Editing Winged unicorn (section)

==Origin==
===Etymology===
In some literature and media, it has been referred to as an '''alicorn''', a word derived from the Italian word {{Lang|it|alicorno}},<ref>{{cite book |last=Shepard |first=Odell |title=The Lore of the Unicorn |publisher=Unwin and Allen |year=2008 |orig-year=1930 |isbn=9781437508536 |location=London}}</ref> or as a '''pegacorn''', a [[portmanteau]] of pegasus and unicorn.

===Origin and Symbolism===
As a combination of the unicorn and Pegasus, who are characterized as symbols of purity, poetry, reverie, and magic, winged unicorns naturally carry both portfolios of symbolism, and are depicted in [[drawing]]s and cited in [[Channeling (as a medium)|channeling]]-type visions.
