Feather Necklace in 925 Silver and Natural Stone

Feathers are considered messages and messengers from the Upper World. They are light, almost ineffable, and represent the ability to fly.
I remember when I read Angaangaq 's first book "Melt the Ice in Your Hearts".
Angaangaq tells of the importance that feathers have for his people (Eskimo): in fact they are often a sign of recognition of the shaman. There are different ways to receive a feather, sometimes finding it along one's path, as a gift and message from the Spirits, from the living Cosmos; other times, instead, donated by the people of the community.
This is an extremely important gift, which cannot be given or accepted lightly. This gift implies an acceptance of responsibility towards those people and the community and at the same time a recognition, as giving a feather is synonymous with recognizing the shaman in you.

I could say that the feather as a symbol of recognition of the shaman is a common feature of the various traditions.

We find feathers in different headdresses: from Native American tribal chiefs, to Aztec dancers, up to the headdresses of the Nepalese Jhakri.
As we will see later, however, feathers are not only present in headdresses, but are also inserted into various ritual objects to infuse them with greater power and protection.

When we meet a feather on our way, it could therefore indicate an important message from the subtle worlds. Maybe we're wondering about a question and we're waiting for an answer... other times the Spirits want us to know that we're not alone or that we're on the right path.

A large "collection" of feathers will represent our spiritual power, but be careful! It's not a game, you can't cheat! Today it is easy to buy feathers in shops, feathers of various kinds… these will have no value, because they did not come from spirits.

Straight or reverse

Interesting, however, is a symbolic aspect. You all know that a feather has a "forehand" and a "back", like many things it therefore has a dual aspect. Well, the feathers are a good omen when they are in the right direction, that is "straight", while a bad omen if they are "upside down".
This means that even when we use them it is important to always keep them in the correct way.

The specific meaning of feathers

As I mentioned before, each feather then has specific characteristics depending on the bird of origin, as the feathers represent that animal with its symbolic and energetic characteristics. Having the feathers of a certain bird means making an alliance and a relationship with that animal and being able to draw on its gifts.
