  In the mid-1980's, M. Gromov used his machinery of the $h$-principle to prove
that there exists totally real embeddings of $S^3$ into $\mathbb{C}^3$.
Subsequently, Patrick Ahern and Walter Rudin explicitly demonstrated such a
totally real embedding. In this paper, we consider the generic situation for
such embeddings, namely where complex tangents arise as codimension-2
subspaces. We first consider the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$ and generate
some interesting results there-in. Then, by using the biholomorphism of
$\mathbb{H}$ with the 3-sphere minus a point, we demonstrate that every
homeomorphism-type of knot in $S^3$ may arise precisely as the set of complex
tangents to an embedding $S^3 \hookrightarrow \mathbb{C}^3$. We also make note
of the (non-generic) situation where complex tangents arise along surfaces.
