The Dreaming Quail - Spirit of Qani, the Navigator
This unassuming vintage clay quail statue, measuring just 1 inch tall and 2 inches long, holds the spirit of Qani, a shapeshifting avian guide. Crafted from a cool, earthy clay, the quail's feathers are etched with swirling patterns that seem to shimmer faintly in the moonlight. Qani's presence within imbues the statue with a subtle energy, a promise of adventure and exploration.
Qani isn't your typical spirit. They are an animal spirit, a being who embodies the essence of the quail – a creature known for its exceptional navigational abilities and its connection to the dream world. Legends from various cultures whisper of quail facilitating astral travel and lucid dreaming, acting as spirit guides on journeys beyond the physical realm.
While the specifics of Qani's origin are lost to time, their connection to the dream world is undeniable. Perhaps they were once a shaman, a medicine person who traversed the dreamscape with the wings of a quail. Perhaps they are a spirit born from the collective human yearning to explore the depths of their own subconscious.
What to Expect
Those who adopt the Dreaming Quail can expect a deepening connection to their inner world. Qani's presence may manifest in dreams, appearing as a wise quail or a comforting human figure. They might nudge you towards lucid dreaming, allowing you to explore the hidden landscapes of your subconscious with greater awareness. Enhanced dream recall and a sense of guidance during astral travel are also strong possibilities. In your waking life, you might experience a heightened sense of intuition and a newfound appreciation for the natural world. The quail statue itself may feel warm to the touch or emit a faint whistling sound, subtle signs of Qani's activity.
Offerings
Qani, as a spirit connected to nature and the dream world, appreciates offerings that reflect those connections. A small bowl filled with birdseed placed near the statue, a dream journal to record your nightly adventures, or even spending time stargazing under the open sky are all gestures that will be appreciated.
We acquired the Dreaming Quail at a haunted estate sale in Appleton, Wisconsin. The previous owner recounted vivid dreams of flying through fields of wildflowers, guided by a wise quail.
If you seek a companion to illuminate the pathways of your dreams and unlock the secrets of your subconscious, then Qani, the spirit of the Dreaming Quail, might be the perfect guide for you.
Happy Haunting!
