Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day the Red Fox

Fox steps up today to share the teachings of “Self Preservation and Caution”. Yup that means we all need to stop and observe today and over the upcoming weekend before what my Pops used to say “Step in it”! Think before opening your mouth and speaking rashly or out of turn, for it will not be appreciated at all and may even cause bigger riffs and tears into situations.

Fox tells us sometimes it is best to be patient watching how things unfold, observing how best to avoid negatives and dangerous situations in order to go about your own business in a better way. So be mindful as this weekend unfolds folks, for there is enough agitation and chaos already in it, we most definitely do not need to add to it!

The Fox brings us lessons on survival and adaptability, teaching us that sometimes it is best to hide in plain sight rather than to secure yourself in the shadows. To be adaptable in the pursuit of our goals, so we can accomplish what we have set out to do for the highest good.

Fox calls us to listen to that little voice we all have inside called “intuition” and trust it when it signals us to be aware of certain things as we are walking our paths. Fox also reminds us that it is okay to be alone once in awhile for it teaches us to be self reliant and independent, which makes us stronger beings able to stand in our Sacred Hoops balanced and secure.

Yet be aware and walk with open senses to the world around you so that you will not be surprised but rather prepared for what shows up on your walk. Patience is another lesson Fox brings to the table for us, patience to watch, listen and learn without movement until we can gain the knowledge needed to accomplish what we have set out to be or do. If we rely on what it is we instinctively know, it will guide us in the right direction.

Know what it is you are seeking and then reach into your toolkit that you have been provided and use what you know in positive ways to get you there.
