Kartikeya on Peacock - Symbol of Courage and Divine Strength #2169102 (License: Personal Use)

This vibrant illustration depicts Kartikeya (also known as Murugan or Skanda), the Hindu god of war and victory, seated confidently atop his vahana, the peacock. He holds a bow and quiver of arrows, wears golden ornaments and a red sash, and bears the crescent moon and serpent adornments symbolic of his divine power. The peacock, with its elaborate green plumage and regal posture, represents beauty, immortality, and the subduing of ego-core themes in Kartikeya’s mythology.
