Chiron the Centaur - Sagittarius
|
|
As a child I often wondered and somehow hoped that centaurs really did exist. What an amazing creature he must be to have the mind and intellect of a human and the magnificent body of a horse with its grace, speed, and agility. Chiron, the Greek god, was the most famous centaur and the mentor of many great figures from Greek mythology including Hercules. He was also known as Sagittarius and was a gifted scholar, physician, hunter, and healer and is ruled by the king of planets, Jupiter. Born under the sign of Sagittarius I was driven to create this piece perhaps in hopes of better understanding myself. If centaurs do exist they must be off somewhere with unicorns and dragons. |
