Skyhorn, the Unicorn
In Blanco's Magic Tails, Skyhorn was one of the very first animals to
arrive on Earth through Soy's doorway. He was a serious and tough-minded
animal with a strong sense of justice, and was one of Soy's closest friends.
Skyhorn was always near Soy (who spent most days sitting
in Big Tree's branches). Soy would tell Skyhorn and whatever other
animals were nearby, her Tails and described all she had seen and
experienced on her journey with Raven. Just before Coyote started
to cause trouble (Tail Five), a beautiful female unicorn named
Moondance stepped through Soy's doorway. She and Skyhorn
become best friends immediately.
There are many myths and legends about unicorns from all over the
world. Were they only creatures of myth, or did they really exist
at one time...? In Europe, it was believed that if a unicorn touched
a pool of water with its horn, the water would be purified. They
loved innocence and purity and were often the symbols of these
things.
If a unicorn comes to you in a dream or meditation, it could mean
you are understanding and developing your personal power. You may
be realizing that your ideas, dreams and ambitions are good and
powerful, and worthy of pursuit. You are the only one who can
bring them about, and a visit from a unicorn can mean that you
should move ahead with your ideas. You are on the 'road to success'!
Unicorns also represent possible fame or recognition for your deeds,
and prosperity.
