The swan has carried more symbolic weight in European tradition than almost any other animal — beauty understood as divine since at least the Greeks, grace that the old stories treated as a kind of power in disguise. The Moon in Carolina host Shelby Bundy traces the folklore from Apollo's sacred bird to the Irish Children of Lir, through the belief that swans arrive from the Otherworld in the dark months of the year, and the quiet folk tradition that a person cannot die peacefully on a pillow stuffed with swan feathers.
