Today the Butterfly graces our day with messages from “Spirit” and lessons of migration and travel. Here at the lake the Butterfly has passed through heading for warmer climates and gentle breezes. It knows when to use it’s internal clock and instinct to guide it to where it needs to be. Sensing that there is a right time for everything, and everything occurs exactly when and where it is meant to.

Often we are in such a hurry that we miss lifes little nuances that it shares with us. Butterfly is reaching out to remind us to be aware of all that is happening around our Sacred Hoops for when we do, eyes wide open…we can see the Magic of it All!

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!

The Red Fox shows itself this day and brings with it several teachings.  Stealth and care will be needed for us as we look inside to find out they why’s of the issues that are plaguing us. To look deep and see why patterns are repeating and outcomes not changing. But Fox brings us the teachings of patience and truths that as we look deep enough and are honest with self, we can see the triggers and reset and reprogram them so we are not constantly repeating over and over the negatives that have come to evolve.

No one is perfect, but we need to also remember that in the imperfections we can find uniqueness and use that knowledge to set aside the “Victim” roles we have put in place as excuses for our misbehavior’s. Time to own it, release it and not allow it to define you. Fox reminds us to be flexible and adapt to life, to move through the ugly with confidence and respect for self and others.

It’s all about the little details, so pay attention to what is happening around you and with you. Be prepared for whatever pops up in your day and handle it with quiet ease. No need to stress over anything you have got this, because you have all you need to tackle whatever falls in your lap, so just get it done! Be watchful and mindful of others today as well, but not on the defensive… be ready to step in to lighten up someone else’s day by quietly doing something and adding the little extra push of help and positives that makes life a little easier to handle.

Whisperings from that little voice inside will guide you when you have questions, don’t try and second guess yourself, or worry about what others may think… Trust in yourself…have Faith in yourself! Today is gonna be a AWESOME DAY!

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.

The Gull…I can hear you all now, What the Heck would a Gull share? Well they share a lot actually and often we overlook and dismiss what they have to teach! But not today because today is a day of souls rejoicing, not as one may think… this is our Ancestors and Spirit swooping high and low to guide us to what needs to be acknowledged… to move us to positives.

Changes will occur today, that to some may be unsettling. Remember Faith and Trust in Creator God… life is a miracle in itself and should be celebrated, all aspects of it, birth to death and all the in between and after…

So pay attention today to all the little nuances that are shared with us all, add the knowledge to your tool kits so you have them as we celebrate our Sacred Hoops reaching for those dreams to manifest and make them a reality of positive!

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.

Working with both the Elementals of Earth, Air and Water, they also teach us to be adaptable and sometimes we are called to behave and act differently under varied situations. This is okay and part of our learning how to communicate better with others and the world around us. Or perhaps they are showing us areas that we need to clean up in our own lives so that we can meet our full potential.
