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 Wolfteaches 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.

The Ancestors, those that have walked before us, those that have shed tears, sweat and blood to enable us to be who we are today. Ancestors who guide us from the beyond, who left lessons and imprints on this earth so that we wouldn’t have to repeat them in order to learn them here in the now, the today. Why is it then we often find ourselves ignoring what was left for us, forgetting the core values that they taught us? Is it we are so caught up in the chaos of the world around us that we miss step and fall in to the everyday negativity that whirls around us like a tornado from the movie “Wizard of Oz”?
Perhaps it is time to slow down, take an accounting of all that is to be and held Sacred within ourselves and in our lives, recalling our Ancestors and all the work they have done over time for each and every one of us. Go back to the root of it all, our core values… the Seven Grandfather Teachings of, Respect, Humility, Truth, Courage, Honesty, Wisdom and Love. (Among the Anishinaabe people, the Teachings of the Seven Grandfathers, also known simply as either the Seven Teachings or Seven Grandfathers, is a set of teachings on human conduct towards others.)
That little voice in our heads, the tingle we may feel as we walk through our days, that knowing we have and stop for a second to say hmmm how did I know that? All little ways that our Ancestorsreach out to us through time /no time itself to assist and guide us as we walk our human. Yes we are not going crazy; we are simply tapping into lessons and teachings of long ago… things that resonate to the very core of our souls as truths and understandings.
So what does this a;; have to do with today you are thinking? Well it has everything to do with today, for as we move forward…as we take each step… with each thought and action we take… we must remember we too are imprinting and leaving our own mark on the world. One day the people from tribes of the future will look back on us as the Ancestors, so let us make sure when they do they are thanking us.
If we make that conscious effort to stay in positives within and outside our own Sacred Hoops… perhaps we can influence positive change and movement that will echo through time/no time and strengthen the basic teachings, the very foundations which we come from. Whether you are Baptist, Buddhist, Aboriginal, Islamic, Born Again, Catholic, or Jew… whether you are gay, heterosexual, yellow, black, brown or white… poor or rich, young or old… we all imprint, we all can choose to promote positive over negatives.
So today choose to honor our Ancestors as they support us… Today share a story from old times gone by so they are not lost. Today stop and say a prayer or even simply whisper a quiet thank you for all they have done for us in order to make the world a better place for each and every one of us. Honor the work.. the sacrifice… and all they contributed as they walked the human before us.
Let us join spiritual hands to offer prayer.
I call to the sacred winds…to carry my words
To the Grandmothers and Grandfathers of the North, the south, the east, the west, Above …below and within…
I call to the sacred winds to carry my words to the Winged ones…the Four Leggeds…the Plant People…the Crystal Keepers, the Thunder Beings, the Angelic Realm…Mother Mary and Magdalene…my Brother Christ and all the nations that love us.
I thank you for all the many blessings that you have shared with us today and beyond and I ask that you hear our prayers whether spoken our held silently within our hearts.
Today I ask that you hear our prayers as we stand humbly before you, small and human.
Help us to remember we are all but a tiny part of a great universe, that we are all connected as one…
Bring us the strength we need to walk our paths without ego or judgment…
Allow our hearts to hear what our ears are missing
Teach us how to allow forgiveness for others and ourselves
Fill our being with the unconditional love that you so freely offer all.
I call that we be reminded we are all no better than or less than one another.
Guide us through our days, to help us with our humanness…that we learn to reconnect with others in a gentle and positive way. Offering smiles when they are needed without thought, shoulders or ears to help ease another…and words that will uplift or soothe.
Keep our children safe and strong in this troubled world… I ask that on this day and days to come…guidance is shared with our children to help them as they walk their paths. Help open their eyes so they can learn and see the right way of things, teach them to respect all life no matter how small, open their ears and minds so that they may understand things that are being taught to them in a good and gentle manner…open their hearts so that when the harshness of the world falls at their feet, they can cope and handle it with compassion and understanding.
I ask that today and all days ahead, that we remember to walk with our Ancestors, honoring them and all they sacrificed for us. Showing them and the world that in doing so we understand the strong foundations that were taught to us, to assist ourselves, our families and friends and all those in the worlds we live in to also be strong examples of goodness and light.
I thank all those who have walked with us and answer our calls…this day and in days to come…and honor you …
May it Be Said… May it Be So!
So my wish to you all today is for all of us to connect to our roots, the seemingly long forgotten teachings of our basic foundations, to shore them up, bring about restoration for Humanity and compassion again. To understand that if we believe in it strongly enough with Love we can heal and balance again.
Blessings One and All! ~bear Medicinewalker

The Loon shows itself today speaking about how it is time to let our voices be heard on ALL levels. When working towards our goals, adding positives to the world, sometimes it is difficult to get our voice heard above the chaotic world we live in. The noise level of the mundane and out of tune unbalanced world that we live in can sometimes overshadow what is needed to be heard for us to move forward. It all has cause and effect, so when you send your voice out into the Universe, dig deep into your souls for purpose before releasing its story and tone. Make it be heard, draw attention to the melody and story, after all it is meant to resonate with the Universe to bring about the highest good for the strongest walk as we travel the Human… so make it count, make it heard.
The haunting song of the Looncalls out to us speaking to us of our Dreams, Wants and Desires… the things that we want to happen or become. They reach out to speak to our higher self. To tell us it is time to release all we have wished for so that they may open to a new reality.
They remind us to understand that often we are being taught while in dream state, or perhaps even visited by our Guides, Spirit and/or Loved Ones that have continued on a journey past the mere physical. We need to be open to what they are sharing with us, for they are assisting us in walking the human in a more positive way and getting us through stress and everyday life obstacles.
Looncalls through the reality and illusion of time as we know it. Mystically being able to conjure spirit and energy with their very voice will help you to awaken to possibilities that you may not have noticed and inspire your creativity. It’s time to allow the boundaries we have placed on our minds to fall away and understand that the cosmic consciousness is bigger than just one single thought… one single act…one single being…
So open to the manifestations you are trying to make happen and realize the only thing that stops us from reaching our goals is the boundaries and limits we place on self. Open to being the best incarnation of you that can be… grow, learn, live, love and expand with each new experience. Allow your soul’s very essence to reach beyond what we can see with our conscious mind and expand into all that is Sacred….
“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…”
Blessings to All!

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.

“Join Me as I continue the Sacred Hoop Project throughout this Year 2018…the year of “I Am” Blessings to You All,
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.
So we All see them at one time or another… perhaps in times of need we look for signs that we can push forward through whatever it is that is going on at the time. Perhaps it is reassurance that loved ones that have transitioned are reaching out from the beyond telling us they are near and watching over us. Perhaps even if you believe in Angels it is our Guardians of the Heavens inspiring us to be and do. Whatever those numbers represent many of us both see and accept them as signs from beyond time. Sometimes those numbers even seem to follow you everywhere.
The Numbers can change or can stay the same your entire life. Our very thoughts, goals and needs may even direct them to us. It seems to work alongside the law of attraction as a way to empower each of us to be the best “I Am” that we can be… if we only will listen.
For me it has occurred so many times within my own life I can not deny their timing and influence. They remind us of what needs to happen, that the Universe, God Creator and Our Guides, Loved Ones that have transitioned before us are all watching over us, assisting us and whispering in our mind to help us achieve and stay on the path of positive outcomes. There is no exact science to this, one either believes or doesn’t… But I feel that if we have a little faith and belief it can move Mountains… so why not allow these numbers to add positives to our lives?
So what do some of these Numbers mean? Well again there is no exact science or right or wrong… it is only human Faith, Understanding and Beliefs that give us some of the following explanations. I wonder at times if Einstein were still alive what would he have to say, or perhaps he is one of those influences guiding us all from the other side! Whatever the answer is… I beleive we all need a little Faith to make it through the troubling times we are in.
Numbers and Sequences….as I was taught.
Birthdates are often thought to be a loved one letting us know they are well and keeping an eye on you. A simple yet effective way they can communicate with all of us. Whether it is their Birth or Death date or our own Birthdate… it can prove to be a powerful message for sure when receiving this sign.
The Number 1
BELIEVE!!!! In Self and what you are capable of. Perhaps it is time to start a new project or initiate a new venture. It’s time to plant seeds for your future based on an inspired idea.
The Number 2
All about our intuition and not allowing others expectations control us or what we know we are supposed to be doing…responding or feeling at any given time. A good place to reflect on romance, partnership, and love to make sure it is happening for the highest good. It represents self reflection allowing the “I Am” to shine!
The Number 3
Is all about Expressing yourself! Open up to the world around you and enjoy it! Become part of it… Live and Laugh …Love Big… Dance, Who cares what others think time to feed the soul!
The Number 4
All about grounding ourselves. Time to work on our foundations and the core of who we are. All about our Sacred Circles and making sure they are strong and we are balancing in positives…the teachings of Respect, Wisdom, Love, Truth, Honesty, Courage and Humility.
The Number 5
Change …Change…Change! Our lives are all about Change from the moment we are conceived to the moment we transition, we can not escape it so why not embrace it! This is how growth on all levels occurs so instead of fighting it roll with it… and see where it takes you. If it takes you through negativity, deal with it head on to get past it and back to the positive place on your path.
The Number 6
Balance is sought…Balance is needed. We need to balance so that our soul can be at it’s strongest and brightest… so we stay on the path to attain our goals. So take the time to care for self and balance.
The Number 7
Reflection and Meditation is what is needed if you keep seeing 7’s. It is time to take care of self and feed your soul take time out from the everyday chaos of the world around us and let it go.
The Number 8
There are things that are challenging us when we see the number 8… but we need to meet those challenges! Go Big or Go Home as the old saying goes! What doesn’t kill us only to makes us stronger. We have got this! So get it done!
The Number 9
Be gentle with yourself! I often tell people this as it is gentle reminder that we are our own worst critic. Things may be feeling tough, like there is no light at the end of this tunnel… but there is. We must remember we are not Gods we are mere mortals, human with flaws and imperfections. Things will get better we simply have to let go and give it to the Creator God and/or the Universe.
The Number 0
Spiritual in representation of a higher calling, a need for attention to be paid to our spiritual side that may need work or balance. It is also a magnifier for the number preceding it.
The Number 11
Intuition…listen to it! Believe what it is telling and sharing with you. It is not in your mind, but in your tool kit. You are awakened and enlightened so allow it to flow and be in the moment of understanding and comprehension.
I am bear Medicinewalker and 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.
