  The Phoenix and the Turtle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Phoenix and the Turtle is a poem by William Shakespeare.
Allegorically shadowing the truth of Loue, in the constant Fate of the Phoenix and Turtle.

 Phoenix and the Turtle
To see ‘The Phoenix and the Turtle’ merely as an example of Platonism, the Court of Love, mysticism, the parliament of birds, or the legend of the phoenix--though all of these traditions are relevant--does not explain, and may distort, the individual organization of the particular poem.
The idea that Elizabeth and Essex were Shakespeare Phoenix and Turtle--a fact which the poem’s context forces us to recognize--meets resistance primarily because Elizabeth was unquestionably alive at the time of the publication of this poem purporting to commemorate her death.
The relationship of the Phoenix and the Turtle is praised through the intellectual game of extending, as though they were literal truths, the common Platonic metaphors of love.

Each is circular, measures roughly two inches in diameter, and is attached to a gold chain that seems to lengthen as needed to fit around a particular wearer's neck yet not be too loose as to allow the amulet to fall off easily.
Mystical scholars have noted that while a single possessor can own and use the dragon and phoenix amulets (or the turtle and tiger amulets) together, mixing amulets from the two pairs (dragon and tutle, dragon and tiger, phoenix and turtle, phoenix and tiger) causes the magic of the amulets to go dormant.
The Onyx Turtle Amulet: This amulet grants its wearer immunity from harm, the ability to speak all languages known to man, and great strength and wisdom.

The phoenix is reborn through its death in its palm tree nest; therefore, the dove in sharing the essence of the phoenix is also eternal, co-supreme (PandT 25, 41).
Although the tree which serves as the phoenix' throne is not identified as a palm in the reference, its uniqueness is stressed as it is in "the sole Arabian tree" of PandT 2.
A few allusions in Shakespeare that relate to the regeneration of the phoenix from her ashes may add support to Gillham's argument that bird and tree are vitally connected through the ashes/seed-dust imagery.

There are flashes of beauty in most of them; but, considering the way in which such flashes of beauty are shot and showered over and through the poetry of 1590–1610, this goes but a little way, or, rather, no way at all, towards identification.
As for The Phoenix and the Turtle, the extreme metaphysicality of parts of it—

 Welcome to Wings of Flame
I have not seen a Phoenix myself, except in paintings, for it is a very rare and visits the country (so at least they say in Heliopolis) only at intervals of 500 years, on the occasion of the death of the parent bird.
There is a story about the phoenix: it brings its parent in a lump of myrrh all the way from Arabia and buries the body in the Temple of the Sun.
The birds flew with the Phoenix to the temple of the sun that the Egyptians had built at Heliopolis, city of the sun.

 C. GILLHAM, 'Single Nature's Double Name': Some Comments on The Phoenix and Turtle
In early speculations on the phoenix, this legendary bird is seen to be naturally related to the palmtree.
This is to show that, long before Pliny pointed out the sexual correlations in the fertility of the palm (phoinix), the tree and the bird had been seen to be related by their common reliance on either the substance or the motif of the fertile ashes.
The ambiguous allocation of sexes in the Song of Solomon (the phoenix is meant to be the bride only,33 but the turtle may mean both, bride and groom) may provide a background setting off some of the seeming [page 133] inconsistencies of PandT.

John Roe's introduction to each poem examines the classical and Renaissance traditions behind the poetry and the conditions under which the poems were produced.
The length and depth of discussion of each poem's introduction is not as great as one usually finds for an edition of, say, The Sonnets; but these poems have not stirred so much controversy or confusion either among the reading public or in academic analysis.
Both this NCS edition by Roe and the Burrow Oxford edition were released too early to benefit from fascinating new insights into the ever-puzzling bantam of this flock: The Phoenix and the Turtle.
