Deftones – Diamond Eyes Lyrics | 14 years ago |
http://www.crossroad.to/Books/symbols1.html Cherokee [Indian] shamans viewed Eastern Screech-Owls as consultants on punishment and sickness. The Cree believed that the whistle-sounds of the Boreal Owl was a summoning call to the spirit world. This would make sense with chi's accident, not so much the punishment part but the sickness. also to add to what asllove said "cultures believe bird to be messengers between earthly creatures and spirit." Maybe the owl signifies a way of still being able to connecting with chi, chi's spirit, on a new level because the earthly ways of communication are not possible for the time being. |
