Birds have always been symbols of the soul, even showing up in published sermons in different religions. Their messages are as follows:

Raven: “Cawk. Wake up. Pay attention – message coming in.”

Dove: "I am the oldest soul symbol and am found as far back as Egyptian hieroglyphics."

Eagle: "I am heaven's messenger and tell you to rise and soar above in your spiritual quest."

Hummingbird: "I am the search, using courage and stamina."

Owl: "I am knowledge of life and death, and I tell you not to fear the dark."

Phoenix: "I am rebirth and the resurrection."

Swan: "I am the union of all opposites."

Peacock: "I am immortality, the totality of the incorruptible soul."

Heron: "I am the symbol of life eternal."
