An image of mine of a colorful peacock tail feather which I digitally transformed into a 'field of feathers' and added one of my sunset skies and then some painted trees silhouetted in the background. As a final touch, I added an orb or sphere to represent the moon made digitally also from the original peacock feather photograph. It was a bit of fun.

Viewed as socially unacceptable to go around without body paint, the Kayapó spend hours working on the elaborate designs they paint on each other. The designs say a lot about who a person is, from gender and age, to social status, to personality.

According to the ancient Native American beliefs feathers are infused with his own magic for protection and good luck.
" Magic is the art of bringing about wanted change. "
In natural magic feathers are used in spells and ceremonies to promote change. They are used as catalysts to help focus concentration while carrying out spells and wishes.
The medicine bag, also called power pouch or sachet, often includes special feathers which have meaning to the wearer and help attracting good luck as well as driving away bad things.
Feathers are magically ruled by the element of air. This makes them good communication helpers. But each feather also can hold other special powers; depending on the bird it came from, its color and place of discovery and other factors.
The knowledge what kind of feather is best used for what kind of indent can only be found out for oneself by trial and error. A pigeon feather is not as helpful for creating a defense strategy than a feather taken from a bird of prey.
The general rule for future feather magicians is always to use self found feathers rather than bought ones. A shop cannot substitute a walk in nature, nor the joy when the wanted feather is finally found.
