Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day – the Parrot


Who’s your leeeeetttle` friend? Well it is the Parrot that shows it’s face to us today to teach us a few lessons for the day! The first is be careful of your words… once they have been released into the world they will forever be echoed… so make sure you say what you mean and that they are words that will leave positive imprints on those that hear, feel and bear witness to them.

The second thing Parrot want us to remember is that actions, deeds, words are mimicked by those around you. What we often fail to remember is that we are responsible for setting the tone or mood for the world around us. If we are confident and pleasant… things will reflect that in our daily walks. If we are negative and bitter our world becomes shaded and chaotic… full of negatives that spread like a disease. So be mindful of the imprints we all leave on the world around us today, and be a more positive part of it not only for yourself but for others as well.

Parrot assists us in seeing that possibilities are endless as we walk the human. Sharing with us that we need to open ourselves up and communicate with the world around us. The Parrot teaches us to look at situations and opinions that are different than yours. It is all about hearing what we are listening to so that we may learn what we can accomplish, what we are capable of. To go outside of our boundaries of what we may right now consider normal. Because different, extraordinary may just be our New Normal!

Parrot brings us reminders about what is in the power of Father Sun and the healing energy that is offered. They share with us the understanding that will help balance and find harmony with all life around us. Aligning our Sacred Hoops with the pure joy and magic of all things possible.

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day – the Ant


Well the Ant has decided to step in today again…tenacious little guys they are. At first I thought hmmmm perhaps I did not shuffle them well enough, so I shuffled again and 7th card was again the Ant. So I thought wow that is so odd…so I thought I wonder if… and yup you guessed it three more times I shuffled and three more times the 7th card that was turned over was the Ant! So I am guessing the Ant wants to be heard this fine Monday of March!

And Tenacious is what I am being told we need to be today, the energy is sorta all over the place. Up, Down and all around… so grab on to something solid and tie yourself off cause I think this day is gonna get to the best of us. But persevere we will for we will have no choice but to steer the course we are put on today and make the best of it. So yup this little ole’ Ant is giving us a heads up for the day for sure! Not sure about your day thus far…but totally makes sense around here, even if we have to do it over and over til we get it right!

The Ant teaches us that all good things come in time as we walk life in positives, holding to our truths, convictions in order to manifest our dreams into realtime. They also share through example how teamwork and clear focus can get the job done. Look at how tiny they are, yet working diligently and with purpose they always manage how to overcome the obstacles that are often set on their paths.

They also talk to us about community and working together to build a better being. Community is important, so perhaps this card is shown today for the fact we all need to remember that we all impact life and community just by being. So our actions can speak volumes, so choose to think before moving ahead in order to walk in positives for the best outcome.

The Ant can move mountains when it chooses to do so. They always have the eye on the prize so to speak. This is how we must think at times to get things done., to push through things that are difficult and at times weigh us down. We must call on that inner strength, and just simply get it done. It doesn’t matter what others think about us, we do not need to answer to their expectations… we simply need to believe and have faith that the world around us will have our backs, remembering that we are all born with everything we need in life to survive and live, we just have to open to the possibility of it all.

Blessings to All!

Spiritual and Totem Insights of the Day – the Racoon


Racoon comes in today …(fitting as it is a Friday and the beginning of a weekend) telling us that we have worked hard all week so we need to set aside the grindstone just a bit and remember or playful side. Take some time out for it is long deserved and Dance under the Full Moon This night and soak up all that amazing and recharging energy! But as you do this, take some time to examine what the Racoon also teaches us about our Daily life and how we need to look at things from All sides before casting Judgements.

Racoon is here to share that sometimes hiding behind the mask instead of engaging with life doesn’t win us points! Sometimes we need to utilize the tools that we have gathered here and there to obtain the goal we are seeking. That we need to be a champion of our own cause today! Not letting everyone else distract us from the task at hand.

Racoon teaches us to re-connect with our inner warrior, to become both provider and protector for ourselves and possibly others within our Sacred Hoop. However while assisting others, Racoon teaches us that we must in this process, learn to do this in a way that does not make those you are helping become dependent on your help. When dealing with issues the Racoon leaves no stone unturned. Patiently and diligently seek the solution by taking the time needed to observe the whole picture, both the seen and the unseen to find a positive solution.

Racoon’s are also the masters of curiosity, adaptability, resourcefulness, masks or illusion. They also speak of hiding behind and not being open an honest with your self. Learn to be more open and accept the gifts being offered to you right now by the universe. Be more versatile and watch for opportunity by being more aware of your surroundings and what is happening in and around your own Sacred Hoop.

Racoon teaches us that as human we wear many masks in life and sometimes feel the need to hide our true self as protection or to hide from the reality of a situation. Just remember it is okay to do that for a short time, but do not get lost behind that mask, for we all have purpose, we all have meaning in this walk we are on.

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day the Tiger


Tiger drops in for a visit this day and speaks to us of gathering strength for the upcoming storms that will play out in our lives as we walk our Human. Not all things that we experience in our lifetimes are all “Raindrops and Roses” as the song suggests, but rather we are challenged and given the lessons of overcoming some of the most monumental obstacles to the small everyday things that irritate the crap out of us. It’s all about the process.

Often times when we are faced with these events we can even hear ourselves looking back in review saying …coulda …shoulda …woulda… so make each moment of the now matter… make every second count in positives so that there will not be the day when we say those very words. Learn to care for self in better ways, healthier ways… so that some of our human issues do not creep in through the cracks and degrade the gift of life that we have been given. make no mistake…each and every one of our lives, whether we are here for a short time or for many years… is a very special gift that houses our souls as they walk the journey here on earth. So pay attention to what the Tiger teaches us today and all days… and embrace it as part of you. you will not regret it in the least.

Tiger teaches us to utilize persistence and patience as we look to manifesting our dreams and goals. By walking with the right steps, in positive and meaningful ways we will accomplish what we have set out to do or be. They show us that through honoring the power we all hold within and utilizing that energy and respect… All things are possible and what the world has to share is limitless. Use your instincts, emotion and feelings to help guide you. Rely on what the inner voice the Tiger within is sharing with you…

Tiger teaches us that we have personal strength that we can tap in to. It is that primal force that we are all born with, that will show us the way to step into and through situations with confidence enabling us to walk over the obstacles we may face. Tiger spirit will help us to overcome fears we may be holding onto, teaching us how to release them and turn them into positives. Temper the anger, control the fear thus achieving a balance.

Tiger shares Prowess and walks into our lives when we need to stand in our own truths with grace and respect, but know with that should be the balance of respect returned. We are all connected, we all imprint, so watch how words flow and actions play out for they in turn will open more doors of positives for you if executed in proper fashion.

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day – the Lizard


Wow so today is about being real as the Lizard shows itself in the spread today!…  Being real with ourselves and others. No More pretending or running away from your emotions, your feelings. Take stock in them, embrace them so that you can understand yourself on a deeper level. Then ACCEPT what is shown to you. Be real with yourself and each other. Relationships with ourselves or others is work, everything is constantly changing and evolving… hopefully into positives. But in order for that to happen we have to work for it. Hey it’s worth it…you are worth it… so remember that!

Learn to be real with it, not hiding behind what you think people want to see in order to care or love you. If they love, care and respect you, they will work with you and accept your flaws with your best qualities. If it feels they are not then release them or the situation. Remember to make sure it is not your own imaginations and ego stepping into play before you do. For it may just be that and you need to be the one to release the self fears and doubts, for the positives have been there right in front of you all the while.

Lizard steps up to share with us that we may be repeating old cycles, recreating things because we have been doing them so long, it feels more natural that stepping into something new or opening the doors to something that is unknown. It tells us although we are able to face our fears, we often do not want to deal with them.

Lizard also shares truths about “EGO”, that often as human we are ruled by it. So what may be needed at the moment is to take a step back and let out hearts take over. Our “EGO” is often all to ready to step in and rule, so take time to really look deep within what is resonating with our hearts before making decisions or saying something we may regret.

Lizard shares that we are able to use all our “senses” as they were given to us at birth, rely on them, hone them and watch for situations that may not serve us and then remove ourselves from them or to step into the positive ones we need to move with. It is time to awaken what lies beneath, the unconscious mind that has been hiding things we have not wanted to deal with. Lizard will allow us to move them to the forefront so we can process through them and get rid of what is no longer needed and place us back to reality. We are all human, we are all flawed and the Lizard teaches us it is ok to be this way. Release as they release a tail, what needs to be let go, then move ahead and regrow in more positive ways.

Spiritual and Totem Insight for the Day – the Snake


Today is about Snake Medicine and learning to balance it within our lives. So what does that mean to us as human? Well for today to speaks to making our way through the day by depending on all our senses and understanding that this movement is part of our human experience. To make sure we use our time wisely and not waste it on frivolous negativity. Things happen for a reason and it is up to each of us to decide how it impacts and imprints on our lives.

Snake Is a difficult teacher at times, and one that is not easy to master. Lessons that Snake brings with it are of life cycles and change, remembering as we grow we shed and transform into new energies and new experiences. Snake also teaches us about poison and that we need to be able to rid ourselves of the toxins can be placed within our Sacred Hoops. Don’t let the poisons kill us or dim our light that resides within. At times the poison and toxins can play games with our thoughts if we allow them to, so mastering what is real and what is illusion can often contribute to negativity and clouding of ones judgement. Make sure to take a breath, a beat… before stepping into a place of no return. Keep it all in perspective and balance. Once you can accomplish this, balance will return and be maintained.

Snake can be a hard teacher. His lessons involve a transmutation of the cycle of life, death and rebirth. Snake symbolizes this cycle with the shedding of his skin. We learn to the whole energy of life, the cosmic consciousness and have the willingness to experience anything without resistance. It is also about the poisons that we might take in. Those poisons can be eaten or ingested in some way but they also may be integrated into our lives. The goal is to not let the poisons taint our body or spirit.

Since Snakes can shed they teach us about the levels of our human, of our spirituality, our experiences. It is time to seek our inner knowledge before moving ahead with decisions. It is time to coil and go within to make sure we are well prepared before we strike out.

Snake also reminds us as it makes its way across the Great Mother Earth, to ground ourselves, to use our energy wisely and not to rely on primal instincts of lashing out. For at times it is more empowering to hold back and use that knowledge that energy in wise ways. At other times it is best to strike and seize the moment with a precision and quickness. Snakes often retreat long before biting defensively because they sense that it may cause consequences/damage to others and drain you of healing energy.

Snake is also very old and powerful healing medicine. Once harnessed, Snake will help you to position yourself carefully so that you will trust your gut when making important decisions.

Spiritual and Totem insights for the Day – the Dove


The Dove shows up this day to remind us to revel in the Divine Soul that you are and let your light shine for the World to see! Today is about allowing your Spirit to shine, to sing, to dance, to be no matter what steps on the path in front of you. have Faith in who you are, who you will become as you walk this continued journey of Human. It is not time to sit idle and hide in shadow, it is time to rejoice in the unique individual that you are. The individual that the Creator, the Ancestors and all those that have walked with and before love, guide and care for unconditionally as we continue our walks here on the Great Mother earth.

As we walk our Human we often are faced with troubling things, troubling times…but we need to restore our Faith that all things are for reason, and that Creator has not forgotten us, but is there with the aid of those before us…guiding us and helping us to transition through the negatives that life throws our way and helps us to become stronger because of it. It is easier at times to feed our fears and insecurities during the trying times we live in. A place in time that there is so many negatives that seem to be growing and taking root among people of all cultures and creeds, but we must hold fast for we are the change, we will overcome, we will make differences…even if it takes us one moment at a time. How you ask? Because Faith in the Creator, in ourselves, in each other will help us get there!

Dove teaches us when it is time to soar to new heights by using the element of air, “the wind beneath your wings”. That we must trust in the Universe, in Creator God for they are there supporting us, assisting us, but they will not choose or do the work for us. That nothing will prevent us from attaining our goals except ourselves. So we need to Trust and have Faith in all that is Sacred has purpose, has reason.

Dove reminds us to stop and breathe in the 7 Sacred breathes, letting go of the inner storms that are stirring and tap into the inner peace that can be found deep in our very souls. That what we are seeing is the chaos of the storm, and that after the storm is calm and beauty, for what we are seeking to attain is attainable and will be if we stay strong and show patience with the situation. They also represent peaceful resolutions can be found. They also represent travel time is approaching, perhaps in meditative state or in a physical sense.

Many Blessings to You ALl…

May the Divine Spirit reach You and fill your being with Love and Joy of the Day…
