Oh! Let me tell you about this adorable owl is, the details are out of this world. Every feather on the owl's body is carefully carved, giving it a lifelike appearance. And those vivid turquoise eyes? They add such a nice touch of color and personality to the owl. I can't help but be captivated by how they seem to come alive when catching a glimpse of light.
Owl (Muhukwi): Owls can see what others cannot and this is a large part of Owl (Muhukwi) medicine. 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.”
