The night caller, the bringer of Shadow Lord and Storm. Bringer of death and rebirth. Its cry calls sorrow through the night. She is your rebirth. Death is perhaps the greatest separation. ‘Letting go’ and acceptance are the main lessons with curlew, as well as the human experience of sorrow and emotional pain surrounding a meaningful separation and navigating how to express it and work through it. Love’s shadow side is illuminated by the cries of this bird. With love, the fear of loss, and even an actual loss, can dim the beauty and joy of love and its expression. And its quite fitting curlew can mean new life, new beginnings, the spark of something new. The curlew may be heard at night, in the dark, when all is still, quiet, and mysterious, even in the rain, the flood of Biami’s tears. It might be an opportunity to count blessing and appreciate the loved ones in your life. Remember the best qualities of the parent and child relationship when you hear curlew in the wee hours before dawn, when night is at its darkest. In aboriginal stories- if Curlew comes night after night, calling to you. She heralds someone passing over to the Dream Time.
Native Pheasant reminds you that using your gifts to get what you want. Knowing when to express yourself and when to refrain from doing so.
Being creative, productive, and tapping into the passions that burn within you.
 It is important to note the element of balance. He is a riot of glam and colour, but ever ready to slip into the tall grasses or sheltering shrubbery when he must. In other words, the pheasant can be a showoff, but he is always ready to retract his wiles when the time calls for it.
This a powerful metaphor in our lives. We can show our bright colours of creativity, and influence in the world – but we must know the proper time in which to do so. The pheasant reminds us that no matter how vibrant and original we may be, if we carelessly throw our gifts out at inappropriate times, or to un-listening audiences our efforts are in vain.

Care for Tools
Moths and other bugs love feathers, every 6 months, spray with a natural fly spray, at about 80cm away from tool, only need a light coating.
If gets dusty, damp cloth and gently wipe the feathers.
If there is wood as part of your tool, use Tung oil if need to re-oil, or just let the natural oils from your hands oil it. Do not use Linseed Oil as White Ant love it.
Most tools are made to hang- cats, dogs, rats & mice love eating feathers.
Tools are a working tool. Great to meditate with, use in healings, smudge, and use as a totem.
Smudge it regular, especially if other people are using it.
