      Raven - Bird Light Wind Photography by Walter Kitundu

      In many European cultures, Raven was the one who waited at the fields of war to collect the dead.

      Raven is Magick, who offers the power and courage to enter the void of the Great Mystery, and return. Raven specialises in changing consciousness. His black cloak is the colour of the void, and the space that is holding the energy of creation. Black is about the seeking of answers and the road to the spiritual or non physical.

      Raven is the guardian of ceremony and healing. Raven helps to shift to a new reality – whether it is in ceremony, or whether that is the new perspective needed to facilitate healing. When you pray for healing, Raven is often a courier to take that healing where it is needed.

      Raven’s feathers are iridescent, indicating change of energy and consciousness. Raven brings together opposites – life and death, good and bad – the magick of Raven is his ability to merge duality and contradiction into Oneness.

      In Native American lore, he was the Creator of the Sun, Moon and Earth, and can shapeshift into any form, giving light, fire and water to the Indians. In Aboriginal lore, he stole fire from the Pleiades. In China he is the rising, noon, and setting sun.

      He is a trickster and sacred messenger, and has the gift of speech – his eyes are the eyes of the gods, and he speaks to the Celtic God Lugh, as well as to Odhin. In Tibet, he is the only messenger of the Supreme Being.

      Raven speaks of the need to relax your body so that you can manifest higher consciousness. Pay attention and be mindful.

      From Steven Farmer’s, “Power Animals,” ask for Raven’s help when:
      * You’ve had a traumatic childhood and are ready to recover and reclaim the innocence and joy you’ve lost.
      * You’ve lost touch with the magick in your life and want to learn how to recapture it.
      * You’re in need of physical or emotional healing for yourself or others.

      To access Raven, ask for healing. Spend some time in darkness (in a safe place) and learn to become comfortable in the velvety blackness of night. Ask Raven to carry your prayers and dreams from the dark into the light.

      Raven encourages you to explore the ares of unknown – to release your fear. By doing this, you can access the magickal forces of your destiny, and create light, freedom and happiness. You will easily access psychic abilities, and Raven helps you Travel the Worlds.
