They are winged travelers transcending earth with feathered wings into the heavens. For the Celts they are soul-carriers between the worlds, connected with birth and death – we still have an association with the bird carrying the new baby to us today. Welsh Goddess Rhiannon Great Queen was accompanied by totem birds who brought magical music from the Otherworld. Their songs could “awaken the dead and lull the living to sleep”. Herons, Cranes, Storks, Pelicans are related to the Gods and Goddesses that preside over the mysteries of reincarnation, acting as guides to the Underworld. Mystical Birds live within the branches of the Tree of Life, eating the Fruits of Knowledge. They sing their songs of wisdom within the heart of the Tree – they carry the prayers of the earth: the Song of the Trees.All artwork and text ©Jen Delyth 2015 READ MORE
