Symbolism of the Hippogriff
"Like a griffin, it has the head of an eagle, claws armed with talons, and wings covered with feathers, the rest of its body being that of a horse. This strange animal is called a Hippogriff." - Thomas Bulfinch, Legends of Charlemange
The hippogriff came to symbolize love and impossibility due to the unlikely combination of its parentage- the griffin and the mare being natural born enemies. A modern interpretation is that the hippogriff symbolizes the ability to overcome obstacles.
