Unpredictable, High Spirited, Reference

One thing I haven't told you about is my obsession with superstition; my favourite superstitions are that of Magpies... everybody's heard the popular rhyme right?

One for sorrow,
Two for joy,
Three for a girl,
Four for a boy,
Five for silver,
Six for gold,
Seven for a secret
never to be told.

This is the most common superstition about our favourite winged creature but there are a lot more hidden features of the Magpie.



-When the Magpie comes into our lives, it is often a reminder that we have to re-evaluate our lives. Do you see how majestic these birds are, how then bounce/jump along the pavement and then fly off - when you see a magpie, most will think of that rhyme, some will salute but either way you're thinking. So, next time you see a magpie, think. Think about everything and everyone, re-evaluate your life, studies, friends; most importantly make sure you are achieving high and doing what you want to do.



-The Magpie builds it's home in the thickest "V" of trees. Forks or 'V's in nature are symbolic gateways or paths into the Spirit Realm. Here the magpie asks us about our minds, are they open to the majestic views of the world or silenced, to push everybody out?



-The magpie with striking colouration, is symbolic of flamboyance, expression and glamour. This metaphorical meaning is my favourite, here the magpie is beckoning us to reveal our brilliance: A reminder that we are each composed with incredible beauty and grace, inside and out.

Recently, my blog has been focused on Miss Bolton 2015, but I want to treat my 'random' posts and incorporate them to show how relevant pageants are in society.


It could be said that each pageant girl, beauty queen, participant is a magpie. We achieve to be great, to show our communities what we are made of, we get upon that stage and show our confidence and pride like we're the only ones in the room and most important, we have big hearts.


These are the main qualities of a pageant contestant, and a lot of other individuals in the world: all of us have a bit of pageantry in us - we ALL just need to put it out there. Let the Magpie be our ultimate role model!
