I immediately realised that it was not there by chance and that it means a lot of the Native Indians of America. I got onto this site and enjoyed reading all the information. I would love to know what you think. It was laying tip on left with spike on the right across the entrance. I was mesmerised by it when I saw it. Would love to hear from you. I live in Albury New South Wales in Australia. Erika I have just moved into a new unit that I purchased and right at the front door was a black and white feather.

One foot stepped over it...but something made me step back and pick it up. I felt foolish as the guard to the building were probably laughing at me...but inside I was happy . That morning I asked my guides for a sign and I felt the feather was it. It is about 3 " long. black until the tip, then white and when I turned it over one side of the black feather was indigo bluw...very pretty. I don't know what kind of feather this would be and why outside a corporate building? Can you tell me what kind of feather this would be and possibly what this would mean? I truly enjoyed your site and reading comments. I am glad I looked up finding feathers.

What a beautiful web-site. I found a crow feather today (in my laundry) and stumbled upon your web-site while seeking the symbolism of a crow feather. I thoroughly enjoyed reading other's posts. I had a dream near to 6 months ago. It was so vivid, beautiful, and puzzling. I had a fiery red quetzal in the pupil of my eye. (I have never seen a living quetzal in my waking life-only illustrations) It was not in distress, but it's beak had gotten caught in one of it's long tail feathers while preening. I was watching the quetzal in my pupil(in a mirror) and guiding it with my thoughts while it untangled its beak. It was a beautiful dream and still resonates strongly with me. Any ideas? Wow.

There must have been over 200 birds flying from tree to tree and making the most incredible noise, it was just awesome! As my husband and I watched out the window from way up high in a tree a small blackish feather came floatng down, I have some mobility issues due to arthritis but I :knew: that this feather was a gift to me and I had my husband help me out to the backyard where I collected the one and only feather that was given. It had landed on a large broccoli plant leaf and was easy for me to find. For some reason I knew that I was only to gather it and I warned my husband not to touch it. I now am going to either include it in a collage painting or a amulet bag. The crows they stayed for about fifteen minutes and then en masse took off. I live in Portland OR and we do have lots of crows, but to see so many at once was unusual. 3 days later I look out the back window and there is another crow feather, this one a wing or tail feather It was sticking straight up off the ground vertical with the quill part down stuck in the blades of grass. I went out and gathered that one also. Now I am just trying to figure out what this means. I don't feel any negative connitation with these feather gifts. I think that this may mean growth of some kind for me.. Anyway I like your blog and will book mark it. I am a solitary pagan.

I do not live in an area that would normally be visited by bluebirds, and I am pretty sure that bluebirds do not eat seed. This bird stayed for quite a while, and I just had a sense that it was some sort of a message from my brother.....thoughts? I had also had a dream at about this same time that my brother came to me to tell me that I should "have a great time" (It was a VERY happy, reassuring type of dream, and I was left feeling like he was o.k., and had been ready to move on) 2)I found a red-tailed hawk feather when I was with a person that I have always felt a very strong connection to, yet somehow haven't managed to connect with....if that makes any sense. 3)recently, walking in a cemetery with my husband, I found a crow feather with the tip pointing north. (for some reason I noticed that) The feather, location, and direction all felt significant, but i don't know why. Any ideas, anyone? Thanks very much for any thoughts on any of the above scenarios!

My cousin recently lost her battle with a brain tumor and I started finding the feathers after she died. Do you have any thoughts on what this could mean?

I'm unsure of the meaning of this, but I know is does hold a powerful meaning. My fiance is part Indian, we both agree we met with the help of God and feel we are soulmates. Both of us are intune with the spiritual world and very "spiritually" connected with one another. He is currently deployed, we talk everyday. On Saturday I had to fly my youngest son home to spend the summer with his father and so yesterday was feeling very alone, which is when I found the feather. What is it's possible meaning? Thank you, Kitty Hi,

Many years ago i heard that the notches made in the feathers (by natives) represented something; i.e. one notch ment warrior. However, that is the only one i remember. I have no idea where i seen it, and it would be very helpful to us if you had an idea where to find it. I've searched the web and came across you. Please help.
