In regards to your question, the eagle is really a phoenix. The phoenix represents to me many things. And thing that stands out is how phoenix is burned up and reduced to ashes, it is then reborn and rises above the dust and ashes. To me, this is a significant symbol for the Romany and Jewish people, as we too have been "burned up" through fiery trials and tribulations, but we have also risen above the ashes. Or at least, through our spiritual traditions, we have the means to rise above. Hope this helps. I will be writing a journal about the phoenix that will hopefully share a little more about this mythological creature I have such a strong affinity with.
