The Lernaean Hydra

Lernaean Hydra was a monstrous serpent with nine heads attacking with poisonous venom. One of the head was immortal and cutting off one of the nine heads, another two would immediately grow. Hercules used sacred fire to prevent the growth of replacement heads and he buried the ninth and immortal head deep in the ground.This labour symbolizes the generative force of the individual to overcome the nine (number of the heads) flaws of his or her ego.

The Labours of Hercules

Find your hero!

My own personal hero is Hercules because he stands out among all others with his titanic physical and mental strength. Through his adventures that led to the successful completion of the labours , he taught me valuable life principles as the importance of modesty and purity of body and spirit, the mastering of one's impulsive drives, the persistence in one's goals and the continuous quest for truth. The labours of Hercules inspired me as a child and still continue to do so today in the maze of my daily life. When I walk in my busy city I " see " him standing at the crossroad pointing to me silently which way to go , prompting me to choose the right path , the one of goodness and virtue despite the difficulties ahead.

The collection " The Labours of Hercules" is inspired by The Nemean Lion, The Lernaean Hydra, The Ceryneian Hind, The Stables of Augeias, The Stymphalian Birds, The Girdle of Hippolyte and The Golden Apples of The Hesperides.
