As each day struggles to the light,
The Rooster’s crow will banish night.
He walks a straight and narrow line
Between ridiculous and sublime
To help us see that we can be
As silly or as sane as he!

Spirit Catcher's Story

The crowing of the Rooster at dawn is universally recognized as heralding the return of the Sun and the banishment of the night. For this reason, it is believed that Rooster walks the fine line between this world and the other; the light and the dark.

The Rooster also represents a joyful and enthusiastic approach to life. He symbolizes the pioneering spirit which is devoted to work and the pursuit of knowledge. The Rooster is ever ready to protect his flock but equally ready to investigate new and intriguing situations which arise in his domain.

The Rooster rules the roost not so much by force as by vigilance. He is ever aware of what is going on around him and ready to react on a moment’s notice. His concern is for the good of the whole before he considers his own needs.

The Chi

The energy this Spirit Catcher brings to the garden is strong and powerful. On the one hand there is pride in the physical aspect of the garden and its appearance. On the other hand is the wonder at the mysteries of the “other side” where magic is but a blink away.

(There really may be Fairies at the bottom of your garden!)
