As in North America and on other continents believe that the owl has great healing power. Because of the symbolic connection with the moon, this bird is associated with fertility and temptation of moonlight calls the owl on the hunt and awakens in men the desire. The owl is the bird of magic and darkness, lady of the gift of prophecy and wisdom.
The ancient Greeks the owl was a sacred bird of the goddess Athena and a symbol of higher wisdom. She was considered the guardian of the Athenian Acropolis. The Gnostics of the early Christian era associated the owl with Lilith, Adam's first wife, who refused to obey him. For the Pawnee Indians, the owl was a symbol of divine protection, and for the Ojibwe Indians, it was a symbol of evil and death. From Pueblo it was associated with a Human Skeleton, which was both the God of death and Lord of fertility.
