Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day the Turtle


Today we have Turtle stepping in to share with us Wisdom’s of Old.  It is time we begin to remember and honor what our Ancestors have lived and sacrificed for us and the fact that they did not walk this earth so that we would hold onto anger and mistrust of each other, but rather for us to learn from those mistakes and have better foundations. To continue looking back will hold us static in one place. Standing in the shadows is not what we are meant to do, we are people of light and it is time we begin acting like it.

Although there is to be a balance between the light and dark in our worlds, it needs to balance as Day turns to night and back to day again … so must we do the same. We must use the time of darkness for rest waking to the light and moving forward in positives. Our Ancestors gave us teachings we must live by, walk with and speak to… for to do so is to honor them, and in turn honoring our own Sacredness.

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.

 

“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 of the Day

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day the Scarob


Very Old Energies enter our day today as the Scarab shows itself from the deck this morning. It is about outside influences, old and unresolved issues that we are carrying with us that we need to release. With the fast approaching winter months ahead of us, it is time to let it go. Repair what is needed to repair, release what is no longer relevant in your life so that only positives will follow in to the period of the Winter’s Grace.

Time to step in when needed and to walk away from where you are not, there is no shame in this. This is a huge lesson for me as well today, one that I have been struggling with for awhile, but what we have to realize is that even though we may totally and unconditionally love someone, something, staying and enabling a situation, a cycle, a way of life, etc. is not always the best thing to do. We show more respect, honor and yes even Love by letting go. This will allow other things to grow also in a more positive way… open yourself and other situation and people up to experience something that will bring joy and balance in.

the Scarab
There are aspects of change that are being pushed at you that are not necessarily about you and what is right for you. Look at the situation from all angles and look towards a compromise that works for all involved. The main issue is more than likely something that is ongoing and/or unresolved with family or friends that will require you to be part of even though you are in the background of things. You will act as a grounding influence. Remove yourself from the drama but instill yourself where needed.

The Scarab also brings you information of positive outcomes in your life for situations that may be present at the moment,. Stand your ground and soon all will be resolved with a positive and higher purpose.

So today I call to the Sacred Winds to carry our prayers, our thoughts, our needs …to Creator God and the Ancestors
To help us to walk in more positive manners,
Reaching to Embrace the Unconditional and knowing that we all are no better than or less than one another.
To be able to have strength of character in order to release aspects of our lives in order to allow new things to be given birth and grow.
So it is Said…So May It be So

Blessings to All

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day the Squirrel


So who popped up in the cards this morning but the playful and ever persistence Squirrel! The Squirrel shares the importance of stockpiling and filling our life with the things we will need emotionally as well as physically, not only in the moment but in the days and times ahead.

Chaotic times means that more often than not we are scattered and running on empty, so we need to stop and take a breath before stepping into the next part of the day. Or as the Squirrel often does as it gathers its stores for the winter months, we will lose focus, lose our way to the goals we have set and like the squirrel won’t be able to find what we set aside for positive movement and nourishment to our soul. Thus the statement stop being a Squirrel! Hahahahhahaha Okay but seriously now stick to the task at hand and do not loose your focus today so that your efforts will not be in vain. We need to stay balanced, resourceful staying on course as we wrangle through the obstacles of the day!

Squirrel shows up to remind us we need to also balance our lives and have a little fun. We often get so caught up in life we forget to stop and breathe let alone relax and have a little fun in the process. We need to learn to not take life so seriously all the time. Work has it’s place in our life…but so does fun and enjoyment, and each of our souls need to be fed in order to be healthy.

Of course Squirrel also is there to remind us that playtime is not all the time. They remind us to be prepared and structured so that we are able to play at the end of the day! (No pun intended) But don’t over do it and use all that energy and positive vibe that you collected and managed to store up.

Squirrel also reminds us to take a look at our life and get rid of the clutter that has collected, whether it be actual stuff or emotional baggage. Deal with it and get rid of it, what good is it doing you other than adding stress to our life? The past needs to remain in the past… deal with it and let it go!

On the negative side of things, Squirrel can be easy targets and when they are they are trying to play catch up or trying to fit in making our selves into someone we are not … then we wind up spent on the side of the road. That is a high cost to pay and should be avoided.

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day the Elephant


Well gently nudging me today is Elephant, and yes I said gently nudging. It is a day we all need to embrace and honor Family. I love Elephants, they teach us so much in the way they manage relationships, family, and yes their little ones. So wake up and honor those you lean on, count on, vent to and perhaps show them back a little kindness today and share some positive emotion towards them and those that walk within your life circle!

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.

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day the Beaver


So the Beaver stops in this day to teach and remind us that we need to look at our life and see what needs to be built, what needs to be rebuilt and what needs to be taken down allowing the waters and energy to once again flow through. Beavers are quite adept and seeing what is needed in situations and adapting their lives to make things work better, adding more positives and expelling the negatives. They also share with us at times it’s just better to let them go and move on rather than trying to rebuild leaving the old behind us. Then at other times their determination will also show through on things they will not let go of, and even though humans may tear it down, Beavers know what is best and will continue to rebuild knowing the lessons have not all been learned.

Beaver tells us to step outside the negative cycles and break them by moving through them in positive ways, respectful ways, with humility and gratefulness… the way our Ancestral Teachings were given to us… Keep to the honest and loving ways we were taught as young ones, find your compassion and humanity again and make it stronger.

Beaver shares that it is time to build our dreams into reality teaching us that we need to remember to rely on self, but in the process not to loose the sense of family that leads us to being an important part of community. Traditions and culture both help to build the strong foundations of who we are as individuals.

Do not be afraid to push and build your dreams into reality. Beaver reminds us to be creative, use the strong foundations that have been laid into place and grow from that. Expand your thoughts, your abilities enabling you to grow into a new sense of being. Clear the old and replace it with newer and stronger ties reinforcing who we are and where we came from.

Beaver will teach us if we allow it to, when to build up the walls to protect and rest, but also teaches us to remember to clean and change as we need to, flowing with the patterns of life. Adaptability so we do not get forced into situations we should not or do not want to be in. Always look at alternatives for there are many ways to go about things.

Beaver reminds us that it is good to be creative, to stay busy …but to also remember teamwork gets the job done quicker at times. So stop for a moment to catch your breath and look at what is going on in your life at the moment, and move forward in a positive way, utilizing all the tools and assets that have been placed in front of you, remembering that all parts of life are needed to do so.

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Weekend Run!

Well apparently the Ancestors want us all to step it up and pay attention to how we are moving through the weekend! Pull 3 cards bear …pull 3 cards… doitdoitdoitdoitdoit! Okay already!  So here you guys go. So PAY CLOSE ATTENTION to the way you are moving through this upcoming weekend or I am sure I will be hearing about it on the other side of it hahahahhaha!

So the first card I picked was the White Buffalo and it is pushing through that we need to be honoring or very souls in a Sacred manner! We have been neglecting the who “I Am” as we have allowed the worlds chaos to push away what is important! The Ancestors teachings of Respect, Truth, Wisdom, Love, Humility, Courage and Honesty. So as we walk through the upcoming days keep those teachings foremost in front of our minds eye to strengthen our character and balance our walks!

The Second card that comes into play today is the Grouse!  It stops in to remind us all to Dance in Joy of the fact we are Alive!!! Feel the beauty around you in your life circles… even if you are in a low spot we must strive to keep our balance, simply look around you and find something that is a positive in your situations, it’s there we just have to look with eyes wide open!

Grouse dances in circles, speaking to us of cycles that we walk through on our paths, from birth to death transitions and on to rebirth. We all experience these, from the moment we take our first breath, it is called change. So the Grouse asks that we embrace those changes,,, and dance to the drumbeat of your own soul! Stand in your own power, revitalize your spirit, your human… dance and create, manifest what it is that you need to walk a more positive way on your own path. Don’t worry about what others are thinking or doing… concentrate on your own energy as you dance and place yourself in harmony and balance with body, mind and spirit.

The final card for this upcoming weekend is the Gull. 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.

So with the help from the Ancestors and the amazing creatures that came forward for us all today…open to the possibilities and you will balance and feed your souls this weekend!

“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.

Spiritual and Totem Insights for the Day – the Koi


Koi filled my head this morning as it showed itself from the deck! Offering the one thought, if you can place it in your mind as thought and vision it can be accomplished! We Must simply believe in our selves! So often we think of things or want to attain a certain goal and it eludes us, why is that? Well mostly because we aren’t trying hard enough.

Koi suggests that life is not easy it is a path of learning and experiences, and yes that is what we are here for like it or not… is to experience and grow from it. It is once again presented as choice, we make the choice to move forward and overcome things, we make the choice to give up and whine about what we can not have… of course the path can be tough, yet again we have the ability to choose how we face and overcome! Remember as well that is why they are called “Obstacles” which is defined as a thing that blocks one’s way or prevents or hinders progress.

So Listen to the Wisdom shared today by the Koi, it is ancient and will help you to stop and be in the moment of the Day!

Koi shows up asking us to honor the past, the wisdom’s and teachings shared by the Ancestors. It is easy at times to forget and run ahead on the path, leaving the things that are important to us as we walk the human… yet we should be slowing down in order to be part of the beauty that is in life all around us. Treating each moment with respect and thankfulness. Life is a gift, but we need to remember that the balance of it lies within each of us, it is not someone else’s responsibility… it is our responsibility to walk in the highest good for all.

Koi speaks to us of being calm, peaceful and working together with each other in a state of Zen which places us in a state of enlightenment by direct intuition through meditation and/or prayer. When we are in this state, positives flow in and around us creating a healthier way of life.

The Koi fish brings to us prosperity and a path for new opportunities to show themselves to us. It is up to each of us to be open and aware in order to take advantage of them. Koi can assist us during meditation and altered states of mind in order to help us achieve healing and our full potentials by opening to the wisdom’s of “the Old Ones.” The colors can also be associated with various aspects and applied to our lives if we can again be open to what they share.

The black Koi brings transition into our lives.

The gold Koi brings prosperity which can represent the physical, the spiritual or represent monetary wealth that is being brought to our paths.

The platinum Koi brings to our lives success and puts new and beneficial opportunities at our doors.

White Koi that have red coloring only on their heads push us to be aware of positive movement within our lives and enables us to take advantage of them.

A white and red marked Koi is said be a blessing for well balanced relationships.

The Koi teach us to remember to honor all that is Sacred, to meditate and pray… to be thankful for all our many blessings large and small. To understand that our actions today will imprint for lifetimes just as it has for our Ancestor’s. So walk your paths wisely and ask for assistance from our Ancestor’s often.
