Medusa is a Libyan serpent goddess.
Medusa is the protector of feminine secrets, and she is known across North Africa and Crete.
She was brought to Greece as one of the Gorgons and
transformed into a demon.
She was originally a symbol of life and death, a force that
destroys in order to create.
Medusa is the goddess of balance in nature, guarding the
entrances to the earth, heaven, and the underworld.
The snake is her totem animal, since it signifies the
never-ending cycle of death and rebirth.
Snakes are intertwined in Medusa's hair and coiled around
her torso, whispering secrets into her ears.
