Owl Medicine Wisdom – the owl is a sacred animal totem within many cultures. A vision of awesomeness!
Owl has naturally evolved to be a top predator yet remains under threat as I write this. Since 2016 I have facilitated an exclusive Owl Medicine Wisdom Shamanic Workshop. This is made possible by The Owls Next Door (quite literally) who come to join us on the workshop.

Owl Medicine Wisdom Shamanic Workshop
So far this shamanic workshop has been held at my home in Derby, Swadlincote and Leicester. I cannot even begin to tell you what an amazing job Lynne and Tony do at looking after the many owls and parrots they’ve rescued. Most of the owls they look after were once kept as pets and their owners could no longer look after them. They also have wild owls that have been in an accident and would no longer survive in the wild. A percentage of the workshop fee is given to the sanctuary and we raise funds on a monthly basis with reiki shares and other events. Feathers are also available to buy for a donation, and which can be used for sacred crafts or healing tools.

Owl Medicine Wisdom Workshop
My owl medicine wisdom workshop describes the power of animal spirit guides and how we can work with their “medicine” for healing. In this workshop I specifically focus on the owl who brings us many gifts such as Wisdom and enhanced Intuition. The owl is a symbol of lunar energy, the feminine aspect and is therefore a strong totem to work with on specific moon cycles. Owls were once seen as harbingers of death and there were many superstitions about them. The barns owl’s ghostly face would portend a death in the family. Owls are certainly looked on more favourably in modern times but the barn owl in particular in the UK, is dramatically declining due to habitat loss.

Goddess Athena – Goddess of Wisdom
The owl medicine wisdom workshop includes a beautiful meditation with the Goddess Athena, goddess of wisdom whose symbol was an owl. Followed by a healing exercise where everyone chooses an owl feather as their healing tool to use on themselves and others. We also make an owl essence to use for energy healing. We practise the shamanic energy healing technique with a partner and everyone receives healing. Then the really fun part – a personal owl medicine wisdom experience!
Please note these owls are allowed to be touched as they are not used in flying demonstrations.

Healing Fear
Everyone enjoys the experience with the owls, people who come with fear of owls leave feeling much lighter and happy to have held and stroked an owl. The workshops are relaxed and comfortable with little time pressure, and students leave with a much deeper understanding of the medicine owl spirit offers us. In 2017 an article about the workshop was published in Spirit & Destiny Magazine.
