The Native Owl Symbol represents a bird of wisdom and intuition, magic and prophecy. The owl in legend is described as a messenger between the living world and the spirit world. Many find the sight of a random owl to be a harbinger of an important message or dream. Some First Nations believed that the sound of the Owl was a call to summon the spirit world.
