The screech of the owl can be a bad omen in some cultures. Her call has often been considered as inviting death- seeing an owl meant that someone is going to die in the family. The Latin name of the owl mostly starts with the word "strix" - and this means "witch" as well. The Celts believed that the owl carries the souls of the deceased into the Land of Youth,Tir nan Og or Avalon, the Isle of Apples. Witches were once accused of turning, shapeshifting, into owls in order to fly away and spy on their victims. Some cultures consider it a bad omen, yet some regard it as a very powerful element of the night. The owl can fly in near total darkness, yet still see it's prey. Many witches have owls as a familiar, or animal totem, as it gives them insight and help.
