Year of the Owl

MFR 2021 Dragyn Logo. A long and thin dragon in the shape of the venus symbol.

Owl Inspiration

Owl power brings us strength to
face shadows
find wisdom in silence
seek truth
During the past two years of the pandemic, we were isolated.  We learned to rely on technology to continue working, or we worked front lines with sickness, fear, and anxiety.  We were dependent on social media to keep us connected to entertainment and community.
We learned our strengths and weaknesses because we were forced to face them in our isolation.
It has been grueling, enlightening, and challenging.
We need the strength of this being and we call to the spirit of Owl Power for our gathering in 2022.
​​​
In Native American tradition, Owl represents sacred knOwledge . 
Overall, Owl is a symbol of being able to navigate any darkness in our life; this Spirit brings clarity, intuitive strength, and a strong connection with the mystical world.
​​
Owls are the companion of Goddess Athena.  Goddess Athena invokes wisdom and strategy so her Owls were perfect companions.  Owls are protectors.  An owl sighting during a battle is a sign of an upcoming victory.

We invoke the Owl Power of Athena, solely and collectively, to help us navigate our inner and outer strengths, to listen to our intuition, to trust our power, and to protect ourselves and each other, during these trying times.

We invoke Owl Power when we leave our gathering, bringing her spirit to our lives in the world, embracing our ability to maintain strength and magic while isolated and holding to our community power. 

We invoke the element of Air to bring us together, flying from near & far, with strength, commitment, and love.
