Hawk Symbolism

   Wed, October 25, 2012 - 3:56 PM

Part of the Role for the two-legged beside whom Red Tailed Hawk flies is that of Guardian of the Earth Mother. These are individuals who will possess an astute awareness of the concept of the interconnectedness of all things, and will have an inner reverence for all life. 

These are the souls that are involved in making the world a better place, whether locally or globally. They will be protectors of the Earth Mother and tread softly upon her, encouraging and educating ~Others~ to do the same. 

Often, they are either found initiating or actively involved in environmental causes, where their keen perception and insight will serve their chosen ~cause~ well. Yet it is their day to day existence and fundamental philosophy/foundation of action and belief, that distinguishes these individuals as true champions of Mother Earth as they seek to live in harmony with the ~Ina Maka~ and all that She births, provides, nurtures and sustains.

I decided to look up the symbolism of the red tailed hawk after about two months of coming across them while biking. I've seen them about ten times now, one of which had torn a rabbit in half and was sitting in our front yard. At that point I felt it was more than pure coincidence and had to figure out what it meant...so there it is.

Just updating this post with a little more hawk symbolism after writing "Complacency" earlier today. 


The red tail of the hawk only appears when the bird reaches maturity. When looking to the human beside whom Red Hawk flies, this is quite significant, for it indicates that the Red Feathers are not easily given, and must instead be earned over time. Hence, the symbolism of the Red Tail Feathers emerging only with age and experience. 

For the two-legged with this Animal Totem, this indicates the need to approach spiritual awakening in a gradual, careful and conscious manner. 

Yet once this fundamental energy unfurls as the Red Tail Feathers emerge, the beauty and depth of Spirit that shines brilliantly forth, will be both inspiration and guidance for Others who may be just beginning, or in the process of, their own awakening. 

Be ever alert for a red tail flying near, for the Red Tailed Hawk will soar beside the Two-Legged whose own gift of vision is exceptionally acute. 

To accept this Totem, is to be knighted as a Guardian and Protector of the Earth Mother and all her Children. These are individuals who will possess an astute awareness of the interconnectedness of all things, and will have an inner reverence for all life. 

These are the souls that are involved in making the world a better place. They will be protectors of the Earth, 
encouraging and educating Others to do the same.

I Got Me A Rainbow, Just After a Storm over Branson MO

Amazing rainbow seen over Branson MO just days after a deadly tornado rips through Joplin.
The flowers are for my girlfriend, Laura Fifield.
