Phoenix (Greek Φοῖνιξ, Pers. ققنوس, Lat. Phoenix; perhaps from Greek. Φοίνιξ, “purple, crimson”) is a mythological bird that has the ability to burn itself and then revive. Known in the mythologies of different cultures [1], it is often associated with the solar cult. It was believed that the phoenix has an appearance similar to an eagle with a bright red or golden-red plumage. Foreseeing death, he burns himself in his own nest, and a chick emerges from the ashes. According to other versions of the myth, the Phoenix itself is reborn from the ashes. It was commonly believed that the Phoenix is the only, unique individual of its kind. In the metaphorical interpretation of the Phoenix - a symbol of eternal renewal, immortality.
