Feather

Many witches like to collect feathers they find on the ground or from their own pets. I have many feathers, some are from wild birds, some i have bought, some from my chickens. it helps to connect to nature. Feathers are magically ruled by the element of air, which is the realm of thought and intellect, which is the first step toward creation. this makes feathers good helpers in communication. But each feather can also hold other specific correspondences, relating to factors such as the bird it came from, its color, the place and how it was discovered. Bird feathers are symbols of the wind, the divine, Flight, the mind and new opportunities, travel, speed or swiftness, wisdom, communication, spirituality and spiritual powers. also finding a feather can be a sign the connection to Gods or Goddesses. Finding bird feathers can be seen as a reflection of reaching new levels of consciousness or Change. It is always good magic to collect feathers. (i personally have tons of feathers that i have collected, however some feathers are illegal to own, so make sure you know what you are picking up).
