So today the Praying Mantis steps into play telling us we need to set our priorities in the correct fashion. Is it really important to know what our neighbors are doing as they go through their day? Nope, why because while we are focused on everyone and everything else we are neglecting what really matters… our own soul care. Stop trying to live up to the Joneses as it is said and worry more about the stuff you are neglecting in your own house! The Praying Mantis is significant as we must learn to walk in balance, we need to understand how to maneuver around or through the negatives in our world, so as not to get side tracked and loose our focus on our own goals.
It is often that we tend to develop a follow the leader mentality easier if we just simply go alone. But does that really help us in any way? We need to tend to our own souls needs. The ugly distractions do not serve anyone other than to lure our attention and push us off into the wrong Directions. So Stand your ground! Don’t get led, for you have got this, why… because you are magnificent, a piece of a greater puzzle, greater good not only for yourself but for Humanity as a whole.
Praying Mantis reminds us this day that as Humans we need to walk hand in hand with this amazing world we share with so many… Not only others like us, but ALL Creatures and Life that are part of the Great Mother Earth. We need to remember that even the smallest pebble, the tiniest blade of grass have purpose in the Great Sacred Circle, and it is up to each of us to keep it protected and safe. Just as it is the same with each other… we must keep each other protected and safe from all the negatives in this world.
Praying Mantis shares that we have gotten lost in the daily activity and chaos of our own lives. That we have forgotten to listen to our own voice. With that said it is time to take a step back and breathe in the 7 Sacred breathes. Reground, replenish what we have given away to this moment. Possibly do some simple meditation to recenter ourselves and remember our true self, our true path. Take a moment and breathe, look at all that is Sacred around us. the beauty of even the simplest thing or thought. Time to contemplate before stepping back into life. By doing this you will rekindle the purpose and meaning that are needed at this time.
Praying Mantis teaches us to return to the core of who we are born as. To step on our path with thoughtful placement of how we will imprint ourselves into the world around us. To carefully consider how we will move forward in positives and be prepared to step quickly and decisively when we need to. It is time to listen to our intuition, do not push it away it has guided you through your life sometimes without us realizing. Trust what you are sensing, what you are feeling and move or stand accordingly to that inner voice.
Blessings to You All,
