The Story

Owls symbolize inner wisdom, change, transformation, intuitive development, good luck, and self-actualization.

The owl crossing your path is a sign that it's time to take a leap of faith. Change can be difficult and scary for anyone, but the owl is confident, strong, and resourceful—representing learning and wisdom.

Their ability to see in the darkness can be seen as a metaphor in the idea of seeing past illusions and deceptions. And in that sense, where the owl can see what others are not able, this is the heart of true wisdom.
