Mythology Final Project For my final project I designed a character based on the North American Horoscope and the Chinese Zodiac. These were based on the date December 17,1999 (12/17/99). This final will in tail this character's element of the psyche (conscious/ unconscious, persona, ego, projections, shadow, and his anima/ animus). I have also decided to combine this section of the final with another given section and turn this character into a new deity/ god. Therefore, we will also be focusing on the functions of mythology (cosmological, pedagogical, mystical, and sociological). With these two sections combined, I will also go over the name of the new deity and talk about his personality and his social interactions with humans and other deities like himself. The first portion of the final is looking into what the character would be characterized if categorized by the Western Horoscope …show more content…
The element associated with the Rabbit , unlike the Sagittarius, is the element Yin which translates to Earth. In Chinese zodiac telling, it pairs with each zodiac a set of numbers that prove either good or bad luck. For the Rabbit, these numbers were 3,4, and 9 as the lucky numbers, and the numbers 1,7, and 8 as the unlucky numbers.Much like the numbers, there are also a set of certain colors that also represent good or bad luck. In the case of the Rabbit, red, pink, purple, and blue are lucky colors.

    Samuel L. Jackson once said, “We’ve come a long way in our thinking, but also in our moral decay.” This quote holds true today as society stays rapidly changing and people become more and more desensitized to the horrors of the world. The line between right and wrong fades and turns to a larger gray area, and many things that happen in society today make us question how we, as a collective people, ended up where we are and how we acquired the customs we have today. Aldous Huxley, in his novel Brave New World, uses a great deal of satire and exaggeration to express his concerns for the society he was born into and bring attention to the problems of moral decay, drug dependency, and brainwashing, among other things, in the world.…

    The Ugly American depicts the difficulties the United States experienced in trying to defeat communism in Southeast Asia.

Foster, How To Read Literature Like A Professor) Thus, the traits of characters from the dominant religion’s stories appear in literacy across the globe. One figure that often appears in literature is a symbolic Christ, because the world resides in a Christian dominated culture.
