A mourning dove perched on my back deck this morning. Among the different birds I've seen, this is the first time she has come to visit. She's hopped off to the yard below now, but I can still hear her cooing.

As a totem animal, the dove represents the feminine, peace, maternity, prophecy.

The dove is the embodiment of maternal instinct. She is connected to Mother Earth and her creative energies. Her mournful call speaks to our deepest self and stirs our emotions. The voice of the dove is a rain song and brings us hope of a new beginning.

The dove is the totem of "Between Times" and shows us the time of the thinning of the veils between the physical and the spiritual world. Listen for her call with your soul.
