Owl medicine is related symbol…

Owl medicine includes wisdom, caution, secrecy, silent and swift movement, seeing behind masks, seeing what is really beneath the surface, keen eyesight, messenger of secrets and omens, shapeshifting. the link between the dark and invisible world and the world of light. Comfort with the shadow of self, moon magic, freedom, deception, clairvoyance, perception, vision, omens, the owl symbolizes the feminine, the moon and the night

The owl symbolizes the feminine, the moon and the night. They are the bird of magic and darkness, prophecy and wisdom. The owl is linked to Athena. The owl is also known as the night eagle, a messenger of darkness and a guide through all the mysteries it contains. They are nocturnal hunters and therefore have the ability to see what others might miss. The owl will give you the gift of seeing what's really under the surface and not being fooled by appearances.

The owl is sometimes also called the cat with wings. These two creatures are linked to magic, heightened senses, intuition, and wisdom more than any other creature. Like the cat, the owl has aud hearing and eyesight in the nocturnal world – a place many fear. This fear can also make us uncomfortable around nocturnal creatures. The reason for this discomfort is because the night is dark and symbolic of the unknown – that which we cannot or do not want to see.

Humans are able to block out what we don't want to remember or deal with, for example, memories with negative emotions attached to them, traumas and accidents, etc. We deny that about ourselves that we don't wish to see. When dreaming, sometimes our unconscious mind becomes conscious. However, again these dreams are forgotten on purpose. Hiding from ourselves, our feelings, emotions and thoughts means we are being deceitful – to ourselves. If the owl has found you – it has the ability to unmask and see what is really under the surface. They pierce the illusion. On the other hand, perhaps you have the ability to pierce through illusions and see what is really going on behind the scenes, see what is going on in the darkness of others' souls. Maybe you've noticed that people are a little uncomfortable around you. Use this gift with care and compassion. It would be good for this gift to develop in all humans, as the owl teaches us to look into the darkest parts of our soul and learn from that darkness.

There are about 135 species of owl, 17 of which are found in North America. They come in all sizes, from the tiny miniature that lives inside the cactus in the desert, to the great horned owl – the only bird able to outfly the golden eagle. Seeing a great horned owl is awe-inspiring. They have furry claws that resemble the paws of a baby mountain lion with claws extended. Being meat eaters means they are a force to be reckoned with if challenged, or if something dear to them is threatened. Their large, forward-facing eyes give them a wise appearance. They have a greater range of motion in the neck than any other animal with a backbone. Owls turn their heads, not their eyes, which are still.

The owl is fully aware of its surroundings. Its night vision is so powerful that it can see prey when the light is the same as a lit candle 2,500 meters away. Their extremely soft and thick wings let them fly silently to attack their prey. Its ability to move unnoticed teaches us how to do the same. In addition to their near-supernatural eyesight, they have supernatural aud .

Its secretive ways, silent flight, and distinctive calls such as hissing, shrill screeching, and hooting have made the owl a symbol of superstition and even fear in some parts of the world. Some native tribes consider owls a symbol of death, while others believe they represent the mysteries of shamanism and witchcraft. Owls are sometimes believed to visit those about to die. It doesn't mean a physical death so much as it means letting go of a part of you that no longer serves you. With its spectral senses, the owl helps guide us through the dark tunnels of fear, change and not knowing the light on the other side.

Owls are often complex people and don't like others to know what they are really thinking. This can sometimes cause misinterpretations, especially in personal relationships. Owl people also often have clairvoyant and psychic abilities. People born with this power animal have chosen a path that involves developing these gifts in order to help others, and they make excellent therapists, psychologists and counselors.

Flutes are simple and powerful instruments, they are directly related to the vital movement of breathing, the exchange of energy through the breath that carries life, sound and allows expressing the unspeakable. Music, in particular melody, is nothing less than a range of vibrations interacting and relating, with the flute being one of the most suitable musical instruments for initiation into the universe of melodic relationships and combinations.

Breathing is the manifestation of life, the only thing we need to do in the first instance to stay alive is to breathe, and our respiratory system is both involuntary and voluntary, it is possible to exert some control over it, so the act of blowing and producing sound is very magical because it is a creative act, it is movement; life!

The native flute has elements that favor musical awakening, that is, our innate ability to make music, and helps to deconstruct the idea that only people with natural talent for music can make it.

In principle, every flute created by original peoples is considered a native flute, in the Americas, we have many native flutes, Brazil is rich in this sense, because many native peoples have their flutes. However, here we use the term “Native Flute” or Native American Style Flute, as a reference to a specific style of flute, developed in North America, whose current characteristics were only standardized in the second half of the twentieth century. Its main characteristic that differentiates it from other native Amerindian flutes is the fact that it has two chambers (slow chamber and sound chamber) whose air passage from one to the other happens through a block on a table creating a tunnel for the bezel (whistle/chimney). This characteristic offers a smooth and sensitive sound to breath variations, in addition to facilitating the production of sounds.

What definitely marked the Native American flute, with an unmistakable musical style, was the standardization of the minor pentatonic scale. This mysterious scale, which takes us back to deep emotions and nature, was already used by other very ancient peoples. The minor pentatonic scale was incorporated into the native flute with a combination of elements that reason can hardly explain, what we do know is that this marriage combined in such a way that today, the native flute has become a symbol of ancestral redemption, of connection with nature and the path “back home”. What we can say is that words will not be enough to explain what you will feel when you play your native flute. I felt magic and beauty, vibrate peace and love in the universe; our mission is to share this magic with you.

The main advantage of the native flute is that it is an instrument that can be mastered quickly, which facilitates musical initiation for people who have never played an instrument, creating the possibility of rescuing their musicality, acting as a powerful ally in meditative, breathing and therapeutic practices. In a few minutes playing the flute you will realize its magical effects.

Our flutes are handmade creations crafted one by one with a lot of love. We take care of the bamboos from harvesting, preparation and drying for months. It is a slow and careful process. Cad flute that is born has its unique personality. The photos of the flutes are references for you to choose and order your new flute. Due to the wide variety of models and customization possibilities, we require a lead time for delivery:

“Flute Time”.

To create a flute, there is an alchemical consciousness working in the invisible through 4 elements, the craftsman is an interpreter of the process, and when he is integrated into the natural flow of the raw material and participates in cad stage of gestation, he develops the subtle art of knowing the that cad bamboo will be like a flute. The craftsman's intent is shaped by the form and nature of the material. The latent flute awaits the presence of the Being, to manifest what it is from the beginning!

If you are looking for an instrument of power and vibrational healing, this is our mission, and time is a value in favor, necessary for the manifestation of an instrument with Soul.

Last Hole Alignment

The choice of alignment of the last hole will depend on the size of the flute and which hand is used below to close the last three holes. The vast majority of people play with the right hand below, in this case, for large flutes, we recommend that the last hole be aligned to the Right, as a way of facilitating the typing of this last note on the flute without causing discomfort to the ring finger of the right hand, this way it is easier to close the holes. For quena flutes, there is no need for the last hole to be on the right, in this case it can be the Standard alignment, in the center, because as the flute has a small size there will be no difficulties in plugging the flute holes. Remembering that to know the approximate length of cad flute according to the tuning, just consult our Size Chart. In the case of medium sized flutes, for people with small arms, hands or fingers, we recommend ordering the last hole on the right, this way it is guaranteed that there will be no difficulties in fingering the flute.

Wooden mouthpiece or natural bamboo mouthpiece?

The choice of wood mouthpiece or natural bamboo mouthpiece does not influence the sound quality because the sound quality is related to the whistle of the flute and the block or totem. The air chamber, which is where we blow, serves only to drive the air under the block or totem and direct that air to the whistle. The wooden mouthpiece has the advantage of giving a different finish, more aesthetic and also more ergonomic because you just need to lightly touch the mouthpiece, without having to open your mouth, just enough to cover the quena area of the mouthpiece and blow. The bamboo flute with the natural open mouthpiece does not have the aesthetics of the wooden mouthpiece, but the sound quality is the same. The advantage of an open mouthpiece is that you can dry it off easily when you've just played, and in the long run this makes a difference. This is the great advantage compared to the wooden nozzle because with the wooden nozzle, the entrance is quena and it is very difficult to introduce any artifact to clean it. With the open mouth of the bamboo it is possible to carry out this maintenance by drying with a flannel and also removing dust with a brush. So basically that's the difference between the wooden mouthpiece and the natural bamboo mouthpiece, it doesn't influence the sound quality. While the wooden mouthpiece has an aesthetic and ergonomic quality, the natural bamboo mouthpiece has an instrument-keeping quality.
