Peacock Powers
Peacocks symbolize beauty, watchfulness and immortality. Peacock gifts include all aspects of beauty, wholeness, ability to see into the past, present and future, immortality, dignity, rising out of ashes, self confidence and watchfulness. The male peacock is referred to as a Peacock and the female as a Peahen.
Peacock feathers are meaningful to those with the power of death and rebirth, for they also have an association with rising out of the ashes. They can help us shed the old feathers of the past and take back the true beauty of our individuality, and this increases our self-respect and confidence.
Peacocks have a shimmering, opalescence with boisterous cries that hold a touch of laughter as if to imply that no-thing, including beauty, should be taken too seriously. This helps remind us to stay centered on what is and to be grateful for what we have and to also have a more light hearted approach to things that come our way -- as laughter really IS the best medicine.
This is an important facet of wholeness. Wholeness indicates a merging of ones many aspects, without an excessive focus on what appears to be missing. The Peacock and the Peahen, therefore remind us that true beauty comes from the inside.
Those who discover Peacock as their Power animal can insight into their past lives and their Karmic connection to their current life.
In Shamanic rituals, Peacock feathers are used as an aide in healing as they are believed to have protective powers.
