Description
Birds have been symbols of power and freedom throughout the ages. In many myths and legends, birds link the human world to the divine or supernatural realms that lie beyond ordinary experience.
Many stories tell of people who gain the power to understand the language of birds.
In Greek mythology, a snake licked the ears of the prophet Cassandra, who could then understand what the birds were saying.
Birds assume a variety of roles in mythology and religion. They play a central part in some creation myths and frequently appear as messengers of the deities.
They are often associated with the journey of the human soul after death. Birds also appear as tricksters and oracles. Ravens may be symbols of war, death, and misfortune, as well as mediators between humans and the supernatural.
