Key note: Visionary power and Gaurdianship.
Cycle of Power: Year Round
We all heard the saying "He has the eyes of a hawk". This expression talks of people who never miss a thing. They see everything. The hawk and its night time equivilant, the owl have the best eyesight of all raptors. Raptors are birds of prey. Hawks are messangers, protectors and visionaries of the air. Hawks live in many differant environments. The environment that your hawk is from will help determine its role in your life. Or if your hawk is seen outside its usual environment. When out side the lessons usually involve some sort of adaptation for you to learn. Some hawks live in marsh lands. The marsh lands usually symbolize the underworld and places of testing. This place is where you would meet "Terrible Brother" tough guides that help you on your path. Here is where the marsh lands are simular to cave because the cave is the origine of " Terrible Brother". Some hawks live in the forests. Like all animals the hawk has many environments in which they live. There are many verieties of hawks. People have trouble identifying each species of hawk but they can look at the bird and say that it is a hawk.
The male and the female hawk of the same species usually have simular coloration. The female is the larger because she gaurds the nest. Many hawks mate for life. The red tailed hawk is an example of a hawk that mates for life. Even though the female red tailed hawk gaurds the nest, the male does actively help raise the young. The male gets the food for the family. When the female sounds the alarm, it is the male who will chase away the threat while the female stays planted next to her chicks as a last defense. The male will valently fight any threats away doing spectacular flight stunts to fend them off. Here is the day shift Anakin in action.
The red tailed hawk is named for its feathers since they have a red tail. If you get this as a life totem when red tailed appears your Kundalini will awaken or recently has awakened.The Kundalini is at the base of the spine or coccyx. The red tail is symbolic of the awakening of this chaukra. This is the seat of the primal life force.
Red tailed hawk is part of a group of soaring hawks. This means you have the ability to soar effertlessly. This soaring is not always appreciated by others. The red tailed is sometimes harrassed by smaller birds, the most guilty being the mocking bird. The fact that smaller birds harrass the red tailed is significant because it does show that people who are smaller in stature spiritually might interfere with your ability to soar. These people do not understand your varied use of your abilities and creative juices and how you express them. If this is your totem, you may feel like Anakin with his many talents that no one appreciates. This can cause great anger if the society you live in never allows you to soar as is natural to this hawk and the people who have this totem.
Red tailed hawk is a perminant totem because it usually stays in its area year round. Red tailed usually does not migrate but it has migrated on occaisions.
