Anyways, I think griffins have important symbolism that I need in my life now.

I'm trying to figure out which important symbolism it might be.

For me, the two following captions make sense.

From the dictionary:

grif·fin also grif·fon or gryph·on (grif'?n).
n.
A fabulous beast with the head and wings of an eagle and the body of a lion.

Griffin Merv , popular name of Mervyn Edward Griffin
(1925– )
Television host and businessman, born in San Mateo, California, USA. Originally a singer, he appeared on The CBS Morning Show in 1956, then hosted game shows like Keep Talking for ABC. He hosted the Merv Griffin Show (1965–86), producing Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy in the 1980s. He invested in gambling casinos, becoming chairman of Resorts International, then was forced to sell his business to Coca-Cola in 1986 when he experienced financial difficulties.

-------

Over this past year the market has been a Fabulous Beast that has helped me to experience financial difficulties because of it's gambling casino aspects.
In addition, this Wheel Of Fortune has put my investment account into Jeopardy.

I clearly understand your symbolism, now.
