Great Owl Spirit

Connections

  • At ten years old, Kaya was visited by an owl spirit who told her she would decide the fate of her world

Context

The Inuit people's belief system (religion, mythology, whatever you'd prefer) is heavily influenced by the naturally frigid climate in which they live, and animal spirits were a part of those beliefs. I didn't find any particular deity or creature in traditional Inuit spirituality that corresponded to a "Great Owl Spirit," however. There are several mythical stories that involve owls, though.
