The seahorse had great mystical significance among the Ancient Greeks, European Alchemists and Asians. The Ancient Greeks and Romans believed the seahorse was an attribute of the sea god Neptune/Poseidon and as such, was considered a symbol of strength and power.

Ancient Europeans believed that the seahorse carried the souls of deceased sailors to the underworld - giving them safe passage and protection until they reached their soul’s destination. Chinese cultures believed that the seahorse was a type of sea dragon, and as such they were revered for their power and thought to be symbols of good luck; sailors have long viewed the seahorse as a good luck charm too.

In Hawaiian culture the seahorse signals eternal friendship.
