Color of the day: Blue
Incense of the day: Pine May 10 begins Bird Week in Japan. Many people bird-watch and build new habitats for birds, while others practice a system of divination using the sighting of birds or bird-calls. One way to perform this divination is to cast your magical circle outdoors. If you sight birds in the east, the matter concerns knowledge, new ventures, or communication. If you sight birds in the south, the matter concerns change, passion, or inspiration. In the west, the portent has to do with relationships or your emotions regarding an issue. Birds sighted in the north pertain to health, money matters, or property. As to the bird sighted, the following is a brief summary of what a bird symbolizes: a rooster means good fortune; wrens symbolize happiness; crows can mean change; doves portend love and peace; ducks represent union and beauty; eagles and hawks symbolize authority; geese symbolize inspiration or love; hummingbirds represent joy; jays represent trickster energies; owls symbolize wisdom or death; robins represent resurrection. |
