Hi Mdog
Not sure about the Number 13 and its meaning behind it -
Some Believe it Represents the Owl
Easier to make a 13 than to Create an Owl Rock Marker
And Because the 13 is Small in Size – you mite be really close to your Target
You mite want to look at that for some meaning
And Always look for Markers that give you Direction
I don't use measurements only Compass Directions
Once in an Area/ Yard that is Discovered –
I use GPR I don't waste time trying to measure things out
Not that I am against it – if you want to do what they did 300 years ago – that's fine
Yes you can step and measure things out
But this 2025 and there is no need to do it the old way
When we have the Technology today to look into the Ground before any digging
So why not use it to your Advantage.
Stone Markers
The Reason for Stone Markers is mostly to give you Messages and Direction
And to understand Animal Markers you first have to look at their symbolism
to gain their meaning behind the Messaging to understand their Messages
The Turtle as a Treasure Marker
For Example lets look at The Turtle as a Treasure Marker
Their symbolism is Protection
When they hide inside They are Protecting themselves
Hiding inside – Meaning Buried inside/underground
They Lay Eggs – Eggs Need Protection-Turtles Bury their Eggs
So the Basic meaning is something Buried and is being Protected
You will find that other Animals
Like the Snake and Bird Nesting used as Treasure Markers
Because of the Fact that they also Lay Eggs
The Egg as a Treasure Marker – The Egg Gives Life and Needs Protection
If you Break open an Egg – What you see is a Large Golden Yoke
The Yoke Representing Gold That Gives Life and Gold as we know Needs Protection
And for Direction – Like Most Markers they give the Message of Direction
and will Point out the Way to Go or Look
This can be done in Many Way – But Mostly they Use the Head to Point out the Way
Not so much the Feet because the Feet Can be moved or come up missing
This is why you will find most Turtles Heads Sticking out
and Wedged into the Rock so it can not be Moved
And its up to you the searcher to figure things out
Sometime thing are not so clear – Because Like I have always said -
You are at the Marcy of the One who Created it – and what are they trying to tell you
Here is a Turtle that was Small –
Telling me because of it Size - I was Really Close and in the Area of my so called Target
I followed the Head at First but it lead Nowhere
But then after a Closer look at the Small Turtle
I Seen a Chiseled face on the Side of the Turtle Shell
So of course the Message was – what was this face looking at
Giving me the Right Direction to search
Again the Meaning – Something was Buried and Being Protected was Near by
Only 50 feet way I found the Boulders that Covered the Opening of the Shaft
And Confirmed it with my GPR
So Understanding the Animal Markers you are Looking at
Gives Meaning to the Messaging your looking for.
