Skanda's mount
Lord Krishna is an avatar of Lord Vishnu, who is considered the maternal uncle of Lord Skanda, the senapati whose mount is the peacock. So, yet another legend says Lord Krishna wears the peacock feathers to wish Lord Skanda success in his endeavours.
It is a symbol of beauty and knowledge. The eye in the feather represents the divine wisdom or the third eye of Krishna. It helps one attain the supreme knowledge of the self. It symbolically states that wisdom of the mind and love of the heart makes one existence whole and for this blessed state, it is very important to worship the Lord adorned with his feathers.
