According to tradition, Moshiach will be wiser than Solomon, and a prophet around the level of Moses. Ever since the destruction of the Holy Temple, in every generation there is an individual, a scion of the House of David, who has the potential to be the Moshiach. If at any moment the Jews are worthy of redemption, this person would be directed from Above to assume the role of the redeemer. [link to www.chabad.org] |

Check this out... In the culture of the Uto-Aztec tribe, the Hopi, taboos surround owls, which are associated with sorcery and other evils. The Aztecs and Maya, along with other Natives of Mesoamerica, considered the owl a symbol of death and destruction. In fact, the Aztec god of death, Mictlantecuhtli, was often depicted with owls. There is an old saying in Mexico that is still in use:[32] Cuando el tecolote canta, el indio muere ("When the owl cries/sings, the Indian dies"). The Popol Vuh, a Mayan religious text, describes owls as messengers of Xibalba (the Mayan "Place of Fright").[33] The belief that owls are messengers and harbingers of the dark powers is also found among the Hočągara (Winnebago) of Wisconsin.[34] When in earlier days the Hočągara committed the sin of killing enemies while they were within the sanctuary of the chief's lodge, an owl appeared and spoke to them in the voice of a human, saying, "From now on the Hočągara will have no luck." This marked the beginning of the decline of their tribe.[35] An owl appeared to Glory of the Morning, the only female chief of the Hočąk nation, and uttered her name. Soon afterwards she died.[36][37] People often allude to the reputation of owls as bearers of supernatural danger when they tell misbehaving children, "the owls will get you."[38] Also, in the native Cherokee culture, as well as many other Native American cultures, owls are a very bad omen.

I noticed this last year and it's gotten worse. There's definately an occult connection. I know it. For the record, I have nothing against the actual animal. They are beautiful and fascinating. I have long feared that my sins would return to visit me, and the cost is more than I can bear. - The Patriot |

Foreboding, a sense of something impending--and hidden yet in-your-face. I'm walking around this cheerful home-stuff store and BAM! I'm hit with this weird feeling. Almost like I saw something I wasn't supposed to see. I agree owls are beautiful and interesting animals. But there was something about the *context* in which this hit me that indicated another meaning. Quite unlike the 'noble and wise animal' meaning. Take that and chew on it for a while. See if you see anything. Who knows? |

He peeks through the windows and peers through the crevices not wanting to be noticed. Why is he depicted as one who hides himself from the Jewish people? Is there something about his appearance that might cause embarrassment or that could bring condemnation? ------------------------------------------------- Why is Moshiach concealed? Could it be that he is hidden among the Christians is present day Edom? It's any ones guess what may have triggered the separation but one thing is for certain, in the latter days just prior to Moshiach‘s inauguration the son of David is a resident of Edom. |

The other is that the owl is God's creation, and there are many animals and natural systems which activate and liven at NIGHT! My perspective is that is good to see through the darkness - even when our eyes are closed we can still see light, so do not let the darkness cripple you with fear. BTW, I do not mean to hint at the occult garbage in any way. God is our provider, protector, light and love. |

Associated as its name is with the meaning of rolling oneself up into a ball, the kippod has been identified with the short-eared owl (Asio flamneus) which adopts a rotund posture and lives near swamps and in ruined places, and hence Isaiah (14:23) prophesies that Babylonia would be made into "a possession for the kippod and pools of water." The hedgehog is also called kippod or koppad in the Mishnah (Shab. 5:4), because it rolls itself up into a ball. (10) The lilit (JPS, "night monster," AV, "screech owl"), which also occurs in Isaiah's prophecy about Edom (34:14), refers to a species of bird (cf. Nid. 24b), the word, connected with laylah ("night"), denoting a nocturnal bird, perhaps the tawny owl (Strix aluco). In the aggadah it is the name of a night-demon (see *Lilith). The sa'ir, mentioned alongside the lilit, is apparently also a species of owl. This word is now applied to the smallest of the owls, the Otus scopus. Another view holds that it refers to a species of demon (cf. Lev. 17; II Chron. 11:15) Revelation 18:2 KJV "And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird."

A friend of mine just sent this today :) “White Owl Flies Into and Out of the Field” “Coming down out of the freezing sky with its depths of light, like an angel, or a Buddha with wings, it was beautiful, and accurate, striking the snow and whatever was there with a force that left the imprint of the tips of its wings - five feet apart - and the grabbing thrust of its feet, and the indentation of what had been running through the white valleys of the snow - and then it rose, gracefully, and flew back to the frozen marshes to lurk there, like a little lighthouse, in the blue shadows - so I thought: maybe death isn't darkness, after all, but so much light wrapping itself around us - as soft as feathers - that we are instantly weary of looking, and looking, and shut our eyes, not without amazement, and let ourselves be carried, as through the translucence of mica, to the river that is without the least dapple or shadow, that is nothing but light - scalding, aortal light - in which we are washed and washed out of our bones.” - Mary Oliver |
