pogonyaev

Answer and Explanation:

Phoenix can be compared to the bird Phoenix in Egyptian mythology, which burns itself and changes into ashes and again recreates new life.

In every difficulty, Phoenix seems to be losing hope such as burning of Phoenix bird into ashes and when she gets victory over the obstacles, she seems to be regaining her hope such as recreation of life of Phoenix from ashes.

Phoenix Jackson, as a character, can be seen as the epitome of what the phoenix symbolizes which are hope, security, and a promise for the futur and Her journey is reminiscent of the legend of the phoenix; she goes through many changes and overcomes the obstacles that await her, she sometimes behaves in a way we would equate with an animal, and even in her appearance we can find similarites.
