When speaking of blond hair, some questions in the mind. Which is why so broad admiration for the blond hair? Why "men prefer blondes "? Why dark-haired women of the Mediterranean constantly chlorine hair, and why people of African origin dye their black and yellow hair?

The answer to these questions lies in the remote past, but not overly complicated, but is on the global gold veneration. Gold is the symbol of the sun and trademarks of the key features granted to the sun as a deity: power, strength and durability. But the symbolism of gold is not only physical but spiritual. Like the sun, which represents the gold itself shines with a steady light, not obscure and not smudging. This feature is considered not only physical but spiritual, referring to her as to the qualities of purity, wisdom, nobility, respect, divinity, enlightenment, and eternity.

Clearly there is no place on earth where the sun has been worshiped in one way or another. The Bible expresses the character and importance of the sun in places. The prophet Malachi says, "The Sun of Righteousness will rise with healing in His wings ..." (Chapter 4, 2), and the Psalms says, "For the Lord God is a sun and shield ... "(Ch. 84, 12). A common phrase in modern Hebrew says," As clear as the sun ", which expresses the fact that the sun acts on the daylight and has nothing to hide. The Scandinavian sun god Balder is called "The Eye of Heaven", and when he is killed by Hodder, god of darkness and hell a long period of winter darkness was created when nothing grows until the sun is reborn. Santa Claus, whose dwelling is the North Pole, the sun is young at this festival, as shown by its red clothing (symbolizing his snow white beard, rather than old age). In ancient Egypt, sun worship was highly developed, and any of the Phoenicians or the Vikings may have been those who had brought to America (s. below).

But what does this have to do with hair gold? In many faiths human hair is considered a person's physical and spiritual power. Biblical Samson (Shimshon in Hebrew, whose name is connected with the sun - Shemesh), called "the hero", lost his great power when his head was shaved of her hair gorgeous, and just when it started to grow Again, it was capable of destroying an entire temple by cutting down their pillars, with their own hands. The combination of golden hair, then, represents the divine superiority, power and control.

The golden color can change the most beautiful red hair darker, and despite the visible differences between them, symbolizing the connection with the Sun as a supreme deity, and spiritual characteristics attributed to it. Thus, even in cultures where black hair and brown are considered beautiful, the colors lighter is believed to express special qualities. The Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl - the initiator of the Kon Tiki and Ra travel from South America to Polynesia and North from Africa to America - has mentioned a myth, told Americans natural black hair, saying that major American cultures (Mayas, Incas and Aztecs) were created by white-skinned, bearded people, these people, it is said, came from an unknown place and disappeared into the Pacific Ocean, where it reappeared in the shape of the red giant hair sculpture Aku Aku Polynesian culture.

It is quite possible that the bearded white men were descendants of the Vikings, who arrived to America in the eighth to tenth centuries, but could have been mar-Phoenicians, who came to America long before North Africa, bringing the parts of the former Egyptian culture - like the pyramids, for example. Red-haired people are fairly common among the peoples of the Mediterranean basin, which are a very mixed race, two of the most prominent mention of the Bible the same are King David and the Edomite Esau - Adom means "red" in Hebrew.

Initially, all human beings, having developed in Africa, must have had dark skin and hair, as can be seen in our closest relatives, chimpanzee, and as expected from the heat conditions of the area, the works of dark pigmentation as a protection against heat. Only when people Homo sapiens left Africa and reached Europe North, who could afford to waive the protection against heat, conservation of energy needed to create a dark pigment, and the means developed to protect against the cold in the form of body hair, and physical height and a bony, under heavy fur clothing. Scandinavia is the only place the world where light skin and hair has been developed.

That probably fair skin and hair was developed from an albino mutation, which is well known among the tribes dark Africa, but while in Africa is a disadvantage, in Scandinavia, had its merits and spread through the population together with the hair straight and thick beard. The initial settlement in northern Europe is said to have taken place towards the end of the last ice age, while the ice was beginning to retire, about 12,000 before present, at that time, settlers were quite isolated from the rest of the continent, thus developing a purebred blonde robust. With the melting ice these people began to move in search of more land with food it can provide. One can assume that their minds and strong bodies, accustomed to the North harsh conditions, made them stronger than other races, and adjustment to overcome any conflict between the tribes. These clashes, either by violence (rape) or by mutual consent, lead to mixing and assimilation of the races, creating all kinds of hair colors that appear throughout the European population: the righteous, gold, carrot, copper and brown, the result of a mixture of blond and black and brown.

Next worship the sun, many gods and heroes that represents it is considered in many places around the world who have blond or golden hair, and since the Sun represents fertility, as did also figures symbolizing love as a sign of fertility. This is how Robert Graves presented by the White Goddess of fertility among the rest, in his book by that name: "The Goddess is a lovely, slender woman with a hooked nose, deathly pale face, lips red as rowan berries, strikingly blue eyes and long blond hair ... "(p. 24). This description is very close to the appearance of a Viking woman, although Graves fixes its origin in the Mediterranean basin, among the population Dark hair. The goddess of love Aphrodite, is said to have left the sea in Cyprus, according to many original paintings of ancient Greece, it is assumed that she has dark hair -- as is indeed often presented; Botticelli, however, he painted his famous picture of her with golden hair.

Aphrodite is similar to Fig Celtic "Niamah with golden hair, whose name means "sun tear" his divine personality is expressed in the story of how he conducted the hero Oisin his horse to the post-death "Islands of Happiness." The Celts of dark or brown hair, had also called a sun god Lugh, who was described as having gold hair gleamed in the sunlight. Like him, on a dime 14. French Duende, the figure of King Arthur of Wales appears with golden hair, despite the Welsh are generally dark hair, the whole picture is imbued with the atmosphere of golden sunshine. Arthur was originally known as a military leader of the first 5.6 percent., Y the real environment full of medieval original tribal membership, rather than put it on a regional connection golden divine environment: the link with the Arthurian myths die and rising sun god, and even with the figure of Jesus as a symbol of the sun. It is well known that Jesus was always painted by Christian artists such as having golden hair, in contrast blunt its Mediterranean origin.

The Deity of the sun could be, then, whether man or woman, anti-Semitic myths that had both the god Shamash Babylonian and Canaanite or goddess Shapash Shamash. An indigenous history of the sun deity is spoken of a Mexican goddess Chalchuialico call, which was a sun goddess fourth rule after of the three before she was gone, but before becoming a goddess of the sun was a goddess dressed in green water, which had copper hair. For hundreds of years sun goddess who provides light and warmth, while women and men appeared on earth. But other gods jealous, and the God of Darkness (reminiscent of the Scandinavian Hodder) bothered him until tears from the earth and everything faded into darkness. In the end, the gods decided to create a fifth sun, and it had to make a sacrifice, which would be the sun and moon. The sacrifice to the sun, would be the little goddess Nanna (again, reminiscent of Old World deity associated with the Nordic countries Balder). While the gods were burning their sacrifice, an eagle (one of the most prominent symbols of the sun) took his body by fire in the form of a fireball, fixed in heaven and was wrapped in her golden hair.

Many hair gold figures appear in folk tales, which have developed from ancient myths, a woman was legendary Isolde, Tristan's lover, famous not only for medieval poetry and a novel by the 19th cent. The French author Joseph Bedier, but also Wagner's opera. Legend has it that when Mark, King of Cornwall, Isolde's golden hair I saw the nest of a bird, said she would marry only the owner of that hair. When it was discovered that the hair belonged to Isolde, the Princess Royal of Ireland, Tristan was sent to bring it to Mark, and how she fell in love madly. Isolde is a love goddess typical for the hero must die in the end.

It is also possible to find blond heroines of fairy tales the Brothers Grimm. One of these heroines is Rapunzel, who said he had "long hair beautiful, as well as gold thread, another is the Goose Girl, whose waving locks "were of pure silver. Folk tales, in turn have become modern fiction, and other divine woman with golden hair is Irene, heroin of The Forsyte Saga Galsworthy. She is described by the author as resembling a pagan goddess, whose figure is stated that the goddess of love.

From literature to real life, the following type of Goddess of Love is among the goddesses of our times, which are the movie stars. Some of them are known to have dyed blonde hair, in order to reinforce this concept of them, and one of those modern goddess of love is Madonna, who is not even beautiful, but are distinguished by their hair. Best right to the title, however, is Marilyn Monroe, who became famous for his movie men prefer blondes. Monroe certainly had the appearance of a goddess of love, with his hair dyed dark blond original curves your beautiful body, and the many stories about her relationships with men, the increase of that illusion. That combination of their appearance, their profession and their behavior, Marilyn Monroe was certainly a throw back to pagan times and sun worship. No wonder, then, that many women like to imitate it, at least to be fair, but those steps back can also affect men with dark hair, who prefer to increase their foreign character in this way.
