Dear Friends,
Just now I spotted wild 3 turkeys on my garage roof…….so I looked up their symbolism. 3 is also my lucky number. Just 10 minutes later, my abundance appears to have multiplied! As I look out my window at my front lawn, there are now 11 wild turkeys foraging in the leaves for an afternoon meal. I send my gratitude to the Universe for my many blessings today.

from http://spirit-animals.com/turkey:
Make good use of your talents and resources. Give thanks for the bounty that surrounds your life now.-Turkey
If Turkey has come across your path;
It is usually a good omen indicating that great gifts are imminently forth coming. Know that Turkey is always a symbol of sacrifice for renewal and that generosity will open the doors to growth and rebirth. Turkey also reminds you that nothing is an endless resource if it is not honored and nurtured. Be sure that you cultivate and care for those renewable resources that benefit your life. Regardless of your circumstances it is time to listen to your higher vision to achieve your goals, whether they are spiritual, physical, mental or emotional.
If Turkey is your Animal Totem;
You have a tendency to be the “abundance generator” for your friends, family and community. You have a gift for attracting all the bounty of the universe available to you and you are willing to share. You will often meet the needs of others in a give away self sacrifice form simply because all life is sacred to you. You easily translate your life experience into growth and understanding. You recognize that what you do for others you also do for yourself
If Turkey has come into your Dream;
Seeing turkeys in a dream may signify an abundant gain in business, and favorable crops to the farmer. It could also mean that you are being foolish and not thinking clearly. To see them dressed for the market, denotes improvement in your financial affairs.
Alternatively to dream that you eat turkey, foretells some joyful occasion approaching and may represent a holiday feast. To see them flying, denotes a rapid transit from obscurity to prominence.
To dream that you are hunting or shooting a ticket, means that you are acquiring your riches through dishonest means.

Turkey,(Wild Turkey) — A symbol of sacrifice and a giver of life. Native American peoples saw the turkey as a sacred bird because their great abundance provided a source of good meat. It gives its life so others may live. The turkey symbolizes the harvest bounty and honoring of the Earth Mother. Wild turkeys were almost eliminated because they were taken for granted and the turkey teaches a need to remember that nothing is an endless resource and that all gifts that come from the Great Spirit must be honored. When 3 turkeys cross your path a strange and eerie encounter lies ahead.
(Note from Goldenlight on text from this site: this was hard to read and made me very sad to read. I cannot even post it here. Turkeys raised for the supermarket are inhumanely treated. Consider this when buying turkeys at the supermarket. Opt for organic, humanely raised turkeys instead.)

Symbolic Turkey Meanings
Turkeys have been a symbol of thanksgiving and abundance long before the Piligrim’s “first meal” in 1621 with the Northern Native Americans.
Certain Native American tribes view the turkey as both a symbol of abundance and fertility. Indeed, the turkey was the guest of honor (sacrificial, that is) in various fertility and gratitude ceremonies.
The Creek tribes still practice the turkey dance during its annual fire festivals. The feathers of turkeys are also used in ritual (see my Native American Feather Symbolism post )
The turkey was thought to be sacred to ancient Mexican cultures. The Aztecs, Mayans and Toltecs viewed the turkey as a “jeweled bird” and also referred to it as the “Great Xolotl.” Male turkeys were honored for their beauty and essence of cocky pride.
