These birds are associated with faith and confidence. They appear in the early spring, so it’s easy to see why they serve as a ray of hope. If you see a cardinal, remember that your loved ones are still with you–and that you should embrace any new beginnings that lie ahead. These birds are talented beauties that keep moving forward, regardless of the obstacles they encounter. If you see a cardinal, be reminded to keep working toward your goals, no matter what.
