✨ Strix ✨

In Mythology, taken from the ancient Roman and Greek word for owl, Strix means the keenest hearing and sharpest eyesight.

A Strix (also spelled Striga, Stirge, and Strige) is a mythical owl-like creature that feeds on human flesh and blood and will curse whoever kills them. If their talons scratch someone, the person will be paralyzed.

Naturally, owls are associated with Lilith (Mesopotamian and Judaic mythology, alternatively the first wife of Adam and supposedly the primordial she-demon) & Athena (Goddess of Owls), Horus (God of kingship & the Sky).
