The two-headed eagle appears in Castelo Branco embroidery as an oriental influence. This is a motif common to various art forms and cultures. In the ancient civilizations of Asia Minor, it was seen as a symbol of supreme power, which was taken up again in the Middle Ages and reproduced by Europeans. In some cultures, the doubling of the head expresses authority at a higher level than the real thing, equivalent only to truly imperial sovereignty. In the Christian religion, its meaning is related to the resurrection. In a more pagan approach, it symbolizes the union of two souls in one body.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
