Thank you SO much for posting this! It is very interesting and yes, it was such a powerful experience to watch the owls for TWO days in a row. I am so thrilled that you had the experience you describe here. Something you will carry with you forever! We are very blessed indeed! love, Fran

The first and only other time I saw one of these gorgeous creatures was several years ago, during a horseback ride in Alaska. My sister and I were slowly making our way through a dense birch forest when I noticed something out of the corner of my eye. Less than half a foot away on my right, level with my face was a huge snow owl that slowly turned it’s head in my direction and locked its laser-like gaze on me. Amazing and startling at the same time. Directly after which, an eagle took flight from it’s perch on my left. A blessed moment for an animal lover such as myself.

In Native American medicine, the owl is associated with clairvoyance, astral projection and magic. The Snowy Owls’ teaching in particular, is that true strength is gentle rather than intimidating, despite it’s power and skill, as reflected in both its’ hunting strategy as well as it’s retracted talons when walking. It is also associated with prophecy and spirit and so showing up in your life can indicate a message of honoring your own sense of timing when considering action. The 7-year cycle likely is due to the Snowy Owl’s ability to sense feast/famine however, may reflect the end or beginning of a cycle within your own lives. Interestingly the 7th/crown chakra is associated with intuition and spirituality ( as you know ).
