Description
Black Crow is a recent addition to my Street Series. Ever watchful and intelligent the crow like all birds symbolize freedom.They can walk upon the earth and swim in the deep blue sea as humans do, but they also have the ability to soar free high up into the sky. The crow was sacred to the god Apollo.Some of Apollo's romantic misfortunes involved animals that became associated with him. One myth explains how the crow's feathers turned from white to black. Apollo asked the crow to watch over the princess Coronis, who was pregnant with his son. Nevertheless the crow failed to prevent Coronis from having an affair with another man. Angry at the crow, Apollo turned its feathers from white to black. He then asked his sister Diana to kill Coronis. When Coronis lay burning on the funeral pyre, Apollo pulled his unborn son Asclepius from her body. The boy later became the god of healing. Apollo was also associated with the wolf, the dolphin, the raven, the serpent, and other animals.
