The Native American feather is used to represent freedom, power, wisdom, honor, trust, strength, and much more. It was often given as a sign of respect and honor by chiefs or elders as a symbol of strength. Being given a feather of any kind was considered a gift. It should be seen as a daily reminder of how one should behave.
