The Knot of Hercules Greek: O Kōmbōs tou ēraklē
Symbol of love & Friendship
Hercules, the son of Zeus, the King of gods, and, Alcmane, a mortal, was a demigod in Ancient Greece. He was most notably known for his superhuman strength and bravery. Somewhere between history and mythology, the Knot of Hercules was created, a powerful symbol of unity. The Ancient Greeks believed it had potent healing qualities. Throughout the millennia it has come to symbolize everlasting love, commitment and marriage.
Aristotle, Ancient Greek Philosopher, 384–322BC, said:
Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.
May the Knot of Hercules inspire you to fill your life with everlasting love and friendship.
