Recently, I've noticed the owl has been seen over and over worldwide in magazine ads, Etsy, and television so I thought I would investigate the symbolism of this creature and learn why the owl is not just a trendy craft item, but a sign of the times.
For the most part, in many cultures, the owl represents wisdom, truth, patience, darkness, a death messenger, divination, solitude, detachment, wisdom, change, totem of clairvoyants and mystics. With so many challenges in the world today, we can't help but be drawn to the owl because it's such a powerful image of what is happening in our lives and the earth today. The need for wisdom, change, truth and patience all resonate within our society.
The next time you see an owl, consider your challenges and look to the owl for inspiration.
Here are some owl pattern links for knit or crochet projects.
