'''{{Style S-Small capitals|Triton}}'''. The san of Poseidon and Amphitrite, whose body from the waist upwards was that of a man and whose lower limbs were those of a dolphin. Triton belongs in esoteric interpretation to the group of fish symbols — such as ''Oannes ''(Dagon), the Matsya or Fish‐ avatar, and the ''Pisces'', as adopted in the Christian symbolism. The dolphin is a constellation called by the Greeks ''Capricornus'', and the latter is the Indian ''Makâra''. It has thus an anagrammatical significance, and its interpretation is entirely occult and mystical, and is known only to the advanced students of Esoteric Philosophy. Suffice to say that it is as physiological as it is spiritual and mystical. (See ''Secret Doctrine'' II., pp. 578 and 579.)
