Old Forest Mother Tote

The Barred Owl is a species known as Strix Varia - “varia” is Latin for “varius” meaning diverse. Barred owls represent vivaciousness and a deep knowledge of personal boundary and generosity. Its dark brown eyes indicate a deep connection to spirituality and creative ability. The eyes of an artist are reflected in the eyes of these large beautiful creatures. Their call is unique and prominent and some followers say their call sounds as though they're saying “Who cooks, who cooks for you ALL?”
