Just Ask Jeni - Ji: What Is The Meaning Of A Hawk Crashing Into My Window.
Cover Photo By Martin Adams
A few weeks ago, as I was standing in my room talking on the phone, a hawk crashed at full speed right squarely into the middle of the window. I didn’t see it happen but there is a mark on the window where I can make out the head and the wings. The sound was so loud I almost thought there was an explosion outside and I’m surprised the window didn’t break. It was a Swanson’s Hawk and it looked like it died if not immediately then within moments, as it lay in the bleeding hearts below the window.
Namaste Jennifer and thank you for your question!
When I received your question, I felt the energy of the hawk go right through me. When spirit wants to communicate it sure makes itself known, especially when so much has been going on in your life. The first thing you need to reflect on is; “who were you talking to on the phone and how was the conversation?”
You have been giving a lot of your energy to others for awhile now and you truly need to take a break, especially away from current events. When was the last time you had quiet alone time for you with no distractions? Turn off your phone and get away if possible to a remote location by yourself. You may wonder how is that possible with what is going on. The ole saying is, “the more cluttered your thoughts are to make decisions the more alone time your soul requires in order for you to hear it’s messages.” We all have intuition and when we cannot hear our soul speak we need to pause, and be alone to reflect. Do what ever it takes to find peace within. Over thinking creates muddy thought forms and your vision is blocked. Fear keeps you away from potential.
I’m not surprised at all it was a hawk who was trying to get your attention and especially when you were on the phone. The phone represents communication. That’s why I asked you who you were talking to. But not only that…the answer lies in communication as it is. Take a look at what energy and environment you are surrounded with as well. Is it time to let go and look at reality with what changes you need to make. Your voice wants to come through louder and others are only hearing what they want to hear. You cannot save others, you can only guide them. We all see things through our level of perception and each one of us has our own evolutional journey. Consciousness travels faster than the speed of light. That is why when you are overly extended by giving, then you need to stop and start receiving rather than giving so much. You have to start mothering yourself more. Make all decisions based upon your own truth. You will feel peace within you when you make the right decisions. This is the year for change.
The hawk was telling you that new doors are opening for you when you let go. Slow down and take time out to meditate and stop procrastinating. Hawks have very sharp eyesight and he wants you to open your third eye to see more. They are known as the God of light connected with the sun. The more you meditate the sharper your vision will become. You become more aligned with your higher self and you see more by quieting the mind. Be patient!!
After you meditate it’s important to then shake off the excess energy. Do not go and lay down. Excercise after meditation is the best way to shake off old energy which will make you feel better and help you to see more clarity or else you wont be grounded. Your aura will cleanse the old stuck energy. Keep your Pranic energy clear.
Hawks are powerful messengers and when it hit your window with such force it’s giving you a huge sign. Be grateful for its message. If you don’t start taking time out for you, your immune system will suffer greatly which is the last thing you need right now. You may think you take time out but as I read into the energy of the hawks message I am hearing you need to take its message serious. It’s definitely a warning. Be grateful for the message from the hawk and thank him. He will hear you. His work is now done. He was showing you what needs to change. Be open. Start writing things down that your drawn to, what you need to change and especially pay attention to others with observing.
Just to give you an example, many years ago I was with 2 friends who I did not want to be with and we were on our way to an event. They were in front of me and I was walking behind them. I felt someone push me to the ground very hard and I sprained my ankle badly. I turned around and no one was there. I knew that was spirit confirming to me to pay attention. So of course I told them to go on without me and I had to stay home. When spirit wants to make themselves known in a big way, it happens. Our guides from all spirit forms come through in many ways. The hawk knew its mission and wanted to get your attention before it departed. The essence of God is within you. We are one.
We all cross paths with many of Gods species: animal kingdom, plant kingdom, humanity, etc. This is for many reasons. It can be to heal us, to teach us, to show us unconditional love and even painful lessons. Look at the bigger picture of where you are going and don’t look at the past! Only reflect back from lessons learnt in gratitude with divine grace. Accept only love, love is the essence of soul.
Sending many blessings & prosperity your way!
