Dreaming of Owl

For those who work by night or seek what is hidden, physicians, watchmen, diviners, the owl is favorable, a guide in their own element.

The night birds were held ill-omened for ventures, an owl on the house predicts undertakings that falter and news that arrives heavy.

The owl is the wisdom that only works in the dark, the part of you that sees clearly precisely where the daylight mind goes blind. Its visit means you are ready to know something you could only learn at night.

An owl that frightens you carries knowledge you have called morbid so you would not have to hold it, mortality, endings, the true shape of a situation. The dread is not the owl, it is the seeing.
