The Hawk Mapuche Symbol Adjustable Bracelet

The Hawk represents important ancestors in Mapuche culture. Ancestral spirits are often seen as Hawks of the Sun and hold special significance for the Mapuche. These Hawks of the Sun are often seen in dreams and ceremonies, and are viewed as a message from the ancestors. If the hawks circle to the right, it symbolizes good fortune. However, if they circle to the left, it is seen as a sign of evil to come. Generally, a circle to the left represents some form of human error or sin and is seen as a bad omen.
