In these times of uncertainty and chaos, my spirit yearns for wisdom. The night vision of the owl associates the species with insight and a mythological connection with knowledge. Athena was the Greek goddess of wisdom and strategic warfare. She is frequently depicted with an owl next to her. The owl of Minerva, Athena’s Roman counterpart, is the symbol of knowledge, wisdom, and discernment throughout Western culture.
My owls of wisdom are perched on the Celtic Shield Knot symbolizing protection, the interconnectedness of all things, both physically and spiritually. This is my prayer for the universe. The horizon implies there are two ways of interpreting the image of Wisdom perched in space on the symbol of eternal unity.
