Today the 7th card to face upward was the Winged Ones again! So as today progresses we are to be aware of the world around us, so we can learn to push the negative surroundings away from us. We have the ability we simply need to make the conscious choice. The fact that this card shows up once more so quickly is that the world is suffering, the planet, the creatures and even humans. The lines between dark and light have never been so distinct in our lifetimes. We need to not dismiss the dark negatives, rather we need to balance them with the light we all carry. By doing so we will be able to walk the line so to speak and control how we react to various situations.
Bear walks through today is the seventh card to guide us along with the Ancestors towards more positive goals and enrichments. Dig deep kids …dig deep and prepare for the upcoming months.
There is so much anger in the world but we need to rise above all of that and stand in our own power to allow others to see there are better ways of behaving. Don’t add negatives for it will be returned to us, and we need people who can command a better way of life, a better way for the people of the world to live and be. Take care of self and those you hold in your sacred space, be brave and step out of the box when you see injustice or bad behavior. It is calling out for leaders of peace and calm. Helping each other and understanding although we are all different we all also have our place in lifes tapestry. Learn to Love better, care more and understand each other better.
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’s are also 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.

Rabbit shows up in the cards today to remind us although we should not feed our fears they should be lessons in motivation … of things to overcome and obstacles to push through or to be smart enough to figure out how to go around. This is key today as there may be some storms on the horizon! But because we have weathered many storms in our walks, we have the knowledge on how to maneuver through it all safely with positive outcomes.
Rabbit reminds us all to remember we need to nurture ourselves in order to allow our Spiritual growth to occur. It shares with us that we have all the tools needed inside of us if we just stop for a moment to collect ourselves and reach into that toolkit we all carry. By stopping for that moment and listening to that inner voice, it will give us a chance to strengthen our plans that are in motion, or review the ones we are contemplating.
Rabbit tells us not to be so quick to jump to conclusions, rather look at the larger picture and then move quickly as your instinct guides you rather than allowing fear to move you forward. Pursue your dreams, your goals with a little more adaptability, network with friends and family to help you get the results that are desired.
They also represent fertility, but of course it is up to us to make sure that that fertility shows up as positives such as creativeness, happiness, success and not negatives that we hold onto that eventually turn into fear, anger, bitterness, depression, illnesses.
Rabbitteaches that defending ourselves doesn’t always mean fighting back; it can also be accomplished by listening to what is happening in and around our Sacred Hoops and then using our intuition for the best possible outcome.
Rabbit has a short life so it also reminds us to take advantage of every waking moment for all life is Sacred. Don’t get stuck on the little things in life or life around you will pass by in a blink of an eye and you will have missed the journey.

Today the Horse shows itself in the 7th spot and it is here to remind us to take time to kick our heals up a bit and dance. Life is meant to be enjoyed and with all the negativity that is floating around the world these days we often forget to do just that Dance!
So Horse asks us why not Dance? Why not feel the joy that surrounds us… for in doing so it will ripple outwards and others will feel it and perhaps join the Dance!….Life is a Dance, it has rhythm, it can be bold or gentle… it can be filled with passion or sadness. So today take some time to figure out what the Dance is for you right now and allow the emotions to flow from you allowing more positive notes to join 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 Circle…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.

Today the focus should be on you! Elephant states that the energy today will lead you to believe that you are not good enough, doubts will seep in like flood waters…but it simply needs to be pushed out of your mind. Stay positive you have got this and nothing should be allowed to stand in your way of achieving the positives you are looking to accomplish today!
If there ever was a day to own it Elephant says today is that day! Our tool kits and life accomplishments make us more than capable… we simply have to believe in ourselves! So let’s get it done today!
The Elephant to remind all of us how to define family. Family is often more than merely born into or shared genetics. And it is time to acknowledge our spiritual families and people that mean the most to us. it is time to look at self and remember where our loyalty should lie, who it is that supports us and is there effortlessly. It is time to get in touch with our inner child and our inner elder, for we have been taught much but due to the chaos of days, it has been often set aside.
So Elephant tells us to honor relationships, the ones that have imprinted on our souls… the ones we wish we coulda, shoulda, woulda… said or shown gratitude for and throw some tobacco, a prayer to the Sacred Winds for what was not. Balance the debt even if it is in what seems like a small way.
Elephant brings with it determination and loyalty that are needed to walk through our human. Not to give up easily for if we stay the course smartly, our goals will be met. Elephant reminds us all we must look after ourselves first before can help others, and to follow our instincts they will show us where we need to go and what we need to nourish within our souls.
Family is an important aspect and to remember to focus on the very young and our Elders, it is our duty to care for both. Loyalty is another trait the Elephant brings out in us, reminding us ever so gently that sometimes we need to remain loyal in spite of difficult circumstances in all situations, for all will be made clear as we move ahead in positive steps.
Elephant communicates with its family intuitively and suggests that there is a memory that is being held on to tightly that needs to be let go, let go of the past, it is what has assisted us to this point, but needs to remain in the past.
Elephant is reminding us about gentleness, commitment, and communication for ourselves and all relationships in and about our own Sacred Hoops. That all of it is powerful medicine much needed as it helps us to keep relationships healthy.

Today the Lion steps in and says Own it! If you are not meeting your potential take a breath to figure it out, stop pointing in other directions for missteps and take responsibility for your own choices! Empower yourself that we are all human and have flaws, but in understanding those scars and flaws we can make ourselves stronger and more powerful to make better choices.
Lion says accept those imperfections because in doing so we understand that we are unique and important in Life. That we all matter…we all have an important part to play in the story, the journey. So grab that spark from inside and make it grow bigger, stronger and brighter… and when you do, let the world see it!
Lions bring reminders of inner strength, assertiveness and personal power to the table. They try and warn us to also take hold and control the darker side and bring it to balance so that anger and aggression doesn’t spill over and push us to people or places we do not need to be.
Lions also will make itself known in order to warn about challenges and obstacles that may arise in our lives. Guiding us so that we may be able to deal and cope with courage and insight. Reminding you to walk with self-confidence and take ownership of your personal power. Lions show us that we need to utilize our own strength, courage and assertiveness to get ahead of the situation.
Lions also teach us that we can indeed be leaders but have to be careful not to dominate everything in our relationships at home or work. Find a balance that works and things will be healthier and more positive for you and those in your Sacred Circles. Just remember to temper any anger or negative feelings that arise…
Lionsthe embodiment of Strength …Courage… and Empowerment!

Today the Honey Bee stops in the 7th spot to remind us to keep on pace and listen to our inner voices in order to stay in that positive place. Often times outside chatter of the world fills our heads and causes us to loose our pace of normalcy, because of that we need to slow down our selves in order to hear our own rhythm…To not be affected by the outside influences that throw us off track.
It is so easy to get caught up in other things than what we should be focusing on… so the Honey Bee shares with us that we will remain productive and in control by simply shutting the outside off today. So focus on positives and keep on task.
The Honey Bee serves a very specific purpose in life, it’s job is to pollinate plants and collect nectar to make Honey. It is what drives the continued life cycle of all the plants we see and use in our daily lives. It has been said that Bees are so important to our ecosystem that if they become extinct, humans would cease to exist as well soon afterward.
Honey Bee reminds us to continue to be (no pun intended) productive in our lives while at the same time remembering to enjoy the results of all our hard work. Bees should not be able to fly for their tiny bodies are not designed aerodynamically, yet they don’t dwell on it rather they just DO. Bees also teach us about community. As they move from plant to plant, they help to continue the life cycle.
Honey Bee teaches balance with our lives, even though they are amazing workers; they also slow down to enjoy life. Reminding us that otherwise life’s purpose holds no meaning.
“Across the country and the world, many pollinators are in decline or at risk of extinction. It’s a serious issue because forests, prairies, meadows, wetlands, seashores and croplands all depend on a diverse and healthy pollinator community to thrive. Globally, nearly 85 percent of all flowering plants require help from animals to produce seeds and fruit. Without them, neither humans nor wildlife would have as much to eat and as a result the planet’s biodiversity would plummet.” ~ Gene Brandi, Bee Keeper
We need to be mindful of the Bee’s and assist them in thriving and continuing their work. We need to plant gardens, flowers that will assist the process for all the Creatures of the Great Mother Earth. WE need to become the Caretakers we are meant to be, and stop destroying the very ground we live upon.
I am Dedicated to Educating and sharing 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 you All
