The feather is a reminder of divine protection
Native American cultures have a deep bond with birds and their feathers. Feathers are key in sacred ceremonies for healing and balance. They also mark achievements and overcoming fears. The Liberty Wildlife Non-Eagle Feather Repository (NEFR) has helped over 6,000 Native Americans. They send feathers to 249 tribes in 46 states. The NEFR works with over 1,100 bird species and helped thousands of birds in 2022. Feathers mean a lot in Native American cultures. Eagle feathers, for example, symbolize victory and strength. To get an eagle feather, a warrior must show great courage and earn the tribe’s respect. Turkey feathers are also important, meaning abundance and fertility. Each color has its own meaning, like black for protection.
