The Spirit Power of Birds


For millennia, humans have been fascinated and inspired by birds. Their wings effortlessly take them to incredible heights. Their plumages shine with every imaginable color. And their migratory journeys amaze us. These Avian traits have inspired cultures worldwide to to assign deep spiritual significance and power to birds. Ancient Druids, Native Americans, Roman augurs, and others have looked to the birds for divinatory answers to deeply spiritual questions. Present day Druidry and other NeoPagan paths can also connect to Spirit through birds.
