Aeternum
Silvered Obsidian Medusa Head
-
Tradition(s): Hellenism
Medusa is one of the Gorgons in Greek mythology, three sisters with frightening features, daughters of the sea deities Phorcys and Ceto. But unlike her immortal sisters, Stheno and Euryale, Medusa was mortal.
According to legend, she was once a woman of great beauty before being transformed into a creature with snakes for hair and a petrifying gaze by Athena, as punishment for being raped by Poseidon in a temple dedicated to the goddess. Her story is linked to the hero Perseus, who beheaded her with the help of Athena and Hermes. From her blood were born Pegasus, the winged horse, and Chrysaor, a giant armed with a golden sword.
Medusa is thus a figure of vengeance but also of resistance and protection against injustice.
This Medusa head is entirely crafted from Silver Obsidian, a less common variant of the famous protective stone. It will make a perfect artifact on your altar or in a place where you want to feel protected.
This small sculpture is sold individually and its appearance may vary slightly from one piece to another.
☝️ Note, however, that appearance does not make a stone more or less powerful. It is the result of a natural process followed by a finish that is purely visual.

Medusa belongs to the Gorgons of Greek mythology, alongside Stheno and Euryale. Unlike her sisters, she remains mortal.

She is then confronted by :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}, who beheads her with the help of Athena and Hermes.

Under the aegis of Mount Olympus.
The pantheon of Greek deities is one of the most famous and influential in the history of Western civilization, populated by gods and goddesses who ruled over Mount Olympus and the mortal world. Each Greek deity had their own domain of influence and distinctive attributes, and they were often depicted with human characteristics but also with divine powers. The Greek pantheon was also marked by complex mythological stories that described the interactions, quarrels, and loves of the gods and goddesses, as well as their relationships with mortals.
