These days, the sun is playing with clouds. A strong
wind high in the atmosphere chases them and beautiful skies appear while the light
flows on the reborn forest.
A phoenix depicted in a book of
legendary creatures by FJ Bertuch (1747–1822)
In Greek mythology, a phoenix
or phenix (Greek: φοῖνιξ phoinix; Latin: phoenix, phœnix, fenix) is a long-lived bird that is cyclically
regenerated or reborn. Associated with the sun, a phoenix obtains new life by
arising from the ashes of its predecessor. According to some sources, the
phoenix dies in a show of flames and combustion, although there are other
sources that claim that the legendary bird dies and simply decomposes before
being born again, like Nature.
