Product Information

Unicorns are mesmerizing creatures. Unicorns remind us of the beauty and magic that still exists in a world where so much can be dark and depressing thoughts. For that reason alone, we all need more unicorns in our lives! What lessons could the unicorn have for you? Not all unicorns are good. In some stories, they are depicted as vicious and dangerous beasts. While it is true that unicorns can represent evil, this does not mean that they are inherently bad creatures. Rather, they symbolize the potential for both good and evil that exists within all of us. The unicorn is a legendary creature that has been described since antiquity as a beast with a single large, pointed, spiraling horn projecting from its forehead.

Aelian (220) [circa]. "Book 16. Chapter 20.". On the Nature of Animals (Περὶ Ζῴων Ἰδιότητος, De natura animalium). trans. A.F.Scholfield. The unicorn, through its intemperance and not knowing how to control itself, for the love it bears to fair maidens forgets its ferocity and wildness; and laying aside all fear it will go up to a seated damsel and go to sleep in her lap, and thus the hunters take it. [28] Aelian (220) [circa]. "Book 3. Chapter 41.". On the Nature of Animals (Περὶ Ζῴων Ἰδιότητος, De natura animalium). trans. A.F.Scholfield.The horn itself and the substance it was made of was called alicorn, and it was believed that the horn holds magical and medicinal properties. The Danish physician Ole Worm determined in 1638 that the alleged alicorns were the tusks of narwhals. [24] Such beliefs were examined wittily and at length in 1646 by Sir Thomas Browne in his Pseudodoxia Epidemica. [25] We are looking forward to the Odd-Paw Vet toys, games and role play items that will be available in the near future as well. You can currently watch the first three Odd-Paw Vet episodes over at the Official Channel. Legends tell of princes hunting unicorns to cut off their horns. The unicorn horn could supposedly act as an antidote to the deadliest poisons.Some also believe that the horn is made of metaphysical crystal and that it can be used to channel magical energy. While no scientific evidence supports these claims, the legend of the unicorn continues to inspire readers worldwide. Unicorn Spirit Animal in Astrology The implicit links between unicorns and these other beasts did not diminish horns’ perceived medical powers. The Danish scholar Ole Worm (1588-1655) debunked the existence of the terrestrial unicorn in a public lecture using the skull of a narwhal, but he still attested to the horn's medical potency. Worm described experiments where poisoned animals had been revived by administration of powdered ‘sea unicorn’ horn. Materials such as walrus ivory, when identified as such, could possess similar qualities to unicorn’s horn. One apothecary, a ‘Mr Alexander Woodson of Bristoll’, ‘a skilful Phisition’, had ‘one of these beasts teeth, which ‘he had made tryall of’ by ‘ministering medicine to his patients, and had found it as soveraigne against poyson as any Unicornes horne’.

This enigmatic creature has an equally complex and convoluted history that spans some 3,000 years. Considered real by the Ancient Greeks, the horse-like quadrupeds were first mentioned in the 4th Century BC by classical historian Ctesias in Indica, a book on India in which he describes the creature as a ‘wild ass’ with a horn sprouting from its temple. The unicorn is also known for being kind and gentle. Unicorns are always ready to help others, and their compassion knows no bounds. If you have a unicorn spirit animal, you likely go out of your way to help others and always try to see the best in people. You’re also probably very forgiving, as you understand that everyone makes mistakes. Healing

Warning

The plate was originally part of a series, made in Italy in the early 16th century, depicting Caesar’s triumphal entry into Rome after the end of the second Punic War. The scene is taken from a set of woodcuts and the letter H marks its place in the narrative. The plates are thought to have been produced by a workshop in Cafaggiolo, not far from Florence. An interesting thing to note is that Scottish unicorns in heraldry are always shown with gold chains wrapped around them. Why? Although we don’t know for sure, it’s believed that this was a way of showing the power of Scottish kings – that only they had the strength to tame the untameable.
