Hawk Totem Meaning and Medicine:

The spirit of hawk totem brings with it many different meanings. If the hawk totem animal has entered your life recently

take a moment to stop and reflect on some of the following messages:

Awareness, Perspective: Do you feel like youre moving forward in life blindly, or simply going through the

grind? If the hawk totem has recently entered your life you may need to stop and take account of your situation.

Observe the minute and fine details of your surroundings because it is likely a juicy morsel of information is hidden

in the high grass. The spirit of hawk totem represents the ability to see meaning in ordinary experiences and will

help you to become more observant. Many of the messages Hawk totem brings are about freeing yourself of

thoughts and beliefs that are limiting your spirit ability to soar above your life and gain a greater perspective. It is

this ability to soar high above to catch a glimpse of the bigger picture that allows Hawk spirit people to survive and

flourish.

Insight, Vision: Are you lacking confidence in yourself, are your bottling up

your creative ideas and going unheard? Hawk spirit is both insightful and

visionary. Stop doubting your ideas and assert yourself. Trust in your instincts and

feelings and have confidence in any bright ideas that have recently come into mind.

Initiative, Decisiveness: Are you hesitating or procrastinating about

something important in your life? Are you avoiding someone or something out

of fear? Hawk spirit totem waits patiently to strike at their prey, but when the time

comes they strike with both speed and precision. If you stand by too long, any

opportunities that have presented themselves will slip through your grasp. Take some initiative and seize the

moment!

Caution, Maneuvering: Have you become reckless and impulsive? Do you often find yourself being outthought

or outmaneuvered in life? Hawk spirit can alert us to those times when we should NOT take action because we do

not yet have all the information we need. For example, a hawk totem person is thinking about becoming involved in

a relationship, personal or business, yet they get the feeling that something is not quite right. This needs to be

heeded and Hawk spirit sent forth to gather the appropriate information to help the person make the best choice.

Trust in your spirit intuition, Hawks totem may be telling you to steer clear for very good reasons! Be patient and

fully examine the breadth of your decision making, once you have enough information Hawk totem will guide you to

implement this knowledge to your advantage and steer you towards a more favorable path.

People with Hawk Totem Spirit are

Observant

Cunning

Decisive

Visionaries

Messengers

(http://alltotems.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Hawk-Perch-Totem.jpeg)Hawk totem

people aim to initiate and lead, and may be impulsive from time to time.

One of the greatest gifts a Hawk totem person can give the world is their visions of a

better and brighter future. Visionaries are always ahead of their time and its not easy

seeing what other totem animal people are not ready to see.

If you are a Hawk spirit animal yourself, understand that this Spirit animal can give you a

special task to hold the energy of what could be, of potentials that are waiting to be

envisioned. Seek out other people who can support you in your life and never allow

others to cause you to lose sight of what is really important to you.

Hawk totem people have their own unique challenges in life. As messengers, Hawk

spirit animal must share their insight with others. Sometimes the messages may not be what the other person really

wants to hear and yet the Hawk totem feels duty bound to relay the message, no matter the consequences.

It is important however that Hawk totem people do be aware of how they are presenting the messages they receive.

They need more than many others to try and deliver the messages as gently as they can, only becoming more forceful

if their inner spirit guidance absolutely says it is needed. Sometimes simply thinking through for a time what needs to

be said can help Hawk animal people find just the right words to use that will make all the difference and in this they

should be encouraged to take their time and soar above for a while before speaking their truth.

Hawk totem people, like many who carry strong predator animal totems, may be shunned by others who sense and

fear their inner power. Others may sense that this is a person who can see straight through them and as many people

think in terms of judging things as being good or bad, they are afraid that the Hawk spirit will see who they really are

and so they strike first in an attempt to keep the Hawk animal at bay. Hawk totem needs to learn how to veil their

energy spirit somewhat, not as an attempt to deceive others but to allow people to get to know them and understand

that Hawk Spirit has no interest in judging others. Often these people have seen so much of the best and worst in life

that they find they have no need to judge.

Some Hawk spirit animal people may have a tendency, because of their vast ability to see clear through to the heart

of things, to become an arrogant totem animal symbol. This should be avoided because it keeps them earthbound

and causes interpersonal conflicts! This can start as confusion on the part of the Hawk totem person who cannot

understand why others seem less aware of the larger picture and their own issues. It is important that people with the

Hawk totem understand that others are not as well developed yet in these areas and avoid blurting out what they see

and know without thinking of how it may impact another person. (http://alltotems.com/wp-

Hawk Spirit Message:

The hawk totem is a messenger of insight, adaptability and openness, it is

also about visionary power and guardianship. Hawks spirit teaches us to

be observant and to pay attention to what we may overlook. This could

mean a talent we dont use, a blessing for which we havent expressed

gratitude, or a message from the universe. The hawk has keen eyesight, it

is about opening our eyes and seeing that which is there to guide us. Hawk

Hawk totem in Dreams:

To see a hawk in your dream, denotes that suspicions are lurking around you and your activities. You need to proceed with caution.

Alternatively, a hawk symbolizes insight. Consider the phrase hawks eye to mean that you need to keep a close watch on someone or

some situation. The key is to sense the subtle meaning carried by the winds and spirit of change.

(http://alltotems.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Hawk-Cultural-Symbolism.jpeg)Cultural Symbolism of thehawk totem:

Native American: Among Native American traditions, Hawk totem served the

role of messenger guide, bringer of spirit messages and portents of change.

Hawk spirit reminded the people they needed to be awake and aware. Many Native American tribes admire the

hawk for its speed, endurance, perseverance, and sharp eyesight.

Celtic: In the Celtic tradition Hawk totem animal empowers a person to seek out their ancestral roots and to

examine in depth that which is positive (so that it may be integrated into a persons life) and that which is limiting

(so it can be released). Tradition is only worth honoring when it supports joy and fulfillment in ones life! In this

tradition Hawk totem also supports the solar side as stated above, helping a person to move forward in life and to

seek out great quests to embark upon.

Greek: In Greco-Roman mythology, the hawk totem is the swift spirit messenger of Apollo/Mercury, and is

associated with the sorceress, Circe.

Chinese: The Chinese associated this spirit bird with war.

Christian: In early Christian animal symbolism, the wild hawk represented evil; the tamed hawk signified the

convert; and the hooded hawk symbolized the Christian hoping in the Light of Christ even though surrounded by the

darkness of earth. Because of the hawks swiftness in darting down and grasping its prey, this animal is a symbol

of death, injustice, violence, and those people who prey upon the weak.

Egyptian: In ancient Egypt, the hawk was considered a royal bird and a symbol of the soul (ba). Isis is said to have

shape shifted into a Hawk to save Osiris. Horus also carried Hawk medicine which allowed him to see the

unseeable.

Indian: Gayatri is the Hindu hawk spirit who brought an intoxicating drink of immortality known as soma from

heaven. He is also a spirit vehicle of Indra.

A hawk flew very close to me this morning in hot pursuit of its prey, and lost 2 feathers. I

picked up these feathers and meditated on them and got such a huge spiritual rush

throughout my being. Thanks for the information above, it has been very helpful.

I also saw a Bald Eagle 5 days ago. It flew over my head 3 times before it went to the

forest beyond. I live in an area where there are no eagles of any sort (Southern Ontario).

This is a highly unlikely experience, and yet I was strongly guided to go to that place

where and when the eagle flew. I guess this is a strong messageboth the eagle and the

hawk in such a short time. Would one or both would be my totem??

If neither of these spirit animals have maintained a consistent presence in your

life you may want to just meditate on how their appearance can be interpreted

in the here and now. Both of these totem animals are important messengers

and you should do your best to increase your awareness of both your internal

and external environments.

I just looked up what Hawks symbolize because constantly

everywhere I go I see one. We took a 6 hour trip the other day and

seen one like every 2 miles if not less. I see another when I take a

trip and always on the same stretch. Then yesterday when I went for

my walk/run one appeared and soared above my head, I was so in

awe of it and that they seem to be everywhere I go. What could this

mean? I have an absolutely wonderful relationship with God, could

this mean anything?

I have always been fascinated with hawks, and it seems

theyre always around especially during pivotal moments

in life. The other day, I saw a hawk on the ground in my

backyard with a woodpecker in its talons. It seemed to

look up briefly at me and then flew off with the prey. Any

I love my Hawk. I found my second hawk feather a couple of weeks ago after having a

couple of dreams about finding Hawk feathers. The first feather found was in 2010 when

Hawk kept on appearing almost every day, everywhere I happened to go and seemingly

looked directly at me. These encounters actually started 2008.

Prior to going to bed one night, I prayed to find out if Hawk is my Animal Spirit Guide.

Sure enough that evening, Hawk appeared in my dream and that following morning I

found my first feather. The third photo of this website looks exactly like my Hawk now I

know that Hawk is a red-tail Hawk I think, not 100% positive, that mine are tail

feathers. Thank You

Yesterday morning, 10/02/12, I saw a hawk land on the back of a gray squirrel on the

neighbors front lawn. it did not kill or injure the squirrel, just almost wanted a soft place to

land. The squirrel scurried off into the bushes, but the hawk stood on the lawn across the

street & stared at me for about 5 minutes. It eventually flew away. Moments later, I saw a

hawk shadow on the garage door, across the street, & went to investigate it. I also looked

for a feather it might have left me on the lawn, but no feather was left. As iI looked for the

hawk in the trees, I noticed it was very close on a telephone wire above my head. My

roommate observed all this hawk activity with me and caught a video of the hawk. This

morning I went to Alltotem.com to study the meaning of hawk. Much to my surprise, I went

outside immediately after reading the info on the website & my hawk was on the

telephone wires directly in front of our house. He then flew into a tree across the street in

another neighbors yard. This time I wanted to see if hawk would let me slowly approach

his perch in the tree. He did & I was able to get some pictures of it again today! Very

exciting & I would be interested in some feedback. Thanks, Danielle

Danielle, very interesting story. I would take particular note of the incident with

the squirrel. Squirrels represent preparedness for the future, alertness, and

often appear to alert you of some kind of danger. The fact that this squirrel was

easily attacked most likely represents a lack of spiritual awareness on your

part, and hawk bringing a major WAKE UP call. If youre being bothered or

harassed in your life another message may be to move to a higher level of

consciousness or above any difficulties in your life for a clear perspective.

My 20 year old son passed in August 2012. The car he was riding in was rear ended by a

speeding drunk driver. Yesterday I was sitting on a hill where we spread some of his

ashes talking to my son. Two crows landed in the tree next to me and began squawking.

When I looked up there was this beautiful hawk sitting in the tree. The crows gave up and

flew off and the hawk didnt move. I have been asking my son to send a sign, maybe a

hawk, each time I sit on this hill. I was thrilled to have one sitting above me. I sat for a 1/2

hour waiting for the hawk to fly off but it never did.

Chris, my deepest sympathies for your loss. The appearance of both of these

totem spirits when you asked for signs is inspiring.

A great book that is an inspiration to this site Animal Magick mentions how

crows may bring the medicine of learning from the past but not holding on to it,

and letting go of past hurts. The hawk is an important spiritual messenger to

several Native tribes, and in Celtic cultures this totem helps a person move

forward in life.

I know its been a very short time since your loss, so Id hardly advocate simply

moving forward with your life, or letting go of your son. Instead, Id reflect on the

appearance of these spirits, and be thankful that they heard your call.

I just got around to reading your reply and it is just what I needed

today. Thank you. We have Celtic roots and live within view of Effigy

Mounds in Madison WI where we spread some of our sons ashes.

We often sit at the Mounds to talk with Conor too. The other day I

walked out of our house and kept hearing this peeping noise

above. I looked up and sitting in the top of our black walnut tree was

a young hawk almost seemed to be calling to me. I look for

messages daily from Conor he was this larger than life spirit is

greatly missed. I will pick up the Animal Magick book you

recommended. Thank you again.

Been rough with the holidays and feeling Ive not had any

visits/messages in the form of a hawk etc. Though I did

see an eagle briefly last weekend at a B&B north home

which I cherished. Today as I was driving listening to a

Christmas song All I want for Christmas is You and

thinking about my son, Conor, a beautiful hawk flew low

and slow right in front of my car. Amazing! Unfortunately I

was on a semi-busy street and couldnt stop but it really

made my day. Im going to take it as my son saying

Hey, Mom, Im OK, try to stop crying. Thanks for this

Chris,

I came to this site today to look at what my

sighting of a red-tailed hawk next to a crow

meant yesterday, on the eve of this new year.

As I scrolled down to find your story, it moved

me to tears. I sit here, having just split from

my husband and moving from Chicago to Los

Angeles, looking for a hopeful sign for the

future. I found that hope in your loving positive

reflection of Conor comng to you in Hawk. If

you can bear the pain of losing a son, yet

have the strength to move forward and look

for positive signs, then so can I. I wish you

beautiful peace in 2013 and beyond.

Believe in the Mother/ Child bond. I have no

Thank you to Kim, Ava & Mo for your caring, kind words

with regards to my son, Conors, passing. Conor was

extremely affectionate, intelligent, very much a Tigger

with these Paul Newman blue eyes and a smile like a

Cheshire cat. He loved the outdoors, was also very

artistic, and quite the poet too. Since everyone said how

much he looked like his dad, I love the fact that he was

left-handed like me. Conor was an organ donor so his

great spirit lives on in others. I look for signs every day

and when I see a hawk, I know hes saying Hi its so

like him. Yesterday his dad came home from a walk on

the lake by us and said this hawk kept flying above him

we hold on dearly with each sighting. Thanks again for

the wonderful support.

5 yrs ago, my son, Colin, age 23, was killed in a car accident. He was a

passenger. This pain never goes away. Regarding hawks: about 2 weeks

after, I was sitting in the same chair where I last saw my son; it faced a large

window..all of a sudden this huge hawk crashed into it right in front of me.

The wings spanned across the entire window, made a loud noise. I opened

the front door and the hawk just stood there about 3 ft away, staring at me. It

wouldnt leave until I almost touched it. Nothing like that ever happened before

in my life. Also, about 3 days after the accident, I was standing in my garage,

and a butterfly flew in. It stayed right near me, wouldnt leave, againuntil

finally I almost touched it. Never seen a butterfly near my home before or after

that.

Alyce Im so sorry to read about your son, Colin, and I believe you

when you say the pain never goes away. It will be 6 months this

week since Conor died in that car accident the great sadness is

always there. Thank you for sharing your hawk and butterfly

encounters. Very moving/inspiring. On another note, Ive been

reading a book by George Anderson Lessons from the Light that I

have found helpful in dealing with my grief. Saw two beautiful red

tail hawks on Saturday near our house. They looked to be playing

as they swooped by. Warm regards.

My heart goes out to you, it is every parents nightmare

to lose a child and you are living that nightmare. I am so

happy that you know that these signs, whether it be

Hawk or Butterfly or a certain song or smell is a sign

from your son(s) that they are right here with you,

ALWAYS. You just cant see them, but they are right next

to you. Chris I am so happy to hear you are reading a

George Anderson book. Get your hands on every one

you can. Lessons from the Light was the first one I read,

and I have read every single other book by this wonderful

compassionate man who is blessed with such a gift. Try

and pick up a copy of his book Our Children Forever a

beautiful uplifting book filled with messages from

children on the other side. Georges books are by far the

best on life after death. I am blessed to be able to tell

you that I have not suffered the loss of a child. I pray I

never will. Remember its ok to smile through your tears,

its ok to laugh again. Your children will be standing next

to you holding your hand laughing with you. By the way,

HAWK is my spiritual strength that has brought me

through some of the lowest points in my life. I call upon

him whenever I am feeling lost, on my knees, feeling

hopeless. Without fail he appears and I feel myself gain

renewed strength and I see another glimmer of hope to

hang on to. I apologize for the length of this writing,

hopefully when I click on post I wont get a msg that says

too many characters. I wish you peace, love and

many blessings. Sandy

Sandra, Thank you for your moving post to

me, it meant a great deal. Its good to meet

another George Anderson fan too. His book

Our Children Forever is on my list to get. Im

hoping that I can find someone like George in

the Madison area. Everyday Im on the

lookout for signs/messages from Conor. He

has also talked to me many times through

songs. I have each song message added to

the journal Im keeping. Last week I had

another hawk visit Id like to share. As I was

driving home from work, I began to talk to

Conor and tearfully asked him for another

sign. It seemed like it had been awhile since I

had a message from him. I asked that maybe

he could please send another hawk. I was

slowly driving down a side street close to

home when this hawk flew in front of my car

and landed on a neighbors fence. I instantly

stopped and there was this beautiful hawk

perched on a fence 10 feet away. We just

looked at each other. The hawk then raised

its foot, almost like a wave, and then put it

back down. A minute or so later it turned its

head north and flew off. The tears really

flowed then as I thanked Conor, over and

over. It was so incredibly moving. Your

supportive words and the others Ive receive

on this site have been very touching and

greatly appreciated. Peace and blessings in

return. Chris

Hawks are symbols of guardianship and messengers to the spirit world. In

Celtic the hawk animal guide helps people examine and honor tradition when

it supports joy and fulfillment in your life. Id view their appearance at your

wedding and afterwards as a blessing!

I have noticed fewer hawks in my neighborhood this year than in the last 7 years Ive been

here. Yet, very recently Ive had two encounters that seem relevant to my life. The first was

about three weeks ago. A red-tailed hawk landed on the screened enclosure directly in

my line of vision. He/she remained there a full two minutes, at least. Then, yesterday,

while seated in the same screened enclosure and facing a different direction, I noticed

one flying from behind a neighbors garage about 10 to 12 feet above the ground and

straight for my other neighbors yard. Its appearance as such didnt seem particularized

to me and, yet, withiin a few seconds it re-entered my line of vision from the right, flew

quickly underneath a magnolia trees branches and crashed into the screen right in front

of me. It dropped into the hedge along the screen, taking a few seconds to get its footing.

Then it half hopped and flew onto a low branch on the magnolia and sat with its back

facing me for a minute. I started to walk around the swimming pool to get a look at

whether it might need help stopped and waited. Several more seconds passed, then

he hopped-flew to a couple other nearby brances and flew off in the direction from which

he came.

Id like some feedback on what the crashing part might mean if anything. Im assuming

its a message to be more awake and aware. Could the crash be construed as someting

negative or ominous?


Author



The hawks appearing twice in such a short period of time can definitely be

interpreted as an important reminder. Hawks are rarely reckless creatures, in

fact, they are extremely alert and perceptive. The fact that this hawk crashed

into a screen in front of you in a display of rare clumsiness might be a warning

to both stay alert and be very cautious! Read over the Caution, Maneuvering

section above for more details.

I see hawks every time I go out. Last week I went for a walk through the woods a hawk

flew pretty low over my head and down the path I was walking before disappearing. I was

so upset I didnt get a shot of it that it took a few days for me to realize there was a

meaning behind the low fly over so I looked it up and here I am. I will try to be more

observant and work on my talents. I believe they are being sent by my daughter to help

guide my way.

Everyday I see a hawk no matter where Im driving to, in my town or going out of town. It

flies low across my path.

Its was important for me to receive more information about hawks.

Lately I have seen 2 dead hawks on the road which I didnt understand how a hawk could

die, didnt make sense to me.

It also grieved me to see them.

There was a dead hawk in my backyard todayI think it was a sharp-shinned. It

was a small one. My mom found it and told me about it. When I went to check it

out, it also made me sad to see it, especially since I consider hawk to be a

spiritual guide for me. Also because it was so small. Its wing was wounded

somehow.

I havent been walking in a while started walking again last night and then this morning.

This morning a hawk flew low right in front of me (maybe 6-7 ft), then flew across the

street it landed on the neighbors deck then flew back toward me back to the

ground and landed on a rock about 15-20 feet away from me looking right at me then

a car came in between us.. but it flew toward me (crossing the street in front of the

vehichle) coming closer to me before it flew away.. WILD! I felt, for sure, there was some

message for me, so I looked this up here nice find.

I have been experiencing more conflict at my job (not directed to me, but my coworkers),

and after 10 years, I have started looking for other potential jobs. I really havent found

anything that really fits me, but there is one position abailable that would require a lot of

change on my part. Confused about my direction in life, and thinking about how confusing

everything was, I walked out of my office building and I saw a hawk in a tree. I have never

seen such a large bird, and it immediately caught my eyes. I walked over to the tree and

the hawk stared right at me, then it flew away in the opposite direction. I dont normally

read much into these things, but my therapist told me the next time I see an animal that

stands out, then I should look up its meaning. This is my first animal that not only stood out

to me but it stared at me. I appreciate your article, and it has definitley raised my

curiosity. I wonder, given the context I supplied, how you would interpret my hawk

experience?

Brandon, Id hardly presume to offer career advice based off your experiences

with nature, but it is important to be perceptive and considerate of the

messages that come to us in our daily lives. Its very interesting that as you

thought about switching jobs that the messenger totem hawk visited you. I

would interpret it quite literally. In a time where you are looking for signs and

meaning, hawk appeared, and flew in the opposite direction of your place of

work. Maybe its time to take a different direction?


Yvette (http://alltotems.com)


Dear Author,

I came across your site in search of hawk symbolism/meaning. About 4 months ago as I

was doing my daily lunch time walk (in a downtown area) I saw something red in the sky

that caught my eye. I thought it was a kite but it was a red hawk circling directly above me.

When I broke my fixation then a dragonfly flew by. I didnt give it much thought until now.

Since that day black hawks have been circling above me whether Im driving or walking in

random locations (almost on a daily basis). In addition the dragonflies have been flying by

me on a consistent basis. I began to think that it was hawk and dragonfly season but they

have been appearing in areas where they shouldnt be, for example industrial areas

(concrete jungles). Theyre even flyer closer so I can see the details of them. Im starting

to get scared because I dont know what this means am I going crazy?

Thanks,

Yvette


Author



Yvette, I wouldnt be concerned about being crazy. If youre having continual

experiences with dragonfly and hawk spirits Id really take some time to sit

down and meditate on the circumstances. Try to evaluate what you are

doing/feeling/thinking while having these encounters. Both of these totems

carry meaning related to perception or vision. Dragonflies often symbolize

illusion, and seeing through it. Hawk brings messages of perception. So my

first impression would be for you to examine your surroundings and your life for

any possible illusions that you maintain about the world you live in and try to

pierce them!

Yesterday I had a very scary experience. I was driving my car packed full of boxes to

bring to the new place that I will be moving into. I suddenly saw wings in front of me and

then POW! A hawk flew right into my windshield. The vehicle is brand new only two

weeks old. The glass instantly spidered and chards of glass were all over me and the

dashboard. I was stunned and did all I could to pull over and call my husband who was

driving ahead of me. The guys at the dealership said that the hawk had to be going at a

very high speed to shatter the glass as it did and they dont know how I maintained control

of the vehicle. There was one small feather on the windshield from where the hawk

impacted that I kept. I dont know of anyone who has every hit a bird of prey like this. It

was so instant and in my face. I am still in shock. Now I am worried about what this means

or if it is an omen? The place I am moving to seems wonderful. It is off the grid on 160

acres and the people I am renting from seem like really wonderful, trustworthy people. My

husband and I have not been getting along lately and our relationship has been pretty

rocky. I was thinking about him on the drive. I am afraid this is an omen or means death

but I really want this to be positive and think of this as the hawk spirit going through me. I

am not one for totem animals but I cannot help ignore the fact that without a doubt this is

some sort of sign. Do you have any insight? I am not sleeping much tonight and cannot

get the image out of my mind.

Thanks,

Christine


Christine (http://Website)



I almost forgot to mention in my post that two days prior to hitting the hawk with

my car I was on my lunch break at work sitting on a rock in the woods

overlooking a field. (I live in VT) and thinking about my marriage and what I

should do with my life, almost in tears and a hawk came soaring down out of a

tree close to me.It startled me and appeared to be watching me the whole

time.

Thanks,

Christine, Im very sorry to hear of your relationship issues and your

accident. The hawk totem is renowned for wake up calls. BAM! Pay

attention! Be perceptive or you may maneuver yourself into a bad

situation. Hawk may come to warn you, but also to show you a

favorable route, the key is to be receptive and to pay keen attention

to your surroundings!

Youd be surprised how many near misses people have with hawks

while driving, and it is not incredibly uncommon to have a collision

with one. I would encourage you to really examine your relationship.

If you put enough of your energy into evaluating the situation, a good

opportunity should present itself.

The other day I went to the supermarket with my family and an adult hawk was sitting on

our patio swing. We were going back and forth to the car emptying groceries and we did

not see the hawk because he camouflaged with the swing set. My sister noticed he was

sitting there and alerted us. We tried to get him off the swing, but he refused to leave.

Soon, our dog realized he was on the swing set and tried to attack the hawk. The hawk

quickly jumped on the nearest chair next to him, opened up his wings, and let out a cry. It

was very scary. Eventually the hawk left our patio, but put up a good fight. He really did not

want to leave. Another strange thing is that we live in an area where there are usually no

hawks.We live in an industrial area. What do you think this means?


Author



Id recommend you read over the Awareness, Perception section at the

beginning of the article. The fact that you all missed the presence of the hawk

for some time seems to suggest that the spirit guide, and his stubbornness,

was a hint to pay more attention to your surroundings. There may be

something important right in front of your faces that youre missing.

I think I have a hawk spirit guide. Every time something significant happens in my life, he

hovers around. The first time I saw him was when I turned my life over to Christ. The

second time I saw him was when I moved to Los Angeles. I dont remember why in

particular i saw him. The third time I saw him was right after my daughters funeral on

10/8/12. He hovered over my car all the way to her grave site. And the last time I saw him

was on 10/23/12. He was hovering over my house when i returned home. That day i

received a phone call pertaining some valuable information.

Im just wondering, could this red-tailed hawk really be my spirit guide? Or am I just overly

excited? He has never gotten close to me. It always hovers above.


Patty (http://www.RainbowWomanReiki.com)


Hawk is my main totem animal. Since I became Reiki I see them all the time. When we

moving from the Chicago area to Wisconsin 8 years ago, a giant red tail hawk (female)

sat the tree in the park down the street from our house where we walked our dog

everyday facing north (towards Wisconsin). it was eerie. I see them all the time especially

when I am doing something significant as kind of a way to let me know they are giving me

a thumbs up. I am absolutely shocked about the poor lady who hit one. I would definitely

say it is a sign for a hawk to sacrifice itself to give you a message is unbelievable. You

are saying your relationship is rocky

I had one fly in front of my car and stare straight at me once on a hiway and I was going

70 MPH it was like time slowed down and it was just in front of my wilnshield staring at

me!

I wish I had answers for all of you who have questions about your hawk sightings. I believe

that Spirit sends us messages using all birds. Recently a friend of mines son passed

away and a blue jay suddenly starting coming to yard and squawking sounding like

me,me,me,me all the time. I was getting messages from her son alot but I feel that this

bird is connected with her son without a doubt.


Patty (http://www.RainbowWomanReiki.com)



boy I made a lot of typos in the last comment LOL

the hawk in Illinois was in that tree every single day for weeks until we moved! I

really feel that the hawk the lady hit that shattered her window was a warning,

the fact that you were thinking about your relationship when it happened is

significant to me.

The blue jay has stayed around since my friends sons passing, I forgot to

mention that. Doreen Virtue runs a column in Womans World Magazine about

angels. Almost every other week there is a story about one bird or the other

(especially cardinals and doves) or dragonflys and butterflys that appear to

people after someone has crossed over that are signs from their loved ones

letting them know that they are safe and happy.

I started seeing hawks a little over 10 years ago when I went away to college. There was

one lone hawk that would perch outside my dorm room and seemed to follow me

wherever I went around campus. I remember distinctly I was heading from my dorm to the

student center. Ahead of me, I saw my hawk perched on a tree limb. It seemed like we

made eye contact as I passed under him. My friend looked back and said the hawk had

turned around towards me and was watching me walk away. Seeing the hawk had

become a daily occurrence. My second year of college, my grandmother passed away. I

went home for the funeral and didnt return to school for a few days. Upon my return, when

I looked out my dorm window, there were two hawks. And the two, again, no matter where

I went on campus, off campus, even when I traveled out west to Arizona, I would see my

two hawks. They were there when I graduated from college. Always around me. Two

years ago, we lost my granddad (who was more like a dad to me). A few days after I

remember being alone in my room and I heard the screech. I look out the window and this

time THREE hawks were circling above, each one soaring at a different height. For a

while I had all three follow me around. Now, theres always at least one flying overhead or

perched on a limb or somewhere in my eyesight. And they always seem to let me know

when theyre around by either swooping low enough to catch my attention, or calling out

when theyre soaring above. It may not be every day that I see them, but I know theyre

around.


Laura (http://Website)


Today I sadly saw a dead hawk in the road. I stopped and moved its body to the side so it

wouldnt be run over (it appeared to have flown into a car, its neck was broken.) I called

our state Fish and Wildlife line, and they said to just dispose of the body, so I took it home

and buried it under a tall oak tree in our east horse pasture (we live on a farm.) I did not

keep any feathers, as that is illegal.

I am hoping that Hawk Medicine will keep my family and farm a little safer now. I said a

small prayer to hawk as I buried him, saying I was sorry that he had died, and that I hope

he now flew free with Spirit. It made me sad to see such beauty stilled.

Laura good show! I would have done the same thing. I hit a hawk the other

day with my car but couldnt find him when I went back around long road, lots

of wooded banks and they do blend well. Going 60 mph, he took out my left

blinker. I prayed all the way to work that day poor thing. Its sad when such a

magnificent creature of creation dies. My bad dog killed a mink right near the

house a few years ago. He took his last breath in my hands. Wow, powerful

totem there. I never even knew they were in our area. We had been on

vacation and I had cat food on the back porch closest to the stream and

woods. I buried him and still mean to put up a small memorial. But I do feel that

he protects me and provides me with smoother changes in life since then. Its

like he gave his life for me. Something changed that day and I will forever be

grateful. Vicki


Julia (http://Website)


I believe the hawk is my spirit guide. I see red tailed hawks everyday. Sometimes they

are soaring, other times they are perched on top of street light, and some of those seem

to be watching me.

Today, there was a hawk in my front yard, at my bird bath. He looked right in the window

at me before he flew away. I feel like he had a message for me, but I dont know what it is.

Could it be about my new relationship? From reading your post, I wonder if this hawk was

telling me to be aggressive or cautious.

I was returning to work after visiting the pharmacy. I had called my doctor to inquire how to

take one of the medications prescribed, when I was told I had an irregular mammogram

reading of my right breast and I needed to schedule a diagnostic exam. The entire time I

was on the phone, there was a hawk perched on a lamp post looking at me through a

window 4 stories high. I was in the parking structure. It was an awesome sight, but then I

wondered if this may be a message regarding my health. Can you share any insight? Any

guidance is welcome and well received.

I was out in my back yard and I was shooting at targets and a young hawk just as I was

about to take a shot flew in front of my sights and landed on the roof about 10 feet away it

looked to the side and I said hello it looked as if it nodded at me then flew away. I was

wondering if there was any significance to this?

Ive been hearing and seeing hawks now for months close to all summer I believe. I hit

one the other day with the car but couldnt find him when I swung back around poor thing

I really felt bad. I would have taken him to the wildlife shelter. ll the banks look the same

on a long, long road. Reading this piece, I was comforted that I am on the right track in my

life. I see many areas surrounding what is happening with me lately thank you!

I live in a second floor condo in the middle of town. Over the weekend while cleaning I

heard a loud noise like something large had fallen. I investigated to find nothing and went

about my work. A little while later out of the corner of my eye I see a hawk on my balcony

deserately trying to get up and over the railing, but because the balcony is framed in

glass the hawk keeps trying to fly through it rather up and over. The hawk seems a bit

exhaused and actually seems to be looking at me for help. (im now wondering if the loud

bang I heard earlier was the hawk hitting the window) I took a shovel that was near by and

put it out before him. He hopped on the end.and I lifted him up and over the railing and he

was able to fly off. He circled a half circle looked right at me let out a big glorious cry

before flying away. This is the first time I have ever had a bird of any kind on my balcony

never mind a hawk. I wonder what this could mean. I would welcome any insight.

I was hit by a young buck the other night. 1 minute or so prior, I had thought to myself that I

had better slow down because it was so dark that a deer could jump out without me

seeing it. I was already breaking and was doing 40 when all of sudden he was there and

even he realized there was going to be impact. A split second before, we made eye

contact and he lowered his head for impact. We were both fine as he ran away

afterwards and there was no blood anywhere thankfully. My car wasnt fine, but that was

ok. The next day I had pulled into a parking lot and when I got out, the car next to me had

a falcon sitting on the luggage rack, I didnt think it was real but after we stared at each

other for a couple of minutes he flew away. I dont know what to think of this activity! It was

very strange, especially the falcon incident. Any thoughts?

For the last week i have been seeing all sorts of hawks while driving to work. Mostly red-

tailed hawks, but today i saw a Bald Eagle just sitting in a tree. What are they trying to tell

me??


Johnny


Im a long distance runner and during my daily jog, a Hawk flew up from behind a

concrete wall in my city neighborhood where there was a small field and construction

going on, perched itself on top and just looked around. The Hawk was very close to me

and unafraid of my presence. I came to a halt, and just stood in awe of what Im seeing

and how close this Bird of Prey was to me! The Hawk spread its wings and moved over

a bit on the wall and just looked around (3minutes total) and flew down the back side of

the wall to finish hunting, so I began to finish my run. Hawks are common here in Texas

and I see them all the time but NEVER this close.


Ginger


Author, will you or anyone else please tell me what you thinnk of this? I dreamed there

was a hawk in a tree with a large baby hawk on its back. There was a biologist there who

wanted to relocate the chicks. I advocated for waiting a couple of more weeks so that

chick could mature. In the dream, I walked right up to the hawks and was surprised they

let me. My 17 year old son is about to go to college and also just starting to drive, so I

think this is related to that. I pay close attention to birds in my awake life, but have never

felt connected to hawks. Is it a warning, or a change is good message? Thank you!


Lucilia


I love the definition of the hawk and also of the wolf. Your site is the first Ive come across

that actually makes more sense. So thank you for that. My main animal totem is the Hawk.

The first time Ive really took notice was a about 4yrs ago, I was having some issues and I

was heartbroken and I didnt know how to deal with it. I had taken my daughter to school

one morning and I was driving home and I started crying and couldnt stop. I was driving

on a rural road so hardly anyone was on the road. I guess I was going like 15miles on a

40miles zone. All of the sudden I look up in front of me is a hawk, slowing flying on top of

me. I stopped crying and just smiled, I was filled with calm and peace. She was guiding

me home. From then on anytime Im feeling sad or something isnt going right, she shows

up to let me know that everything is going to be ok. Im right here to guide you home

always Ill alwys be by your side. I used to live in Colorado and Im from Arizona. So

anytime I drove back to AZ there would be at least 5 black hawks that would fly home with

me. It is awesome. My main hawk is the red-tail hawk, she just showed up again (she

knew I needed her medicine) here in the city just recently and I love them dearly. They

even helped me find a new place to live. Im so grateful for thier guidance. Thank you for

letting me share.

Hello first thank u for taking the time to help us all understand what the hawk represents in

out life. Ive lived in California for 3 1/2 yrs now. About 1 1/2 ago I was sitting at the park by

my house in deep thought and confusion and this hawk landed above my head on a street

light and stared at me for a long period of time I knew that it was a powerful sign but didnt

know what.. I would go running in the morning sometime and I would see it glide above

me. One afternoon I went to a open field to just clear my thoughts and I saw a hawk

allowing the wind to guide it. The hawk just glided in the air for about 20 -30 mins in the

same area. It was amazing. last month I saw a hawk glide across the highway when I was

getting off an exit the hawk glided really close to my car. Every so often when I walk out to

my car I see the hawk in front of me on the street light across the street.. Today when I

was leaving to work my neighbor was outside and said to me that hawk has been sitting

on the street sign and facing us directly. I laughed and told her it was my guardian angel A

while back ago I was meditating and I saw a vision of human like guardian warriors

morphing into hawks and eagles.. I was in need of clarity and went on a jog and a little

bird flew across about 10 inches above me. I have a co-worker that said that when a bird

is not afraid to fly near you its because you have a good or pure spirit. Am I going

crazy???

You are going sane, keep paying attention to the raptors. And what else would

you do with someone who keeps trying to be your friend, except say Hi to them

if you appreciate and enjoy their company?

Remember, Hawk can see. You can make subtle finger motions to gently say

hi without sending too much power out of the center of your palm, and startle it

away.

The outward expressions of our thoughts and feelings are only the means of

communications, the actual words are inside. This is how man speaks with

flora and fauna. Focus on whatever you wish to communicate with your hawk,

then make a subtle finger, hand, face, ot head motion.

Hawk sees, he will understand your intent.

From there, learn his silent language of wings. Remember, he is a prince and

a king in the sky.


CJ (http://Google-allotems.com)


Over the past few years Ive had multiple strange encounters with hawks. It all started with

a pair of hawks that lived in my yard (bordering on woods). They hung out on the elctrical

wires and on one occasion one of them flew to three different windows in my house,

following me from room to room. He hovered at each window for a while and then flew off.

It was really exciting for me, as I had really come to enjoy watching them around my yard.

After some months they disappeared and I miss seeing them outside.

Since then, while running Ive been attacked by a hawk on three occasionsliterally

buzzing (hitting) my head, swooping and coming back to buzz me multiple times so that I

ran for cover, and on one occasion someone ran to assist me.

What do I make of this?

The white owl and red hawk are brothers. You may not have caused

the death of owl but you are responsible for restoring the balancing.

White Owl asks this of you Red Hawk demands this of you.

This will remain with you the rest of your days until you make peace

with your totem and build a home for White Olw to return to then

Red Hawk will mind your personal space again.


Anom



Build an owl box high in your neighborhood. A barn owl will move in and

balance your hawks.

These hawks are asking for your help to heal their local land. You are not

paying attention and you frustrate your hawk tutors.

Remember, you talked to them first, you asked them a question. This is their

answer. Would you try to change such an ancient spirit?

Let your birds fly, share your sky. Oh, and people like to be treated better like

this too.

Those windows work both ways and are natures opportunity to safely look at

you. Remember the birds and the bees. If you see more than two, there must

be a nest nearby. They want to make sure that you will not disturb their young.

I would pay attention and assure them that you are at peace and will cause

them no harm inside your spirit.


Martina


I was driving on I95 South Maryland with my Children when suddendly I saw a hawk flying

towards my vehicle. I thought okay birds of the air, it will fly away. Instead, the hawk hit the

side mirror of my vehicle. My side mirror closed and bread and the outer cover of the side

mirror fell off. The hawk was dead by the road side. I do not undersatand the meaning of

this.

Thank you.


Anom



Any time a raptor throws itself to abandon in front of a person, the spirit of the

bird fathers are asking you to slow down in life and remember that all death is

avoidable in the spiritual sky.

You were chosen to help that one hawk transition, do this in your night dreams.

Beyond that this is your wake up call to talk with your children about death,

spirit, immortality, and loving charity.

All is balanced, build an owl box high in a tree. White Owl will move in during

the night and call his brother Red Hawk to live again during the day.


Anom



Never assume anything about the sky. You have a duty to life to

watch out for the weaker spirits like the hawk. You must give the

bird a clear sky to fly in or it will only end up colliding with this hard

temporal world.


Martina

weeping at the hospital over the death of a man she calaim was close to me. Though she

could not see the face of the dead man. Remember my encounter with the hawk was on

the 15th of December, 2012.Please help me. ThanksMartina


Anom



Understand the immortality of Spirit. Your totem is reminding you of what you

posses, fantastic perception -hawk eye, if only you would liven up yourself and

look around. Take your time in the real world or all you will see is death.

Remember, if you were driving cautious and looking out for others, would you

have breaked for the hawk?

How did your child get to the pool? Where were your strong eyes? You have

strong hawk eyes, strong hawk Heart. Use them to see more, know more,

preserve more. Its ok, you are ok sister.

I know that you see how that hawk is still with you in spiritual form,

the Great Sky Father has allowed this one hawk to sacrifice itself

on your path to show you how all of your loved ones still live on

spiritualy after experiencing temporal death.

See the hawk spirit in your minds eye, see your beloved dead. See

how neither the hawk or your beloved dead hold any bitterness

towards you because of their present state of being. See their

peace, forgiveness, love, and charity.

See that They chose this destination, to help you on your eternal

spiritual path. You did not choose their fate and not have prevented

any of their deaths. They chose to die in your sight, so that you may

see life from here on, and choose life eternally.

Today at dawn I was in bed playing lazy and pretending to stay in bed for a while while a

loud screech in my window called me. It was very automatic so I didnt realise it was an

animal but someone calling me. So I go to the 27th floor window and open it and the

hawk stopped crying and flew towards the sun. I started my prayers afterwards. It is funny

because a lot of changes and challenges are ahead changing country and job.

I saw the saddest thing today. I was riding with my friend and we were chatting and

laughing. I hadnt seen her for awhile and bumped into her at the store. It was an amazing

coincidence because toI needed a ride home and poof there she was. She made a

wrong turn and I mentioned it and we laughed.

We drove a little ways to find a turn around spot and I saw a hawk flying down toward the

road then back up to the sky. It did this several times. All conversation stopped as I was

distracted wondering what was that about. We came over a rise in the road and another

hawk was dead in the road. I got goosebumps and asked my friend to be careful not to hit

it. The silence brought about by that sight was powerful and I felt so sad for that hawk in

the road. The feeling that Id been delivered a message or saw an omen was also

powerful.

As I thought about what could that mean I realized that I had been seing a lot of hawks

lately. Earlier in the week I went out on to the porch to have my morning tea and smoke

one flew by and landed in the trees about 50 feet away. Ive seen him sitting in the trees

several times since then. I have 2 big dogs who run free and another guest dog who is

also large and that hawk just sat there in the tree while the dogs ran all around on more

than one occasion. Also earlier in the week I saw another dead hawk in the road.

I read through your site and found some insite- I wonder if you could offer some additional

wisdom?

Thanks!!

More than one dead means your neighborhood needs to be strengthened.

Build an owl box so Red Hawks brother White Owl may come and restore

order to the night. Then the land will be strong for the Red Hawk in the day.

We are stewards, husbands, and helpers of the land. These two deaths are

your first assignment from the sky.

Hi. I would like some insight on the Hawk and Eagle. Nearly everywhere I go or lived, I

see these birds. I have lived in about 8 different US States and there was the bird(s). I

pray often and I feel as though I have a strong connection with the Lord, and God. I do mt

best to try to practice my christianity. Does this mean anything. Other people I know have

made comments on this because it has become increasingly obvious to even them. Can

anyone offer me some insight/ meaning to this significance. I appreciate your response.

ALso the other day I watched a hawk in my backyard land on a bird fly away with it and a

few hours later I say a dead bird half eaten in a different spot where the Hawk caught it.

Can anyone tell me what this means? Thank You

A true priest is also a falconer, watching the raptors not just all birds. Read

everything in your Bible about birds. You will understand the answer you seek.

Some birds are clean, some are unclean by nature. Why? Yes, your hawks

and eagles you see are the same raptors God spoke of when he said,

Wherever there is a carcass, there the raptors will be gathered. And also,

Why look you for the living amongst the dead?

Hello

I am pregnant and due ANY minute now. I was driving north and came to a RR tracks

where I was stopped at a red light. I looked to my right and saw a Hawk flying but was

paused in mid air by flapping its wings ( I hope you can understand what Im describing).

All of a sudden it dove down into the grass field and then dipped back and looked

straight at me. When it dipped back up it perched itself on the tree, looked at me then

looked south. I was hoping you would be able to help interpret this for me.

Thank you kindy

When I was 16 my husband (yes married at 16) found a Hawk with a broken leg, now this

is 29 years ago..anyway he brought it home. He got a big cage and we were nursing

her/him to health. I never liked the idea of keeping the Hawk. Anyway the Hawk would sit

on our hand, shoulder..etc. I have dreams that actually come true, a lot. This was more of

a knowing as I awoke..I told my husband that the Hawk was dead..he said I was crazy..I

said it is dead lets go see..sure enough the Hawk was dead. Prior to this I had seen

Hawks everywhere as a child and I mean everywhereanyway..I do believe that night the

Hawk had spoken to me in my dream. I have always felt a connection since then, and

never knew a thing about spirit animals.

I had a very sad experience today. The hawk has come to me many times in my life. I

have always felt that it was providing me a message. Where I live I have hawks visit me.

They however seem to come when it appears to be a message or a feeling of protection.

Today when I returned home I puled into my garage and put the door down. I was

unloading groceries and I heard a large crash off what sounded to be the garage door. I

was at first startled and worried it might be something or someone. I then went outside to

see what it was and found a beautiful hawk laying in my driveway and there was blood. I

was not sure at first if he was dead or not so I wrapped him in a towel and brought him

into the garage. I then realized he was gone. I am so sad. I have a great love for animals

and especially birds and most of all Hawks. I rescue exotic birds and I have always been

drawn to Hawks and Crows. I treasure them and believe they are messengers. Please

help me understand why this has happened. I have thanked him and blessed him, but I

am so torn on the meaning of his death. It seems so weird and out of this world that he

would have even flown into the garage. What message was he telling me?

He is telling you to see beyond the veil of death and into the spiritual. He has

asked to to help him transition from this life, he will in return help you see the

spiritual by showing himself to you in his spiritual form while you rest, meditate,

or dream.

He is reminding you that death is never the end

I rescued a huge hawk from the middle of a busy intersection, her wing was seriously

injured. I had to put my hazard lights on, jump out there & rescue her. I couldnt just watch

her get hit by another car. After about 10 min of the hawk defending itself, i was finally

able to put her in my car. I drove with the hawk about 5 miles to an emergency animal

hospital. She just sat there and looked at me the whole time. I made it just in time to save

her. She was very vicious at first, but somebody had to step up & save the beautiful hawk,

or just ignore the issue at hand & wait for the worse to happen. What does this mean?.

The hawk is your Earth, it is ancient spirit of the sky. You said it yourself,

somebody had to

You are that somebody, applaud yoirself and stay the path of nurture and care.

You did the right thin
