Unicorns have captured our imaginations for centuries. Their horns were sought after for medicinal and spiritual purposes all the way up through the late 1800s. Christ has been referred to as a unicorn and the unicorn's ability to purify water has been compared to Moses cleansing the waters of Marah. Scotland's National Animal is the Unicorn (can this country get any more magical?) and America's 1982 "The Last Unicorn" MAY be one of the easiest songs ever to get in your head. To sum up - there's a lot to discuss! Rediscover some magic on today's episode as we explore the history and symbolism of unicorns.
