Owl
The keeper of inner wisdom
Nature of the owl
The owl is a hunter of the night. Her large eyes catch the faintest light, her ears hear the softest movement. Her feathers are made in such a way that her flight makes no sound. Since ancient times she has been regarded as the bird of wisdom, companion of seeresses and keeper of the threshold between the worlds. Whoever hears her call is invited to listen inward.
Inner attitude
The owl does not judge hastily. She waits, looks and listens – and then knows. She is quiet because she has nothing to prove.
The essential qualities
- wise
- clear-sighted
- quiet
- patient
- truthful
In the dark she sees what the light conceals.
Meaning
The owl appears when something hidden calls for clarity. She invites you to trust your inner voice more than the noise around you. And she reminds you that the night, too, has its gifts.
Voice of the being
«See what lies hidden in the dark. Your eyes are made to recognise what is true there, too.»
Encounter & working together
You meet the owl in the stillness of the night. Sit in the darkness, without light, and let your eyes adjust – inside and out.
Pay attention to
- where you don't want to see something
- where silence tells you more than words
- where your intuition has long been telling you
The owl works when you are ready to look honestly.
Essence
I see clearly – even in the dark.
