Bird Totem Messages
I was asked a question about hawk and owl messages. My friend described a moment in which a hawk cried out to her. Immediately following its call was the cry of an owl. After contemplating other question details and ruminating with the hawk and owl, I offered possible messages the owl and hawk may be communicating to her. My response follows:
Hawks speak to us about focus. They come to us in times when we are in the midst of a project or life situation that requires the bulk of attention. They wing their way to us when we need a reminder to concentrate.
That your hawk was immediately followed by the voice of the owl may indicate a message of transition…specifically, a change in focus.
Owls speak to us about the unseen side of life, mystery, wonder, and the “otherworldly” cycles of reality. Further, they bring us messages about change and transition.
That the hawk (focus) energy was followed by owl (transition) energy in your experience brings about the association of a “change in focus” or direction.
Further, both of these magnificent creatures are birds of prey. They are deft at getting what they want in the most efficient and effective manner. Therefore, they ask us to use the same stream-lined means at obtaining the objects of our vision for ourselves.
That both of these birds vocalized themsevels to you may indicate a need for you to use verbalization more clearly in what you are wanting. These two bird totems encourage us to enunciate our intentions and they move in alliance with our enunciations.
Stategy, concentration, confidence and patience are the watchwords given from both of these creatures.
Indeed, if you feel their calling out was a sign of warning, go with your gut instinct and explore those feelings more. Call upon hawk and owl for assistance and, thank them for their guidance.
I hope this brief summary has enabled you to take a few more steps into the depth of animal messages that are available to you. Take the time to contemplate further this experience with hawk and owl, and you will find more clarity – simply ask these regal birds for there presence, and they will make themselves (and their intentions) known to you.
