“I am drawn to the wild not because it is wild but because it is sensible, logical, ordered, stable, resilient. Wild nature is everything we're struggling to regain.

“There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,

There is a rapture on the lonely shore,

There is society where none intrudes,

By the deep sea, and music in its roar,

I love not man the less, but nature more”

— F. Scott Fitzgerald

Woodpecker Encounters & Omens 🌿

When you encounter a woodpecker, it symbolizes how you need to connect with others. It represents how all beings are connected and how we can make the world innately better by strengthening that bond among us.

Secondly, coming across a woodpecker also heightens your level of awareness. It means taking careful note of all the opportunities knocking on your door and not wasting time opening them. You could gain inspiration from the bird, which considers even a dead tree a valuable source of food and shelter for its younger ones.

While the woodpecker hammers her beak against the hardwood to maximize her benefits, you can use your wisdom, creativity, and perseverance to reap the maximum benefits in life. No matter how impossible or complicated your situation, maybe, if you use your head wisely, you will find a strong foothold in life.

Woodpecker Mythology and Folklore 🌿

The woodpecker occupies great importance in several ancient mythologies from all over the world.

The woodpecker mythology sourced from the Romans highlights Picus’s role, a woodpecker that the God of Mars held sacred. The mythology elevated the status of a woodpecker to a minor God in ancient Italy, due to its fertile and productive nature. 

The ancient Roman mythology also associated Picus with the fertilization of soil and manure. This Greek woodpecker’s status as an agricultural deity also encompasses all the other woodpeckers in the cycle of nature.

In Greek mythology too, the woodpecker is sacred to Ares and Zeus. The Roman mythology associates the woodpecker with Mars, a planet of initiative and energy.

Woodpeckers have also been a star feature of several folklores all around the world. Native American, Indian and Irish tribes have spun fancy tales around a woodpecker to entertain people of ages. 

‘Why the Woodpecker Pecks’ from the Tejas Legends and the Lenape folklore about the maple tree and woodpeckers helping each other are two excellent examples. Pileated woodpecker symbolism is native to North America.

Woodpecker Spirit Animal 🌿

If you have the woodpecker spirit animal, it means you are deeply committed to your loved ones, be it your family or friends. Having the woodpecker’s spirit animal is a sign of how fiercely you love others and seek the validation of your love in how the others accept you.

Because of your thorough devotion, you are sensitive to the needs of others. They do not need words to communicate because you instinctively sense when a loved one is suffering, distressed, hurt, or sad. A woodpecker’s heart bears kindness, and thus, yours does too. This spirit animal does not tire of taking care of its loved ones.

As your spirit animal is a natural nurturer, you also believe in nurturing true happiness and satisfaction. Loyalty and faithfulness lay deep-rooted in your blood, the woodpecker totem drives you to love unconditionally and build a happy home where love conquers all.

You believe in the power of communication and tirelessly peck through the tough shells of people, until you reach them the way you want.

Woodpecker Totem Animal 🌿

The woodpecker totem symbolizes opportunities knocking at your door, just as the bird pecking at the wood creates a knocking sound. As the saying goes, “whenever the opportunity comes knocking, you must always open door.” This signifies the spiritual meaning of knocking.

The woodpecker can feed itself because it sees value in everything and never gives up at the slightest difficulty. If the bird didn’t continue hammering, it would not be able to maximize its benefits. You must be relentless in your struggle of making a foundation, a permanent solid ground in your life.

With a woodpecker as your animal totem, you can recall any past events in life when you gave up too soon and missed great outcomes. You must try to recapture and revive the spirit of the past. Then, it may be possible to attain the success you had lost before. If the woodpeckers did not continue pecking at even the dead trees, they wouldn’t find their haven for survival in the end.

The woodpecker animal totem tells you to keep moving forward until you reached your desired success level. Use your intellectual ability and strength and set your directions and plans for life. Then let the woodpecker animal totem initiate and drive your energy to achievement.

Woodpecker Power Animal 🌿

Woodpecker power animal is your calling when you wish to enhance your communication skills. You can distinguish a woodpecker’s rapping quite distinctly from all other sounds of nature. Similarly, as a power animal, a woodpecker helps you find your voice and strengthens concise and clear expression.

The power animal crystallizes your message’s precision and makes it possible for others to understand your subtle clues, your signals, and your unspoken communication better.

When you are navigating through a difficult patch in life, invoke the woodpecker power animal in you. It will drive you to peck away at any barriers standing in our path, to barrel forwards in your quest for truth, and persistently hammer out the difficulties with determination and faithfulness to your course.
