Medusa is a well-known figure from Greek mythology and is often associated with symbolism related to fear, death, and transformation. Here are some common interpretations of Medusa's symbolism:

Medusa's serpentine hair and ability to turn people to stone symbolize her power and strength. In some interpretations, she is seen as a warrior or protector. Her ability to turn people to stone also represents death and fear. Her gaze is said to be so terrifying that it could kill anyone who looked at her directly.
Transformation: Medusa's story also represents transformation. According to some versions of the myth, she was once a beautiful woman who was cursed by Athena and transformed into a monster after being raped by Medusa's boyfriend Poseidon in Athena's temple. This transformation represents the idea that beauty and power can be fleeting and that one's fortunes can change quickly. She is seen as a symbol of female power and rage. She is a representation of the anger and frustration that women can experience in a patriarchal society. In some cultures, Medusa's image is used as a protective symbol. Her ability to turn people to stone is seen as a way to ward off evil and protect the home or the wearer of the symbol.
