Caduceus


greek mythology and symbol
The caduceus, the traditional symbol of Hermes in Greek mythology, and in Roman iconography as Mercury,  featuring two snakes around an often winged staff, is often mistakenly used as a symbol of medicine instead of the Rod of Asclepius which is a serpent-entwined rod wielded by the Greek god Asclepius, a deity associated with healing and medicine. This symbol is a classic example of balancing opposite forces and finding alignment. In order to find yourself at the right time in the right place is a matter of bringing in these forces into better alignment to overcome adversity and completing projects. The way to align yourself with the "Planets and Stars in the Sky" is by following your passion, goals, interest, and following your intuition and personal dialog to enjoy the things you do and experience the best of life. You can start to improve all areas of your life by shifting the scale in a positive fulfilling direction.
