Summary

Exploring the magic and folklore of feathered beings of both air and water.

A fallen white feather that speaks of a loved one. Two magpies promising joy. The haunting call of an owl in the deep night, hinting at dark omens. For centuries, we’ve looked to the birds of air and water for answers in the form of divination, folklore, superstition, and legend. In this book, The Magic of Birds, you’ll discover the supernatural side of songbirds like the robin, waterfowl like ducks and swans, and more well-known magical creatures like ravens and crows. With beautiful illustrations by Kay Savage, this book gently introduces the reader to the magical world of birds, in modern Paganism, ancient myth, and even local beliefs. Learn how to integrate bird magic into your spiritual practice, what certain birds in your dreams might mean, and even hold a seasonal ritual that honours our feathered cousins. Step into a wondrous realm that connects Earth, Sea, and Sky via the marvels of birds - and expands the horizons of the meaning of magic.
