In Greek mythology, the peacock is a symbol of Hera,
the
goddess married to Zeus, who herself represented marriage.
Myth has the peacock representing fidelity, as it dies of grief,
or remains
single, if it loses its mate.

A beautiful summer ceremony takes place on the lake at the
Mill in Spring Lake Heights.
