Medusa is a figure from Greek mythology, best known as a Gorgon—a creature with snakes for hair and a gaze that could turn people to stone. Here's a quick breakdown:
🐍 Who is Medusa?
One of the three Gorgons, but the only mortal one.
Originally depicted as a beautiful woman.
Later cursed to become a monster.
⚔️ Why was she cursed?
In one version of the myth, Medusa was a priestess of Athena.
She was violated by Poseidon in Athena’s temple.
As punishment (possibly for breaking her vow of chastity), Athena transformed her into a Gorgon.
👁️ Her Powers:
Anyone who looked directly into her eyes would be turned to stone.
Her hair became living snakes.
🛡️ Her Death:
Perseus, a Greek hero, beheaded her using a mirrored shield to avoid eye contact.
From her blood sprang Pegasus, the winged horse, and Chrysaor, a warrior.
🧠 Symbolism:
Medusa has come to represent:
Feminine rage
Victimhood and injustice
Dangerous beauty
And in modern times, empowerment
