Turtle stops in today in the 7th place to share we need to remember to be kind to ourselves. If we feel emotions …honor them and take time to process through them no matter what they may be. Make space in your day so that they are not overlooked. Because what they are matters to who we are as humans.

Turtle teaches us as one of the 7 Grandfather Teachings to honor our Truths… to remember that we are all imperfect beings that make up the great circle we call life. We all have purpose…we all contribute whether we realize it or not, we all have a place. So own your Truth, process the emotions you have and the reasons they are there so that you can move forward in positives.

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.

Within the Seven Grandfather Teachings the Turtle was present to ensure that the laws would never be lost or forgotten. On the back of a Turtle are the 13 moon, each representing the truth of one cycle of the Earth’s rotations around the sun. The 28 markings on her back represent the cycle of the moon an of a woman’s body. The shell of the Turtle represents the body real events as created by the Higher Power, and serves as a reminder of the Creator’s will and teachings.

TRUTH is to know all of these things. Be true to yourself and your fellow man. Be able to speak the truth. This is considered the final and last teaching because to live this teaching, one must achieve and understand the first six teachings. By being honest with those around you with your feelings and behaviors; by loving yourself and others; by respecting others with what they say and do; by being humble – knowing that everyone around you deserves your respect as you theirs; by being brave when facing new challenges and by accepting your own and others wisdom.

Today the Salmon is in the 7th place and tells us that if we want something in our lives… we should and need to fight for it! Don’t let things detour you from your goals. Sometimes in life we just have to work and push through the negatives and twists that life throws at us in order to achieve things. That is okay, for it is through the journey that Salmon shows us it can be done…. Just like us in the human world the Salmon run upstream against the odds to continue to thrive and exist.

That is the lesson Salmon teaches us for today… and remember you have got this whatever it may be, work hard and push through it. Life can be an amazing thing filled with adventure and positives, but only if we get off our butts and move forward.

Salmon brings with today’s lessons family values and connections with our communities and friends that are in and around our lives. Reach out and strengthen the ones that are staying, let loose with love the ones that are not, and be in the moment with those that are balanced. So today the Coho Salmon want us to listen to the little voice that resides in each of us and follow the path of positives that bring us back to our family and foundations.

Coho Salmon bring to our lives and teach us ways of abundance, fertility, prosperity and renewal of both the physical and spiritual. Guiding us with transformation, intuition, instinct, and urging us to examine your life considering any of the obstacles we may have on our paths as we walk forward.

Coho Salmon teach us that the most valuable and sacred things in life must be fought for. Although it may seem the odds are impossible and the struggles have worn you out, your needs, goals and dreams are near, and that the most resistance normally occurs just before we succeed. So do not stop and give up now. This is not time to go with the flow today… ignore what outside pressures are placing on you and go with your own intuition, follow your instincts they will not fail you.

Like the Coho Salmon we also go through several transitions throughout our lives, so remember if you are feeling stuck it may be time to transition into newness of self, leaving what is not needed anymore behind. Return to your Soul’s intent, feel the Sacred of you and honor that as you push ahead to reach your goals.

Enjoy the life we are here to live and experience, honoring the Sacred within! Our spirits have been given the energy to renew and transform…so take hold of our own power that comes from deep within our core! allow the abundance and fertility of ideas and creativity to blossom into positives your life… your path, your journey has been acknowledged and listen to the sacred from within and around your life and allow it to push you into the positive steps of life!

So today Grandfather Sun shows up in the 7th space from the deck and shares with us it is time to soak life all in and look for creative ways to walk it, share it and revel in it! So often we get caught up in the trials and tribulations of our days cause as we all know and I don’t have to remind you guys… Life can get complicated. But that is the fun of it all, it is in this great journey we all are on that we learn and evolve, hopefully in better ways.

Grandfather Sun reminds us all that even dark and gloomy days help us to appreciate that when we step out from the shadows and feel his warmth on our skin…take a breath and feel that it is indeed a great thing to be alive to experience it all. Besides it is all those twists and turns that make us stronger and help us be better people.

SO today step into the creative that exists in all of us and begin to turn your life into what you want it to be! Create your own destiny and don;t let others take your shine away… your power. OWN IT and be proud.

Grandfather Sun is very important to all of us. The sun has been looked upon as the giver of light, heat, welcomed by the crops that are planted and all of the Plant People and bring about growth. The rays of the sun also represent the cardinal directions, North, South, East and West..

So as it enters our space here today and in days to come, Grandfather Sun brings with him the Creator’s Healing Grace. He shines and sends shadows and negativity away. The warmth it provides us is like a mother’s hug wrapping around us to say everything is gonna be alright.

Today have a bit of faith, open your hearts to experience the good in the world and let the shadows of negativity dissipate from the light of your soul. Feel what is strong and powerful in your selves and let that positive shine for the world to see. Allow your growth to continue, experience the strength from within that we all have, that although it may be being tested at the moment, still has what is needed to get through it all.

Breathe and feel his fingers upon your faces as Grandfather Sun freely gives us the power he provides unconditionally. Enjoy your day and don’t let dark clouds detour you from your goals!

So today the Badger steps in to remind us it is time to dig deep and clean out our proverbial closets. The long winter has allowed us to store up things that are negative or that may be holding us back. So time to get rid of it so that the upcoming days and weeks are cleared for better things.

Badger also reminds us that guilt is a human factor that for some crazy reason even if we don’t need to hold on to it, we do. So time to release it, fix it, apologize for it…. whatever it takes to re-balance ourselves in positive manners!

Badger shows up reminding 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 Badger brings 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.

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.

Blessings to you All!

So today the Puffin sticks it’s brightly colored head into focus to tell us to be mindful of our relationships with ourselves and others. It’s all about remembering to balance ourselves, not jumping to conclusions prior to viewing and listening to the entire story. Today is all about empowering ourselves to do the right thing, take time for self to balance, heal in order to move ahead in life by taking positive steps.

So today try and stay focused on the important aspects of your life and don’t focus on the small things… see the light through the darkness!

Puffins are at home in the water, a little unbalanced as they maneuver on land or try to fly. Being out of their comfort zone of water they show how it is difficult to sometimes balance situations and self as we come head to head with lifes challenges. When Puffins shows up it means it is a time of self refection and prayer…meditations. They are amazing creatures that can share with us lessons to be more insightful with ourselves, children and other relationships we may have.

Because of how Puffins raise their young they teach us about how to understand what we may see as parental abandonment may simply mean we need to strengthen our own abilities without using a crutch of sorts. They teach us about lifetime commitments and responsibilities, and they teach us to see the light through the darkness. Puffins usually leave their young to dive off the rocks and into the ocean for food. They teach us about parenthood and assisting our children with the skills they will need as they grow and become adults.

May your day be as amazing as you all are!
Blessings to you all…
