Crocodile stops in today to tell us to armor up for at times today as words and actions may gear you towards stepping into battle mode. But instead we need to use them as teaching moments for ourselves and others. Constructive and Respectful moments. In today’s more than not hostile environment, people have forgotten how to be civil, polite, and above all not to take offense when someone states an opinion! We need to toughen up and learn to roll with it all. Pick and choose the battles of the day as not to be pulled down in the muck of negativity!

Personally like the Crocs I would prefer to sit out and bake in the sun and just be in the moment, how bout you guys?

The Crocodile is one of the oldest creatures and has been around for ions. The wisdom and survival skill it has taken for them to live through centuries of change is something we should look closely at as they are here to teach us as human as well. Crocodile teaches us sometimes we need to reach deep within to our primal energy, things that are instinctive to move through our paths. It speaks to us of our breathing patterns to take time to take that deep breath in order to bring balance to our minds and bodies.

Crocodile is a protector and keeper of All Knowledge. So it is time to tap into what it is we need in order to inspire, manifest and walk our dreams and ambitions. Remember patience and to allow yourself time to adapt to change that may show up in your life at this time. It is a time of growth and regeneration. It is time to expand and use what you instinctively know for emotional healing, for self and perhaps even to those that you may encounter in your days.

Crocodile speaks to knowing when to roll with what life throws at us, when to show patience, when to dig deep and when it is time to wallow in mud to allow healing and regeneration, transformation to bring about healing and a new part to our journeys.  Honor your soul’s journey, from other lifetimes into our current path and continuing on as we gather energies and knowledge moving forward in positives to experience life in many forms.

Blessings to All,

Through the Music… the Arts…the stories…”

Duck stops in today to share some wonderful insights about self with us All! No matter what the task is the Duck will find a way to get it done.

Sometimes life can be hard… sometimes we would rather just quit than do whatever it is that lies before us.  Sometimes it may be people that we are just tired of and want to give up on them….but today Duck says yes the bar may be set high but we need to gather that inner strength and simply push through it. We are not the only ones with issues, we are not free of making mistakes, that is the beauty of life… We ALL have lessons to learn and should remember we are not all the end all of any given situation. So Figure it out, wade through it, wing it, do whatever it takes to take the next step in your life!

Ducks are amazing and they teach us all about balance… and we need balance starting the week off… they are buoyant, they maneuver up and down, in and out and all the way around to meet the task, without complaint. They teach us to keep moving forward, pushing through all the struggles.

Duck is and has been one of my favorite teachers! It speaks to us of diving into your deepest emotions in order to reach a calmer and more peaceful state. They teach us about how to get past adversary and accomplish our goals, sometimes by looking outside of the box to do so. To never stop trying, dreaming, moving ahead with those dreams and goals that you envision. They bring with them the medicine of living for the moment, and living large, loving, laughing.

Think of times in your life, or situations when you aren’t sure how, when. or where… and when you say I just can’t, think of the Ducklings that follow their mama’s no matter how high the step..how deep the dive… how fast they have to run to keep up… they do so without hesitation.

So today…whatever it is that stands in front of you… Embrace the Duck within!

Desert Wolf/Coyote says today it is time to look past the little lies we tell ourselves and get to the real root of it all. time to step up and into honesty with ourselves…what a concept, right? Well we all do it and probably more often than we want to admit… but we tell ourselves little lies (or big ones) in order to make ourselves feel momentarily better. But when the light of day shows itself, that ugly little lie does not serve us in positives for the issues are still there, only since we have not dealt with them, they tend to fester underneath and cause stress, health issues, irritability and more negatives to pop up in our lives.

So today the Dessert Wolf says enough screwing around… just deal with it head on and be done with it. Once we do we will have a huge sigh of relief and begin to do what we need to, “Take Care of Ourselves” in a good and positive manner.

So get the window cleaner out and clean those mirrors off so you can get a good look at what needs to be taken care of inside your own hoops before the cracks in the glass start to take deeper root!

Desert Wolf also known as Coyote, as trickster, comes to us this day to share its wisdom’s, teaching us that it is sometimes a good thing to laugh at oneself in order to not get caught up in the pain that sometimes comes with life choices and lessons. It is about finding the balance of learning what life teaches and has to share, and when it is time to relax, enjoy and have some fun.

Desert Wolf teaches us to be stealth and observe what we need to see, opening our senses to see the bigger picture of a situation. They speak of using distraction to change outcomes to more positive ones, by utilizing intelligence and good common sense, which often many do not take the time to stop and remember. One of the most amazing skills they offer us is the use of voice and communication to let ourselves be heard, but to also warn that at times, when people use their voices it can be for hidden agenda’s that will not be in positive tones. So pay attention, listen closely so that you may understand and decipher what it is that is actually being said and stay adaptable to what must be done in the situation.

Desert Wolf tells us above all make sure we look at our own self, walk in positives not in deceptive or manipulative ways to get what you want. Look at what truly is motivating you, be honest with self and then stand in the Sacred Hoop to balance. Remembering what you do to respect self, will mirror to the world around you.

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.
