Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day the Moose


Moose what some view as gentle and cuddly are far from it! (Other than the stuffed toy ones that is!) They are true to themselves and set the example for their young. They are reminding us today to do just that, set the example… and instill in them the lessons and foundations that they need to have to move forward in life in a good and strong manner. We are responsible for each step and the chain reactions that we cause, no one else.

Our Elders and Ancestors have experienced much so we could be here… but not for us to hold onto the negatives they endured here as they walked among us, but rather so we would become stronger and wiser. Moose reminds us to remember the lessons so we do not have to relive them over and over again!

Moose reminds us of Life and the inner Strengths that each and everyone of us has deep down in our Soul’s. Moose is all about listening to our instinct and remaining in balance when using our strength, for sometimes situations call for gentle strength and at other times it calls on us to be fierce! They remind us to look to our Elders, our Wise ones in and around our Sacred Hoops for advice and perspective.

As large as Moose are they are still graceful in movement, stealth and quick when called for. That is a huge lesson for us to learn as we walk the Human. It isn’t always about being first, or always thinking that our way is the only way… it is about honoring and respecting all points of view and then choosing the most positive for you. Knowing our Soul’s true purpose is to walk in positives and experience life itself. Moose tells us to be proud of who we are as individuals and let no one tell you that you are less than.

Moose encourages us to be true to ourselves and who we are… Self Love is one of the hardest things to attain for many, so get your bootstraps, pull them up and walk proudly for who you are and remember it isn’t about ego, it isn’t about what others see in us… it is about balance and pride in the positives we are able to step forward in.

 


I am dedicated to Educating and sharing the lessons, teachings and culture I have been taught by my Elders and journey with the World. It is not enough merely to learn the ways of our Elders. We must honor those traditions by sharing and educating the World. Inspiring others …Inspiring our Youth. Through the Music… the Arts…the stories…

Blessings to you All,

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day the Hawk


Today the Hawk is here reminding us that we need to take a closer look at self and how we effect the things not only within our own lives, but in the world we live in. We Need to understand that only we give ourselves power, and that is controlled by what we allow to be factored into our awareness. If we allow the negatives from others in… then we in turn will allow it to eat away at our power, our Sacred Hoop causing unbalance. Which can lead to health issues, our ability to think clearly, to move forward in life in a good manner. If we allow and protect ourselves from those negative elements, we allow positives in and thus strengthen our Sacred Hoops. So as the Hawk shows itself to us today, sharing it’s insights… what will you choose to do? How will you move forward? Empower Yourself by keeping your focus on what is best for you!

Red Tail Hawk shows up to help us understand the meaning in ordinary experiences if open and become aware of our surroundings. The Red Tail Hawk is awakening our souls so that we may begin the journey of our spirituality, preparing us for those Life Lessons that will soon show up.

Red Tail Hawks are messengers of the between, sharing insights and knowledge extended to us from the Ancestors and the world of Spirit. They speak to us of looking from a different vantage point and thus giving us a broader view of any given situation, helping us to not only be aware that a message awaits us, but also helping us to understand those messages.

Red Tailed Hawks are sacred and as they enter our presence, we must honor them by opening our minds and keeping them sharp while we look for wisdom and answers as we walk the human.

The Red Tailed Hawk’s red tail feathers distinguish it from other hawks, and remember that it does not receive their red feathers until at a later point in life after it has matured and experienced life around it. These feathers must be earned. The color Red represents Power and Energy that will lie dormant until it is awakened by our Souls as they walk and journey life and honor its own Sacred Hoop.

2018 the year of “I AM”

“I am Dedicated to Educating and sharing the culture with the World. It is not enough merely to teach the ways of our Elders. We must honor those traditions by sharing and educating the World. Inspiring others …Inspiring our Youth. Through the Music… the Arts…the stories…”

Many Blessings to ya’ll

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day – the Butterfly


Today the Butterfly graces our day with messages from “Spirit” and lessons of migration and travel. Here at the lake the Butterfly has passed through heading for warmer climates and gentle breezes. It knows when to use it’s internal clock and instinct to guide it to where it needs to be. Sensing that there is a right time for everything, and everything occurs exactly when and where it is meant to.

Often we are in such a hurry that we miss lifes little nuances that it shares with us. Butterfly is reaching out to remind us to be aware of all that is happening around our Sacred Hoops for when we do, eyes wide open…we can see the Magic of it All!

The Butterfly is connected to the elemental Air. It represents to many cultures the story of Transformation. It teaches us how to shift, change and move with whatever life brings to our paths. This helps us to learn how to work through events and situations that we encounter in our lives so that we can move through changes in what appears to be effortless with grace allowing our Sacred Hoops to come into and stay balanced.

Butterfly shares with us the gift of understanding that we all have purpose, we are all part of a grander plan, that we all exist to complete the balance needed in the world we live in. Without each of us inputting our energies, our purposes… other things would not come to fruition. Such as the pollen that is collected when they land in a grouping of flowers, when they move from place to place they assist the species in continuing to exist. We too are much like the Butterfly, for without each of us to contribute our efforts, our knowledge sharing it with our young people, with each other… ideas and cultures would eventually cease to exist.

Butterfly teaches us that we need to quiet our minds to hear the echoes of our souls, to look around you and appreciate all that is Sacred. Teachings are also about how we move through our lives transforming and constantly changing. As we are seeded into the womb where we begin our earth journeys growing and nurturing to prepare to enter the world, we are much like the Butterfly in the cocoon until we emerge slowly transforming into what and who we are to become.

Throughout our lives this occurs as we move through the changes in our life. So don’t fight the changes, rather honor the process of it as your Soul grows and expands into all that it can be… the beautiful soul that is an intricate part of the Human Race.

So today take time and honor who you are, remembering that you and all that you are is meant to be for a purpose and wonderful reason…. Take a moment to breathe, take a moment to revel in becoming understanding that you are important to all life!

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day – the Horse


One of My Favorite Creatures the Horse drops from the deck and is all about sharing the fact we need to breathe and sense all our amazing surroundings that circle our lives. If we need to take an hour or a day, do so… it is time to reach and reground our very souls with Nature once again. Take a walk, a run, a ride out into nature to appreciate its’ beauty! Take a moment to breathe in All of what the Great Mother Earth shares with us each day! Then take another moment to understand we are the Keepers… the Caretakers of Her. Use that knowledge to help balance priorities in and around your own circle.

Horse brings with it the joy of wide open spaces and the ability to move freely about. It shares that it is time to open the barn doors and venture out into the world to experience what the Universe is offering for all of us if we are willing to open to it in positive ways. They help to guide us swiftly and sure footed to the next part of the path we are to reach.

However in doing so Horse also shares that the herd is important. The ones that are within our Sacred Hoop…family…friends… that they are there to assist us as we move forward and not stay in the old ways, with things that need to be let loose. Mend fences and move forward with everything, but truly mend them do not just go through the motions, for if you don’t take the time needed you will loose the positives that are part of that same Sacred Hoop.

Horse tells us to awaken our souls and honor our true self, our true dreams and aspirations. Feel the wind, feel the earth beneath you, feel the sun share its warmth and energy, feel the water as it nourishes and cleanses. Allow your senses to be in a place of all that is Sacred.

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day – the Red Fox


The Red Fox shows itself this day and brings with it several teachings.  Stealth and care will be needed for us as we look inside to find out they why’s of the issues that are plaguing us. To look deep and see why patterns are repeating and outcomes not changing. But Fox brings us the teachings of patience and truths that as we look deep enough and are honest with self, we can see the triggers and reset and reprogram them so we are not constantly repeating over and over the negatives that have come to evolve.

No one is perfect, but we need to also remember that in the imperfections we can find uniqueness and use that knowledge to set aside the “Victim” roles we have put in place as excuses for our misbehavior’s. Time to own it, release it and not allow it to define you. Fox reminds us to be flexible and adapt to life, to move through the ugly with confidence and respect for self and others.

It’s all about the little details, so pay attention to what is happening around you and with you. Be prepared for whatever pops up in your day and handle it with quiet ease. No need to stress over anything you have got this, because you have all you need to tackle whatever falls in your lap, so just get it done! Be watchful and mindful of others today as well, but not on the defensive… be ready to step in to lighten up someone else’s day by quietly doing something and adding the little extra push of help and positives that makes life a little easier to handle.

Whisperings from that little voice inside will guide you when you have questions, don’t try and second guess yourself, or worry about what others may think… Trust in yourself…have Faith in yourself! Today is gonna be a AWESOME DAY!

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.

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day – the Gull


The Gull…I can hear you all now, What the Heck would a Gull share? Well they share a lot actually and often we overlook and dismiss what they have to teach! But not today because today is a day of souls rejoicing, not as one may think… this is our Ancestors and Spirit swooping high and low to guide us to what needs to be acknowledged… to move us to positives.

Changes will occur today, that to some may be unsettling. Remember Faith and Trust in Creator God… life is a miracle in itself and should be celebrated, all aspects of it, birth to death and all the in between and after…

So pay attention today to all the little nuances that are shared with us all, add the knowledge to your tool kits so you have them as we celebrate our Sacred Hoops reaching for those dreams to manifest and make them a reality of positive!

The Gull is an amazing bird that most disregard as having purpose. Yet to understand the Gull is to respect and appreciate the bird as quite impressive. The Gull teaches us survival mode, which some situations may require us to deal with even in bad conditions or unpleasant ones in order to reach our true goals, our true dreams.

Gulls teach us to pay attention to Nature, and alert us to brewing storms that may be entering our lives. They are warriors sent by the Creator to cleanse negativity away allowing the positives to return and balance.

Gull talks about communication and how it is important to sometimes open those lines of communication in responsible ways. They also teach us to look deep at the magical world around us, for all we need is at our fingertips or deep within our souls to be able to move through in positives on our human walk.

Working with both the Elementals of Earth, Air and Water, they also teach us to be adaptable and sometimes we are called to behave and act differently under varied situations. This is okay and part of our learning how to communicate better with others and the world around us. Or perhaps they are showing us areas that we need to clean up in our own lives so that we can meet our full potential.

Spiritual and Totem Insights of the Day – the Owl


Today one of my Favorite Creatures shows itself in the cards…. the Owl. It comes in to remind us of the lesson that sometimes it takes a keen sense to study, listen, watch life around us in order to better serve it and ourselves in positives. Don’t be so quick to jump to conclusions about something before looking at it from all angles. In doing so, in putting ego aside…putting bravado and brashness aside… by taking time with whatever it is at the moment, we will not only learn something but we will have greater outcome.

So often in today’s society we rush to conclusion without even thinking, why? Of course because each of us knows it all and knows it better. Well Owl can sit patiently and by example teaches us that there is due diligence when it comes to knowledge and truths and in doing so we embrace the Wisdom’s of our Elders teachings… again the teachings arise in the cards and “Spirit”… Truth, Honesty, Wisdom, Love, Respect, Courage and Humility. There is a reason that this teaching comes up so often…it is because as Humans we have forgotten them and forgotten them often.

So Wise Up today… Pay attention, be Respectful and Patient and Loving…. and, and, and…

Owl brings both Magical and Spiritual energies with it’s presence… always Sacred to me, and to be revered by all. The Owl speaks to us of knowledge and answers that as Human we often are looking for.

Owl suggests to us that what we do not realize is often the answers we are the seeking, is actually the journey itself. If we will but slow down and open or eyes so that our vision can see the slightest movement, our ears can hear even the quietest whisper and our minds process the life we are indeed walking, we would actually come to understand that the process of our walk, our Life, our very path is the answer. Once we can accept that, we can then begin to balance our Sacred Hoops so that they resonate in positives allowing healing, joy, acceptance, happiness over the fact that we ARE. That we CAN… and bring our dreams into reality.

The Owl shares with us the Great Mystery and all that is to be understood in life as we walk the human path. Teaching us to be open and see with wonderment the life that is around us, interacting with us, sharing with us, part of us, even in the smallest of ways. In return showing us how we can impact it all in return. To keep our eyes open in even in what we may perceive as dark times, for that glimmer of hope and light to shine through.

Remember to fly beyond and look at the larger picture so better to plan ahead how to approach situations, people or the journey itself. It teaches us to use our intuition and deep connections with wisdom that has been seeded deep within our souls.

If he has showed up in your life today… perhaps you need to look closer for the hidden truths.

Blessings to You All,
