the fire the element from the side of the water without patience, which blends ideology of the waring fire on the feather as mythical consideration. However under the much feminine principle it presented as either water or earth. The water might stand for the detoxification and menstruation of the young girls, as the protection as will as woman diseases. On the another condition, the earth stands for deity temple guardian in such cases with imposed consciousness in constructions. Simply if the story is like this, it become much easy in the outline of the definitions, since this stands for pre creation in the world as supernatural consciousness.

However, due to the coming of the Heracles, it comes as the consciousness of the sin, contracted as the consciousness in the Sagittarius itself. A major factor in the well-known tragedies surrounding Heracles is the hatred that the goddess Hera, wife of Zeus, had for him. A full account of Heracles must render it clear why Heracles was so tormented by Hera, when there were many illegitimate offspring sired by Zeus. Heracles was the son of the affair Zeus had with the mortal woman Alcmene, hence this son presented as the sin of the mortal canal and adultery. Then Athena (humanity symbolization), noticing the hero's plight, gave Heracles a rattle called a krotala, which Hephaestus had made especially for the occasion. There comes another ideology from Hephaestus.

In Greek mythology, Hephaestus was either the son of Zeus and Hera or he was Hera's parthenogenous child. He was cast off Mount Olympus, by his mother because of his deformity or, in another account, by Zeus for protecting Hera from his advances. This stands for the rebellion issue laid without fertilization, which might symbolize the Pisces, which contains two sight: The first one stands for the consciousness of the St Maria, The Pisces are the division of the creator spirit and water, while the absence of the fertilization might turn out to be the rebellion from the sea from creature’s perspective, that is, the simple life form in the sea represented itself for parthenogenous principle for the self-beget. Hence as the Hephaestus are famous for the craftsmanship of the weapons, thus his ideology might represent the rebellion of the sea towards Ares-Artemis folklore. Hence When Athena gave the rattle made by Hephaestus, it dramatically represented the humanity bear on the rebellion (weapon) and self refreshment of the water of ocean (consciousness of cancer- Pisces). Since the birds are famous for man eating, it illustrate their nature for humanity destruction with pre creation myth symbolized as Capricorn, manifested with fire with Ares and woman mythical cycles and disease under Artemis. Hence when the sin of the mankind battling with supernatural myth it created the legend of the chthonic monsters overcoming. In Abrahamic side, this could be manifested as giant myth and hybrid of the falling angels with man, since it is sin of Enoish’s and falling angels determined the transgression of the sea, deluge as well as the giant slaying in later generations. Hence it indeed becoming a hero concept for the chthonic monster overcoming ideology under symbolized Libra, as the second day creation, the angels and hellish beings. Then when the Heracles passing for hunting for the birds and at first the earth is not able to bear him and he couldn’t get to them without sinking into the swamp, this is the symbolised Scorpio ideology, that stands for the detoxification and sin for the daughter of the man (his mortal mother and sin of the adultery), this seems like a Eve consciousness. While the principle of the earth and fire remained in the side of the Ares and Artemis (temples and fiery man eating birds). The birds not only eat mankind but also the agriculture and food in the countryside, which might turn out to be burren consciousness under solar deities (fire), and idol shrine (earth) contrast with beget consciousness from mortal woman: Heracles (deep water), with the Hephaestus (rebellion water) handle in the mercy of humanity symbolized by the Athena. Hence when the fighting and bird hunting started, Heracles (Sagittarius) unchained his animal side through defeat the fiery divine birds which stands for the supernatural creature under the power of transfer into ability of chthonic monsters defeating. Such defeating is due to the rebellion water (seduce for battle: rattle) on Sagittarius higher structure. Hence due to such projected Libra ideology on Sagittarius, it opens the mercy of the mankind (Neptune symbolism: with water induced higher battle with lower overcome in chthonic monster with bestial strength). Hence here the birds myth unchained the bestial lower prison among, animals, divine, beast, man and sin level.
