Learn More About The Aurora from Sleeping Beauty Drawing

"I know you! I walked with you once upon a dream.
I know you! The gleam in your eyes is so familiar a gleam.
And I know it's true that visions are seldom all they seem.
But if I know you, I know what you'll do -
You'll love me at once, the way you did once upon a dream."
- Aurora, "Once Upon a Dream," Disney's Sleeping Beauty

Aurora is the title character of the 1959 animated film Sleeping Beauty. Aurora was cursed as an infant; it was said she would die by pricking her finger on a spinning wheel before her sixteenth birthday.

She was hidden away and raised by fairies in order to avoid this fate. The spell could only be broken by a kiss from her true love.
