Fun fact, the original phoenix was likely meteorite.

People saw a firy bird in the sky but when they went to where they thought the bird had landed they only found fire and the stone egg.

I think the psychological archetypes have a certain power to them that allows people to reach what Jung called individuation. I think he was also the one that researched these archetypes the most as well. The Phoenix as a symbol and archetype has a lot of hidden meanings to it.

The Phoenix is a symbol of power, strength and renewal. It has been associated with the sun many times in the past and I think it has a lot of similarities to it as well.
