Birds: Messenger of the Gods



Different Birds and there feathers represent different things. To the indigenous people they represent the link between the physical/nature world and the spirit world. They believe that because they can fly, they are our only connection to the spirit world and they hold the power to fly between both planes and deliver messages to and from us. 

There symbolism doesn't just stop with indigenous people though. They are significant with many different religions, cultures, and beliefs of people all over the world.

Growing up my mum was very spiritual and still is. She is one of the most intelligent people I know and is creatively gifted in many areas. She is a natural researcher so has spent her entire life absorbing knowledge. I always look to her for advice, guidance and knowledge and she always seems to have the answer, or at least can point me in the right direction. She taught me about what birds mean to
