"A symbolic example of this secret truth is contained within the National Bird of the United States. Many Americans and people around the world think that our National Bird of the U.S. is an eagle. They are wrong. The symbolic bird you will find on the Great Seal of the United States is actually the mythical bird known as a Phoenix.
The image to the left shows the obvious attributes of the Phoenix. This final design is attributed to Charles Thomson and was adopted immediately by congress on June 20, 1782. The scroll in the beak of the Phoenix is the Latin motto of 13 letters, E Pluribus Unum, meaning in English, ” Out of Many, One”. Later an olive branch and a bundle of 13 arrows (representing peace and war, respectively) were included in the claws of the phoenix. Over its head there appears 13 stars that are arranged in rows of 1-4-3-4-1, forming a six-pointed star. The Star of David and symbol of Israel. It was officially adopted as the National Emblem in 1787.
The symbol of the Phoenix represents rebirth, and reincarnation. It was adopted on our seal under the laws of heraldry. The meaning of the word heraldry is the practice of devising, granting, displaying, describing, and recording coats of arms and heraldic badges. In each country in the world, you will find symbols that represent, and/or as a form of identification of the regime in control of the land. These symbols like the Phoenix found here in the U.S. were said to have originated as early as predynastic Egypt c. 3100 BC, an emblem known as a serekh was used to indicate the extent of influence of a particular regime."
