The story of Pegasus was handed down to us from ancient civilizations. They believed that Pegasus, and winged horses in general, symbolize our own inborn ability to travel from one level of existence to another. To "rise above" what we thought we could achieve. Pegasus also signifies our own need to "rise" above the ordinary physical state. To become something more than what we see on the surface. It represents our desire to set our goals higher and to seek spiritual answers. The deeper meaning of Pegasus is our own natural ability to overcome adversity. We do this by changing something negative into something positive, and turning our "dis-ease" into harmony. It is about the path, and not the destination.
