Something here that has me pondering the meaning and makeing me go HMMMMM. While driveing home tonight after picking up the daughter I spoted a baby crow in the road. I turned around to get a good look at him. He was standing there in the road crying out to his parents. They did not come until I was there. I tried giveing him a piece of hamburger bun. He didn't want that and started crying louder. Mamma and pappa started flying around and screaming so I picked up the little guy to get him out of the road. I wanted sooooooo bad to bring the guy home but I have 12 fur kids with claws and love the taste of meat. I would love to have this bird as it is one of my totem animals. So now I have to ponder. What is the meaning of finding holding and then releasing a totem? Anyone want to jump in on this? I will have to research the raven/crow connection. I know in the Celtic world it can signify a new begining or an end. I believe this may be a new begining due to the young age of this very beautiful bird. Now to see what the Godess and Gods bring from this.




Symbolically, Raven is a seeker and finder of the truth. Raven gets to the bottom of things.They are fearless in their quest.Ted Andrews book Animal Speak is a good place to start your research.As much as you'd love to keep the little one, wild things are meant to stay wild.Imagine how those Raven parents would have felt if you'd kept their baby! You did the correct thing by moving it out of harm's way and releasing it;perhaps this experiencve was a test for you. It was an incredible experience nonetheless.Continue to cherish the gift of that experience.
