The Green Birds – Learn&Know

• In Indonesian and Papuan myths, the Birds of Paradise, adorned with green feathers, are seen as divine messengers. Green in their plumage represents the lush rainforest, life, and the connection to the spiritual realm.
• In Native American cultures of the Pacific Northwest, the green bird is thought to represent the soul or spirit of a person. It is believed that when a person dies, their spirit transforms into a green bird, symbolising the soul’s journey into the afterlife.
• In South American Amazonian folklore the green parrot is considered a messenger between the physical and spiritual realms. Parrots are often seen as spirits of nature, bringing guidance and wisdom. Their vibrant green feathers are believed to depict the lush, life-giving qualities of the rainforest, and their ability to mimic sounds is seen as a connection to the voices of the gods and ancestors.
