Description
Photo taken on an island, Isola Madre, Italy. I had never seen a white peacock, so I felt blessed and amazed. Christian artworks have used white peacocks to represent Jesus Christ. It is considered a symbol for death, resurrection, eternal life, and spiritual awakening, which are concepts that are directly affiliated with Christ and in the Bible in ancient times. The bird is also affiliated with such Christ-like attributes as royalty, glory and incorruptibility. Its white color represents his holy spirit. Not only does the white peacock represent Jesus Christ, its color stands for awakening, spirituality and light, along with the purity of a person's intentions and his faith in God. It is also the national bird of India. It is a spirit animal or totem animal for many people, symbolizing good luck, positive self-esteem, and taking the right path. Some people believe that to see a white peacock will bring eternal happiness. The birds are regarded as protectors since they guard the order's temple on Venus and cry out to warn when someone is approaching.
