A Message From Your Guardian Angel
The Owl
"Wisdom arrives with the night. There is a secret in your life that is hidden below the surface. Open your eyes to the lessons darkness can teach, for in the shadows, truth often hides."
The Owl card brings with it a profound sense of wisdom and esoteric knowledge. As the guardian of the night, the Owl opens the door to hidden truths and obscured insights. It represents the ability to discern and find what is hidden in the nocturnal world around us, suggesting that you have the power to see beyond ordinary human perceptions and understand the unseen. The Owl signifies the opportunity to tap into your inner wisdom and allow it to guide you through the darkness. It urges you to recognize your innate ability to discover profound lessons, even in the most unexpected places.
Much like the Owl who protects its home and offspring with unyielding determination, this card encourages you to guard the wisdom you hold dearly and share with others when appropriate. It reminds you to protect those around you with the same vigor and strength. It's a sign that you can use your knowledge and wisdom to help guide others on their journey. You may already be doing this, as an adviser or a mentor, someone to whom others naturally come for advice or wisdom.
Notably, the Owl cultivates its wisdom through the embracing of its environment, the darkness. It invites you to acknowledge that wisdom does not always arrive in the light of day, but also in the twilight hours. It inspires you to open your eyes to the lessons that darkness can teach. Courage, resilience, patience. Pain and hardship are often challenging darkness that we are forced to endure, but contain valuable lessons.
The Owl's depiction in the card, guarding its tree, is one of confident, yet calm protection. It watches over its young with an unyielding resolve, a clear and precise focus upon what is truly important. It stays firm, steadfast in its charge, its gaze locked onto the world, as though nothing else exists. Our Owl is fixedly gazing into the night, ready to tackle all threats that might lurk in its pitch dark corners, teaching us to be brave and secure while we pursue our wisdom.
Associated with a certain divine sentience, the Owl is often thought to be a messenger of our guardian angels. It is our silent guide through the seeming impenetrability of the night, guiding us through our personal darkness fearlessly and wisely, and bringing us messages of greater higher wisdom, spiritual understanding, and divine guidance.
