(1221) Amor, feelings of discomfort

The discovery of the asteroid Amor in the year 1932, occurred at the algid moment in the history of racism of the twentieth century, as it was preceded by the discovery of the planet Pluto in the year 1930 (whose photografic captures prior to its discovery date back to the year 1914) and the perihelion passage of the object Salacia approximately in the year 1926 (although its first photographic captures would not occur until 1982, nor its discovery until 2004).

Thus, from a historical point of view, together with the ideological racism related with the planet Pluto and the social and institutional discrimination related with the object Salacia, at that epoch, the emotional and physiologial aspects related with the asteroid Amor must also be considered.

(1221) Amor is related with the emotional and physiological effect that causes the physical presence and closeness of another person.

Roman mythology

Amor is the Latin name for Eros, the god of sexual attraction and passionate love in Greek mythology, equivalent to Cupid in Roman mythology.

(1221) Amor is related with the emotional and physiological effect that causes the physical presence and closeness of another person.

The discovery of (1221) Amor, at the beginning of the thirties, it has been a source of a lot of symbolic images, for example the movie "King Kong" (1933) or the comic "Superman" (1932) ('It is an aeroplane... a bird... it`s Superman!'); in cartoons, when a woman appears and the heart starts in and out of the chest with the heart beats (love at first sight); or in the old movies, where ladies dance in the stage showing the legs and later come to the tables to talk with people.


Another image of the asteroid (1221) Amor is the happiness of children, when parents come back to home after work (dogs are even more emotive). In general, (1221) Amor represents the feeling of well-beings that appears when the loved person is close.
