The eagle is the king of the skies. Within many ancient belief circles, eagles were of the highest symbols. Indeed, they are only rivaled by the serpent, which is the prince of the Earth. Both of these creatures were so contrasting that if they were made into a hybrid, a 'chimera', the result would be the dragon, which is the supreme being of all existence. In modern occultic beliefs, this symbolism has been expanded to the point of understanding the animal symbols in old prophecies as actual humans. It is said that the 'eagle' is to be feared, and this has been proven over the centuries by national powers that are represented by the eagle. Such include the imperial eagle powers, such as Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Imperial Russia (though their eagle has always been their animal symbol even up to now). Of course there's the US as well, which has a bald eagle obsession.
