Meaning: The Owl is associated with the souls of ancestors and are viewed with high respect.They symbolize wisdom, intuition and prophecies and sacred knowledge.  

Legend:The story goes that children have to be kept inside at night and are told not to cry too much because otherwise the owl may carry them away. Also, the bony circles around an owl's eyes are said to be made up by ghosts. Sometimes owls are said to carry messages from the ancestors or deliver supernatural warnings to people. On the Northwest Coast, the owl is often used as a totem pole crest. It's also very often part of dances among the tribal dance traditions. Hearing owls hooting is considered a very special omen.
