The Owls Nest

In paganism, owls symbolize wisdom, the unseen, and transformation, often seen as messengers, spiritual guides, and sacred animals associated with deities like Athena. They are linked to the mystical and feminine principles of the night, the moon, and the underworld, and their ability to see in the dark represents the ability to perceive hidden truths and secrets. In some traditions, particularly in Celtic and some Native American beliefs, they are also connected to the Crone aspect of the Goddess or to death, though they can also represent guidance through the afterlife or protection.

Wisdom and perception

  • Seeing the unseen: Due to their keen night vision, owls are seen as having the ability to perceive hidden truths, see through deception, and see into the darkness of souls.
  • Sacred animal to deities: In ancient Greek mythology, the owl was sacred to Athena, the goddess of wisdom, leading to the owl being a symbol of knowledge and strategy.
  • Symbol of inner knowledge: Owls are associated with a spiritual path that requires looking inward to find answers, as well as the practical wisdom gained from observation and patience.

Guidance and transition

  • Underworld guide: In some Norse and Celtic traditions, owls are viewed as guides to the spirit world and the underworld, leading souls through the transition between worlds.
  • Messengers: They can be seen as messengers from the spirit world, carrying omens or guidance.
  • Transition into the unknown: Their association with the night makes them a symbol of transition, particularly for those starting a new spiritual path, as they help one navigate the "darkness" of the unknown.

Feminine energy: As nocturnal creatures, owls are connected to the feminine, the moon, and the magic of the night.

The Crone aspect: In some Celtic traditions, the owl is particularly associated with the Crone aspect of the Goddess, symbolising wisdom gained through life experience.

Magic and prophecy: The owl is a bird of magic and prophecy, often associated with clairvoyance and the ability to see what others cannot.
