Cornucopia Of Abundance Cuerno De La Abundancia Scented Gel Candle W/ Figure Inside For Good Luck, Gambling, Job, ETC.

Cornucopia symbolizes abundance, a bountiful harvest, and, by extension, an appreciation for both of those things. The cornucopia, or also called the horn of plenty, comes from Greek mythology, and it was a goat horn that would often fill itself with whatever food or drink the owner requested.

Mythology offers several explanations of the origin of this symbol. One which is best-known involves the birth and nurturance of the infant Zeus that had to be hidden from his devouring father, known as Kronus. In one cave on Mount Ida on the island of Crete, the baby Zeus has been cared for and protected by numerous divine attendants, which included the goat Amaltheia, or Nourishing Goddess, that fed the baby with milk. The future sucking king of the gods had some unusual strengths and abilities. While he was playing with his nursemaid, he, by accident, broke off one of her horns, which then had the divine power to provide unending nourishment, as the foster mother had to the god.

In another myth, the cornucopia has been created when Heracles wrestled with the river god Achelous and also wrenched off one of his horns; sometimes, the river gods were depicted as horned.

The cornucopia became the attribute of a few Greek, as well as Roman deities, especially those that are connected with the harvest, prosperity, or also spiritual abundance, like personifications of Earth, the child Plutus, god of riches, as well as son of the grain goddess Demeter, the goddess of luck who had the power to grant prosperity, and so on.
