Does anyone know what it means when you are followed by a hawk?

Question

I live in the mountains, in an area where there are many birds of prey. For the last two weeks or so, I have been followed by a hawk. Not only A hawk but the same hawk. It has gotten close enough for me to see a few times so I know that it is the same hawk, not only does it have the same coloring but it is a young one so it is distinguishable. I was driving home the other day and it was soaring above my car. It perched on the top of a tree right in front of me twice. It soars over my hou7se and flies by. Not only the real hawk but, the other day I was driving home from the city, still in the city and I was sick that day. I pulled over to throw up and look across the street and there is a Huge statue of a hawk. What does it mean when you are stalked by a hawk? The reason I ask is because, when my sister was pregnant, she was followed by dragonflies all of the time. Later, we found out the they were supposedly spirits visiting her and the baby. Serious answers only plz. Thanks in advance

Answer 1

The Hawk

In Native American cultures the hawk represents a messenger. It often appears in our life when we need to pay attention to the subtle messages found in our surroundings and from those we come in contact with. As with all messages received it is important to recognize its underlying truth. Because there are so many varieties of hawk its messages vary and can affect all levels of our psyche.

One thing that all hawks have in common is the skill to move between the seen and unseen realms gracefully connecting both worlds together. Their acute vision compliments this ability and their discriminating nature keeps them out of harms way. The broader vision of the hawk allows them to see what the future holds. In man this symbolizes prophetic insight. If this medicine is underdeveloped a tendency towards over analyzing everything is common. In so doing, clear vision is lost. Those who hold this totem should remember to keep their analytical mind under control and not allow it to run wild.

The hawk has many foraging techniques. The most typical in their pursuit of prey is swiftly following the animal's efforts to escape. Once the hawk has secured the prey with its powerful talons, the bird dismembers it with its sharply pointed, strong beak. In man, this suggests that we can run but we cannot hide from our destiny. Sooner of later it will catch up with us.

The destiny of all humankind is to awaken from their spiritual amnesia and realign with the original intention of their soul. When the hawk flies into our life we will be asked to evaluate who we have become and rip out the threads of our self created illusions. This enables our inner truth to surface.

Hawk signifies union with Great Spirit. A bird of the heavens the hawk orchestrates the changes necessary for our spiritual growth. Having this totem can be bitter sweet. If we accept its presence in our life we will be asked to surrender anything that doesn't honor the integrity of all life. Be it an idea, a feeling or an action. Although hard work is involved the rewards the hawk offers us are great.

HI, I do not no how true this is, but I read all types of books. I have also read this in a book, about how animals and other things like coins and feathers ect.. can be a symbol for a past love one. They maybe just trying to tell you that I am here. I have also read books that say that it could be your guide telling you that there around you. Or it could be your totem. You can look this stuff up. I remember reading some books on this. Or it could just be a coincidense. I believe this happens to alot of people. They just do not notice it and you did. Similar things have happened to me. For 2 years I would see the number 11 on the clock everytime I looked at it. It used to drive me crazy, because I could not figure out why. I found out that I was not alone, there were alot of people who always see this number.

Answer 3

My Totem animal is a White Hawk. Perhaps you have some affinity for the Hawk. If so, be honored. Hawks are great hunters. They are sharp of eye, quick of thought, and strong flyers.

Answer 4

It may have been raised by some wildlife protection agency and re-released back into the wild. It might not fear you and even associate you with free food. A statue too? The hawk is sacred to the goddess Frejya, you might look her up. Are you pregnant?
