Representing mystics, the blackbird is said to have a hypnotic hold over others. It has strongly been connected with omens and is
believed to be able to move between the seen and unseen worlds with clarity. Blackbird medicine can help you to understand the
energies of Mother Earth. Its cycle of power is summer and its messages are of understanding the energies of Mother Nature.
The blackbirds iridescent black plumage holds the energies of mysticism and magic. Druid legends say that the birds of Rhiannan are
3 blackbirds which sit and sing in the World tree of other worlds. Their singing puts the listener into a sleep or a trance which
enables him or her to travel to the otherworld. It was said to impart mystic secrets. Those with this medicine often have a hypnotic
influence on others as well as an uncanny ability to move between the seen and unseen worlds with clarity. They make excellent
shamans and trance channelers.
Blackbirds are timid and prefer their own company over the company of others. In humans shyness and insecurity in group settings is
common. Vulnerable to outside influences those with this totem need to remember to clear accumulated influences from their energy
field on a regular basis.
The male's distinctive song during breeding season is loud and melodious with flute like qualities. Males often sing from high perches
and both sexes produce a variety of sounds which include mimicking other birds. Blackbird medicine people love to sing and have the
ability use their voice to heal and inform. They are also good ventriloquists.
Blackbirds spend much of their time on the ground. Its locomotion includes walking, climbing and hopping forward and backwards.
They forage for food in open spaces although cover is always near by. When foraging in leaf litter under trees they sound like people
walking . In humans this suggests an ability to remain grounded in the earth energies while walking a spiritual path.
When resting the blackbird is frequently seen stretching, legs extended back, side wings in full extension, tail spread, and the head
tilted to one side as if listening. Yoga and movement therapy are beneficial for those that hold this totem.
The blackbirds flights are low, short and undulating but fast and direct over open country. They move with determination and focus
and can teach us how to do the same. When blackbird flies into your life your connection with nature and the forces of creation
increase. The magic of the underworld surfaces in your life. Awareness is heightened and change on a cellular level begins. The
blackbird teaches you how to acknowledge your power and use it to its fullest
