Melusine is a mermaid-like character from European folklore, cursed to take the form of a serpent from the waist down. Later depictions sometimes changed this to a fish tail. At some point, possibly in the late nineteenth century, her name became attached to the two-tailed mermaid of heraldry.

Rusalkas are the Slavic counterpart of the Greek sirens and naiads, often seducing sailors to their doom. The nature of rusalkas varies among folk traditions, but according to ethnologist D.K. Zelenin they all share a common element: they are the RESTLESS SPIRITS OF UNCLEAN DEAD. They are usually the ghosts of young women who died a violent or untimely death, either by murder or suicide, before their wedding, especially by drowning. Rusalkas are said to inhabit lakes and rivers.

The best-known example of mermaids in literature is probably Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale, "The Little Mermaid", first published in 1837. The title character, youngest of the Merman-king's daughters, falls in love with a human prince[au] and also longs for an eternal soul like humans, despite the shorter lifespan. The two cravings are intertwined: only by achieving true love will her soul bind with a human's and become everlasting.

Ok, we have a little background on mermaids. Take a look at this pic. What do you see?

We have discussed Titans/giants. We have discussed many, many things that may seem mythologic but we know that we have been lied to over and over.

You may remember that at some point, we discussed APINs and LPINs and the overlay of earth's magnetic grid lines. And how the light and dark forces have been at battle for eons. Are there remnants of these ancient battles on earth's landscape? I have questions about this mermaid and the placement of her.

In addition to the mermaid, there is a smaller figure "under" her. I believe that it is Queen Califa - the founder of California.

When I think Mermaid, I think of Starkist Tuna. Remember her? Chicken of the Sea? What do we know about "chicken" and "water" and the coast of California?

If you have researched Bob Hope, this fits perfectly into my thought path.

Think about all the nefarious activity that happens on the west coast and then reflect on the description of the mermaid at the beginning of this thread.

In 1984, the Terminal Island cannery operations were shut down. In 1988, Heinz spun off its pet food brands (including its flagship 9 Lives cat food brand, which was introduced as a tuna-based cat food in 1959) into a separate division ( Heinz sold both divisions to Del Monte in 2002).

The Getty is also in the area. And there is one more feature in the landscape that needs to be pointed out? Do you see it?

A huge rabbit just east of the mermaid. Coincidence? I don't know but certainly curious. Told you this was going to be wild.

And we can't forget about Hollywood.
