The meaning of swan feathers and their origin

The most famous people to use feathers as symbols were the Native Americans. For example, after showing courage, they gave each other eagle feathers.

The Native Americans also used the feathers as a sign to indicate events. They did this with eagle feathers, swan feathers and signs of other animals. They also called these "totem animals". The characteristics of totem animals each represented a specific message. The Indians tried to derive something from it, like advice or a future.

Swans are graceful to see. The swan is a worldwide symbol of love and determination. A swan's feathers symbolize the future, cherish, dream, elegance, beauty and divine inspiration.

Swan feathers and smearing

If you feel inspired by Indian rituals like "smudging", these feathers will suit you well. Smearing means burning herbs to contact the spiritual world. The Indians do this to dispel bad spirits and negative energy. In this way they clean themselves and their environment.

By fanning with this feather during your own pollution ritual, you spread the smoke throughout the room. This way your house will be properly cleaned. The mark of an animal also reinforces the idea behind "smearing".

Give swan feathers

Due to their importance and beautiful appearance, these swan feathers make an original gift. Any lover of spirituality and nature will appreciate them. Pack the feathers well and give them away incense , herbs or a personal letter.
