Symbolism of the rabbit.

Symbolism of the rabbit. | Rabbit: incredibly fecund, the rabbit is a
symbol not only of fertility, but also sexuality and lust, personified by the "bunny girl." "Bun" is an old English word and refers to the distinctive circular shape of the animal's tail. Although the rabbit didn't make its appearance in the British Isles until the 12th century, its prolific breeding habits meant that it
was soon prevalent everywhere & it had adopted a little of
the same symbolic meaning as the hare, minus the mystery
accorded to the hair as the more elusive nocturnal creature. The rabbit's foot is still seen by some as a
particularly potent good luck charm. While having its foot severed is presumably not very lucky for the rabbit itself, as a totem object the foot is believed to bless its owner with the same fertility & swift footedness as the animal. The efficacy of the piece of rabbit worn as a charm did not escape
the Lakota warriors, who believe that an armband of its
skin would enable them to run its fast as the rabbit itself. | image tagged in easter bunny,cute animals,legends,mythology | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
