June 8 2016 Totem Insights of the Day – the Owl

card 22 Owl 1122
“For those that seek me, I am here… I will bring clarity even to the darkest of night. See me and I will share the Wisdom and knowledge that you seek on this day and all others. You need not fear me for I am you and you are me, we are kin as all things Sacred are related. One must remember that we are never alone for all life that surrounds us is part of the great circle, ever turning …ever evolving…”

“I am here to teach you that if we learn to open and look beyond our own realities, we will become open to seeing that All things are possible. that we connect beyond the mere physical worlds. For I am also a Gatekeeper of all things spiritual, the here…the in-between and dimensional space. Learn to expand your consciousness and all needs can be met.”  ~ Owl

Owl brings both Magical and Spiritual with it’s presence. always Sacred to me, and to be revered by all.  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.

June 3 2016 totem Insight of the Day – Turtle

card 4 turtle 1122
Turtle tunes in this day to remind us to stay the course as we walk our path. It is not time to get side tracked, it is time to simply do the work. Don’t make excuses, or find ways to dawdle and procrastinate… simply get done what needs to be done. By doing so you exude integrity and honor, you feed the Spiritual, the Physical and keep in tune with your world that is within and out of your Sacred Hoop…

Turtle teaches us that we need to remember to walk our paths slow and steady with determination, for if we do our goals will surely be met. They remind us that sometimes it is best to walk on solid ground strong and precise with each step, and at other times it is better to dive into the waters and swim with the current allowing life to assist us in that forward motion.

Turtle helps us to ground reminding us that slowing down and pacing each step will help us build confidence for as we walk at this pace, we will see more of what is being shared with us by the world around us… knowledge of the “Old Ones”. Slowing our pace, calming our breath, listening to our heartbeat, centering our spirit so that we are in balance and sync with the rest of our world.

Turtles remind us that what we need is provided for us, that we need to remember the beginning, the simple and honor all that is Sacred, for it is part of who we all are. Be humble, grateful and make the most of what we have and what we are offered.

Happy Friday Ya’ll!!!!

May 31 2016 Totem Insights for the Day – Butterfly

card 27 butterfly 1122
Transform the negatives into positives! That is the message that the Butterfly brings us today. It is easier to sit and wallow in the muck than it is to move from it, yet that is what we must do. Give ourselves that little extra push today to get moving in the right direction. Sure sometimes it is hard, but you will find that if you can think it …you can accomplish it. so go ahead and push…you will be glad at the end of your day that you did…after all time is a gift so make each and every moment of it yours and put your mark on the world!

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!

May 26, 2016 totem Insights for the Day – Badger

BADGER1122card 61
Badger shows up today to remind us that we all must trust in our abilities utilize them to take on challenges that show up in our journeys. It is time to step away from our hiding places we have created and show the world what we are made of. Remember what is important to us and who we are as unique individuals that have a place in this world.  The message is loud and clear… walk your own path to the beat of your own drum. Have faith in yourself and your talents and abilities. Know that you handle any challenge that shows up. Who cares what others say. Come out from hiding and start taking names and numbers.

Aggressiveness and the willingness to fight for what you want in this life and that is what Badger has to teach us. Just how to temper it and apply the right kid of pressure when needed and when to make a stand.

Badger teaches us to use our healing abilities to push forward in positives in life and to aggressively move the obstacles that are in our way even if we are the ones that have placed them there.

May 24 2016 Totem Insight for the Day – Horse

card 20 Horse 1122
Today the Horse comes to share some insights with us all. reminding us to knock the gate open, push through the boundaries that we have set up around us in order to feel safe. Whether we fenced ourselves in due to pain and hurtful things the world laid at our feet or not…it is time to knock down those fences in order to let positives reach us once again. It is so much easier to lock ourselves up when pain and conflict enter our lives, but in doing so we create a pattern or cycle, and by closing ourselves off we also keep the negatives in with out a way to be released. That will throw anyone off balance. So we must allow our faces to feel sunlight once again, breathe in the fresh air… and begin again to move forward.  Don’t allow yourself to stagnate, open to the positive possibilities that are out there and invite them in!

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.

April 26 2016 Totem Insights for the Day – Bear

card 24 bear 1122
Today Bear steps up this day to remind us to choose words and actions wisely. Stop being so quick to judge others without walking in their steps, or understanding what is real and what is illusion. Often as we walk our paths we get lost in the negativity of others, or perhaps it is because we are not doing what we are meant to do and seeing that others are walking their truths it triggers jealousy and other negatives. So you lash out… and it is easy to do, we have all done it at one time or another. But what we fail to recognize or consider what we say or do… often causes harm or sends out negatives to a world that already has enough. So today as the Bear stands and roars for all to hear… perhaps stop and worry about your life, your actions, your words … and begin work on your own issues and faults to better balance your own hoops.

Bear is all about fertility (creative and manifestation), instinct, protection and solitude. Those that walk with Bear are often somewhat reclusive requiring a great deal of personal space to renew and create. Bear people will often “disconnect” for awhile as they pursue projects becoming deeply involved in what they are working on. Deeply protective and territorial, Bear also is extremely loyal and dependable.

Bear teaches us when healing of any sort is needed to use that time for introspective work in order to grow Spiritually, Emotionally, Mentally and find answers to problems within yourself. Travel deep into your soul find the purpose in your own path and journey and walk ahead in positive steps.

Bear shares with us that in this time hibernation is not only good but needed, yet respect our natural hibernation cycle and remember to reawaken in the spring, in doing so awaken the potential within ourselves and the power of our unconscious mind.

Bear teaches us there is a time for playfulness and a time to be assertive, and perhaps a time for both in balance.

April 22 2016 Totem Insights for the Day – Fox with bear Medicinewalker

card 35 Red Fox 1122
Fox tells us today to tap into your Intuition…and listen to the voice within. It will assist you through your day avoiding the negatives of your world, but only if you trust and listen to it. Often we are so in a hurry, that even when the hair stands up on our necks or the little bell rings in our minds, we push past them. Then after the fact…we say man if we had only done what we heard from inside. Those little alarm warnings aren’t wrong… it is the universe, the Ancestors, our guides… Creator God telling us to tread lightly for a reason. We ask for help all the time, even pray for it… and most of the time we dismiss those little inklings away as coincidence, or tell ourselves we are crazy… START listening… it happens for a reason right?

We all want good things, the best to happen for ourselves and often others… so then why is it we don;t LISTEN? So today, open the channels to receive what is offered as help, guidance and insights. take it to heart and trust your guts!

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.
