White Crow
Believe it or not, actually i couldnt quite believe it myself either.
I saw a white crow on way to school today.
It was making so much noise on the tree that i cant help but to look up.
Cras Cras Cras it goes, (in latin it means Tomorrow)seeking for attention, the streets were rather quiet with few passerbys.
I am not sure if im the only one giving its desired attention.
As soon as i went to class, i very much forgot about it so i didnt mention it to anyone.
Till few hours ago as i was doing my research on macabre, there were crows spotted on certain pictures.
It strike me, and i and i did a fair amount of research on it as well.
I was dying to know if there would be another myth behind seeing a white crow.
In the western content, crows are a negative animal often representing death.
I was intimidated by a black crow once, blocking my way, looking all strong and mighty
In the Bible, the crow is sent by Noah to search earth after the flood. But the crow didn't told Noé that the flood was finished. So he is considered selfish. Saint Golowin thought that in Paradise, the crows had multicoloured wings. But after Adam and Eve were driven away from the Paradise, the crows started to eat carrion. So they became black-feathered. At the end of time, the crows will find their beauty again and sing harmoniously to praise God.

The White Crow/Black Crow
Ages ago, A snow-white Crow was left by the God Apollo to watch over his love, Coronis. But though Coronis was pregnant with the Sun-God's child, she admitted her passion for another man. The Crow flew off to tell Apollo of Coronis' addmission, but before the Crow could tell him, the Sun-God had already divined Coronis' infidelity.
In the fires of his revenge against Coronis, the Crow was turned black as night. Since that time, the Crows have been spirits of revenge.
Though Coronis died, Apollo managed to save the life of their child...Asclepius. Asclepius grew up and was given a gift by the Goddess Athena; blood from the veins of Medusa the Gorgon. The blood possessed the power to cure the sick, and even to raise the dead. But the power of the Gorgon's blood made Asclepius some powerful enemies, especially Hades, who complained that Asclepius unjustly depleted the population of the underworld. Zeus killed the physician with a thunderbolt...but the Crows kept the Gorgon's blood.
The Crows bring back those who have been wronged, so that they might the wrong things right. And it is said that the Crows shall remain ever black, so long as violence is repaid with violence.
