God Kairos (lat. Caerus, other Greek. Καιρός) the ancient Greek god of a happy moment.
Kairos is an elusive moment of good fortune that always comes unexpectedly, and therefore it is very difficult to take advantage of it.
In the hands of Kairos ⚖️ Libra, their joint image symbolizes the justice of fate, sending success to those who deserve it. Kairos is the youngest son of Zeus, he is depicted without clothes with a long large forelock, for which he could be grabbed (caught) Kairos has wings, he is fast, unexpected as a happy moment (it is impossible to predict his appearance) and also escaping at a rapid speed, unfortunately its easy to miss...
After all, catching Kairos means catching good luck. Which, as you know, just as easily slips out of your hands.
Kairos is a way out of cyclic time, into linear time, a rush towards spiritual immortality, Kairos shows that a moment can become eternity, that time can be controlled (the similarity of time with a film that can be accelerated, slowed down, rewound or Kairos is eternally running in a spiral 🧬 of time, he is in constant rapid motion and that, generated by the seasons, he constantly rotates in Eternity. Kairos moves silently and dexterously among people and runs so fast that he cannot be seen or caught.
If time is intensive (every next moment destroys the previous one), then space is extensive, it allows the possibility of coexistence of “one next to the other”, and thus it is precisely thanks to the spatial dimension of the world that the illusion of eternal stay is created. You can see Kairos - an auspicious moment - only if you meet the deity face to face. Then you need to act instantly and deftly, because only in this short moment is it possible to grab Kairos by the forelock. If you succeed, consider that you have caught your life chance. If you hesitate, stay in indecision and thoughts, the swift Kairos will run past, and show you his smooth bald head. According to Callistratus, a lock of hair on Kairos' forehead indicates that he is easy to catch when he rushes towards you, face to face, but if he has already flown by, this means that the time limit for the action has expired, which is an auspicious moment (by Kairos) you neglected, and it will not be returned.

Kairos as portrayed in a 16th-century fresco by Francesco Salviati

Callistratus describes a bronze statue of Kairos of extraordinary beauty, created in the 4th century BC. e. Greek sculptor Lysippus and is considered his best work. The famous master depicted Kairos as a young man standing on a ball, balancing on his fingertips, wings on his feet. In his left hand he holds a scale and in his right a razor. In front, on his forehead, eyebrow and cheek, a long thick strand of hair falls, growing on top of his head, and behind his head is practically bald, except for a few hairs.

Hi, I keep an eye out for Brits and saw you are active now. You may want to put links to where you source your images as some people check for that. There are also concerns about using 'AI' tools to generate posts, so it has to all be your own work.
