Friday: Feathers Forever

2 Aug

“It’s not enough to have the feathers.

You must dare to fly!”
― Cass van Krah
**************
It’s Fiday, AGAIN! Time really flies by, doesn’t it? Speaking of flying, I found another lucky feather on my walk the other night. Lucky pennies, lucky feathers, I’ve been finding quite a few lately. Combined with prayers and good thoughts from friends and family, things are looking bright and hopeful. A new house, a new start, a new life. (I’ll have to find a special place for all my lucky feathers.)

“I dare to fly.”

Meaning of Feathers

The Meaning of Feathers plays an important role in the belief system of Native American Indians. Their beliefs are based on Animism which embodies the spiritual idea that all natural things within the universe, including birds, have souls or spirits. Animists believe that souls or spirits exist, not only in humans, but also in birds, their feathers and in animals, plants, rocks and natural phenomena. The doctrine of animism is that everything is alive, and possesses an inherent virtue, power and wisdom.
