Each of our houses represents a vital characteristic of the Eagle:
🪽Courage – Facing challenges with confidence and bravery.
The wings are a symbol of COURAGE, the eagle is a reminder that we are capable of achieving much more than we might think we can. The eagle challenges you to face fears and confront both enemies and barriers head-on.
