Ruben Najera: Antler, Owl on Stump
Ruben Najera: Antler, Owl on Stump
Na-je-ra
Its sharp beak and piercing eyes convey a sense of wisdom and ancient knowledge, as if it holds the secrets of the forest within its very being. This majestic creature appears frozen in time, as if caught in a moment of silent contemplation. The contrast between the rough texture of the stump and the smooth elegance of the owl's form creates a mesmerizing display of nature's raw beauty. It is a haunting reminder of the symbiotic relationship between man and animal, capturing both the fragility and strength of our connection to the natural world.
Owl (Muhukwi): Owls can see what others cannot and this is a large part of Owl (Muhukwi) meaning. Owl's ability to do this reminds us of the importance of both worlds: the physical as well as the spiritual, perhaps the known and the unknown. Our willingness and courage to transform the unknown in ourselves into the known is a true source of wisdom. The Zuni Pueblo people call the owl "The Night Grandfather" because he does his work at night. Clairvoyant properties and uncovering deception have always been associated with Owl. Its connection with wisdom comes from Owl's ability to discern that which cannot be seen.
