Snake boldly comes into play with strength of the Ancient Ones in the space of the 7th card. Transmutation which is key in today’s world in order to wade through the pockets of harshness and judgement. We need to listen to the Ancients, to the lessons of our Ancestors, our Elders for there is much to learn as we walk through these dark days. We must learn to alter our the state of being to a new form so that we once again remember the teachings from the beginning of time and before, our Human Roots, the beginning of our Soul’s journey. We All chose to come here and experience the human, and yet somewhere along the way we have forgotten who we are meant to be and how we are meant to care for all Life here on the planet.

Snake is a hard task Master… and not easy medicine to accept. I have carried Snake Medicine now for many years and am still the student when she comes to roost within my consciousness. Listen to the Lessons so we do not have to continue this cycle of repeat, repeat, repeat… it is that simple. We must learn to ground ourselves, and to remember that human nature will push us to take the easy way around, yet that is the lesson lost…. we must learn to accept the path through if we are to learn and grow in positives that will help us flourish in our daily lives. Snake reminds us we have the ability and power within to face all of life’s challenges we just have to own it.

Snake Is a difficult teacher at times, and one that is not easy to master. Lessons that Snake brings with it are of life cycles and change, remembering as we grow we shed and transform into new energies and new experiences. Snake also teaches us about poison and that we need to be able to rid ourselves of the toxins can be placed within our Sacred Hoops. Don’t let the poisons kill us or dim our light that resides within. At times the poison and toxins can play games with our thoughts if we allow them to, so mastering what is real and what is illusion can often contribute to negativity and clouding of ones judgement. Make sure to take a breath, a beat… before stepping into a place of no return. Keep it all in perspective and balance. Once you can accomplish this, balance will return and be maintained.

Snake can be a hard teacher. His lessons involve a transmutation of the cycle of life, death and rebirth. Snake symbolizes this cycle with the shedding of his skin. We learn to the whole energy of life, the cosmic consciousness and have the willingness to experience anything without resistance. It is also about the poisons that we might take in. Those poisons can be eaten or ingested in some way but they also may be integrated into our lives. The goal is to not let the poisons taint our body or spirit.

Since Snakes can shed they teach us about the levels of our human, of our spirituality, our experiences. It is time to seek our inner knowledge before moving ahead with decisions. It is time to coil and go within to make sure we are well prepared before we strike out.

Snake also reminds us as it makes its way across the Great Mother Earth, to ground ourselves, to use our energy wisely and not to rely on primal instincts of lashing out. For at times it is more empowering to hold back and use that knowledge that energy in wise ways. At other times it is best to strike and seize the moment with a precision and quickness. Snakes often retreat long before biting defensively because they sense that it may cause consequences/damage to others and drain you of healing energy.

Snake is also very old and powerful healing medicine. Once harnessed, Snake will help you to position yourself carefully so that you will trust your gut when making important decisions.

I am Dedicated to Assisting others to meet their full potential. To help people connect with Spirit to Heal and move forward… understanding that our family and friends in the Spirit World want us to succeed knowing they are around us to assist us when we need the support and guidance to get through our days in the human world. To help people achieve balance in their lives and walk a strong and purposeful path.

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… WE All need to become proactive in saving our planet, the creatures that live upon it, and each other.

Blessings to You ALL,
