The owl has been revered in many cultures for its symbolism of wisdom, protection, and prosperity. With its keen eyes and silent flight, it is believed to ward off negativity and attract positive energy. In Japan, owls are considered lucky because the word for owl in Japanese — fukurō contains the word for luck, fuku and also carries the double meaning of “without hardship.” For this reason, owls are featured prominently in Japanese art and many Japanese people carry an owl charm for good luck.
