Some people wonder, is an owl a good omen? The answer depends on who you ask and the culture you’re living in. That’s because there are several meanings for owls, and each culture has its own significance for this beautiful creature. The owl was well regarded in ancient Greece and in Roman culture too. “In ancient Greek and Roman cultures, the owl was revered as a symbol of the goddess Athena or Diana and protector of the city of Athens, which is named for Athena,” explains Inbaal Honigman, celebrity psychic and esoteric expert. “It also represents the soul.” She explains that people often see owls when they’re indecisive about an important decision. “This happens when people are holding themselves back or hesitating on a decision.” And if you do see an owl, she says you should trust it. Kirsten adds, “They fly into our lives to help us tap into our intuition and inspire us to make decisions based on our internal guidance system rather than someone else’s.” Dreams are full of clues and information, so it’s a good idea to take time to write down your owl dream and reflect with a dream journal. “When you dream of an owl, sit down and journal everything you remember about the dream: the color of the owl, whether it made a sound, how it made you feel in that moment,” recommends Honigman. There’s a good chance that you’ll understand the message after jotting down everything you can and then reading it over, she says. “It’s likely something to do with a transition you’re going through, but when you mull over the details, the message would become clearer.” To guide you in your dream interpretation, Kristen provides specific questions that she uses to help decipher the meaning of owl: “When you see owls everywhere or they recur in your dreams repeatedly, pay attention,” says Harmon-Luber. Mello agrees that if you continually see owls, they want to get your attention. “Our spirit guides are sending messages, and they’ll keep sending you signs,” she says. When she’s not writing, she enjoys spending time in her garden, experimenting with ingredients in the kitchen, or spending time by the ocean. See her portfolio on her website.
