Falcon is the messenger, symbolic of the rising sun in Egypt, of a house ascendant, royalty. She speaks of flight, of going high in the air to give a new perspective to the situation, to bring this perspective to you.
This is from Ann-Williams Fitzgerald and Karen Osborn’s book, Wisdom of the Australian Animals
Falcon’s wisdom is Communication and Truth. Falcon brings messages from the Gods / Great Spirit; he is the bringer of Truth to all. Falcon flies up into the outstretched arms of Spirit. As he lands gracefully, he tilts his head and listens intently to the Wisdom and the Words of Great Spirit. He then spreads his wings and flies once again, back to the people. He brings the messages Spirit has given him to share. Falcon is ever present, waiting to catch the words of Spirit.
“If falcon has focused on you today Spirit is urging you to listen to the messages he has sent your way. Remember, he may have hidden the message in the trees, rocks or leaves. Listen to the wind for the messages that may be carried within. The important message that Spirit sends is that he is with you, within all, and is always there. You will receive news of great importance; welcome the news, knowing that Spirit has sent it.
Lucy Cavendish writes in her book “Witches and Wizards,” about the Merlin, in association with the Wizard Merlin.
The Merlin is a small, intelligent falcon.
“Merlin is also the name of a small falcon, dark-feathered and barrel-tailed, found within Britain and worked with in traditional falconry. Merlins were prized for their fierce intelligence, ability to interact with humans, and sublime hunting skills. The Druids had many animals which they regarded as sacred, and far-sighted birds of prey were greatly esteemed.
When a Merlin appears to you as a totem, it is a message to your soul to see things from an enlightened perspective – falcons are creatures of the sun, day predators, and they can see even with all the brightness about them. They also remind us to look at our lives and any issues from a higher perspective.
Merlin was also the name given to the head of the druids…”
So a Merlin falcon would also speak of leadership.
