So today the Koi comes in the 7th place… bringing with it the Wisdom of Our Ancestors. Today is a time to step back, head down in contemplation. Listen and hear what is around you to better understand, but remain quiet in order to hear your own soul speak to you. Concentrate on the present not the future ahead, for it is important that we simply be in the moment today. Sometimes order is restored by remaining silent… today is that day.
Koi tells us to learn and watch quietly for there is much to understand and learn in our world but often we do not slow down long enough to even begin to understand or comprehend that. There is always another day once Father Sun sets and Grandmother Moon rises in the skies… gather their knowledge, what they share in positive energy for us to heal, strengthen our cores. Take time for you and those close to you just to simply be in each others company, to appreciate the world around you.
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.
Koispeaks 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 Koifish 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 Koiteach 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.

Don’t forget to catch Spiritually Paranormal each week!
Today Ms. Caz Rooney and Kerry Greenaway from Parasearch Radio stop in for some fun and insight!
Well today I am told by Badger as it shows up in the 7th spot, is gonna be a tough one energetically. Yup just when we thought perhaps we were going to catch a break… bang and nope. But keep the Faith in yourself because you are strong enough to handle whatever is thrown your way, you just may have to dig a little deeper… push a little harder… and smile a little brighter to do so! But you ALL HAVE GOT THIS!
So the Badger is also saying don’t take everything at face value… don’t allow others to hold you back in your quest for positives today… get it done!
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.

Remember to catch me on Spiritually Paranormal
There is a thin divide between what is perceived as Spiritual and Paranormal, for they are forever intertwined throughout time. Traveling within the history of the world, we can find examples of Spirituality that involves everything from Magic, Spirits, Gods and Goddesses’ and Seer’s or People said to be able to talk to the Dead. We All have our belief systems, we all have our own Truths.
So let us possibly bend those truths a bit with some insights and perspectives that may be a bit different than yours or even give yourself validation for what you see as true. Come sit with myself and the best of the best in Research, Teaching, Discovery and Practitioners of the Day
This Wednesday check in as Caz Rooney and Kerry Greenaway from Parasearch Radio pop in!
Eagle comes into play this day to teach and remind us to stay in our Higher Self frame of mind. The winds of energy that are swirling this day are not nice and will prove challenging to maneuver today. So be mindful and protect yourself as the time goes by. Remember that we have the ability to control how things effect us. So when the negatives show up…and they are sure to show up today…. Don’t allow yourself to get dragged down by the negativity.
As long as we remember to soar, the Eagle teaches us that we can accomplish anything we set our minds to. So Soar on the breezes of chaos rather than get tangled in the ugliness they can and often do catch humanity up in!
Interestingly enough as I sat outside this morning as the Grandfather Sun began to peek out form the horizon… I had an Eagle come storming through the air and into the trees… with a large group of Ravens following it in, screaming at the top of their little lungs at her. She calmly just nestled on a branch, and actually quite comically turned it’s head upside down to look at me as if to say, don’t let the little things annoy you for that is all the energy is trying to do…annoy us all. She sat there for about ten minutes or so never being flustered by the Ravens at all… and kept talking with me… looking directly at me. She was about 12 feet away. When she lifted herself up to fly out over the lake, she soared on the first current and lazily swooped over the top looking for breakfast, again reminding us all we are in control of our own choices.
Eagle a strong symbol of All that is Sacred, and reminder that we too can fly high and feel the breath of the Creator if we honor the process. We must understand that each and every act we do, each word we say, each look we make can move mountains or set up walls. We can be the strength that is needed to protect, the example needed to inspire or the calm that settles a storm. But we must honor the process. There is no easy button to push, no simple way to get things done for it all requires work in order to achieve the outcome we desire. So remember to feed the positives, weed out the negativity from your life and allow ourselves to be able to feel the Creators love upon each of us.
Eagle reminds us all that we need to care for our Spiritual needs. That the very part of who we are and walk as begins with our Spiritual side and how we connect to the Creator and all that is Sacred. Our soul’s Light, our energy, our very foundation is all about how we feed our soul. How and what we choose as we walk our paths will then mirror out to the world and invite the same to surround us.
We must remember the foundations of Humanity… Love, Respect, Wisdom, Humility, Truth, Honesty and Courage… in order to be strong and stand in a balanced and good way. We must overcome the blindness of society and the negatives they spin. This is what Eagle shares today… this is what he reminds us to do.
So today fly high and touch the face of Creator… stand in Integrity and Truths, and stand with All that is Sacred, all that Matters… with Love and Respect that we are meant to as Human.
Eagle speaks to us of our spiritual paths. I have been taught that the Eagle can fly to the heavens, that its wings can be touched by God Creator. When in it’s presence I feel the Grace of the Creator and All that is Sacred. The Eagle humbles me.
Teaching us to reflect and pause, to rejoice and reconnect to our spirits. To honor our paths, the ethics we have been taught. To Pray, to honor to live in a sacred manner. To listen to our Ancestors that have walked before us and in doing so listen to the wisdoms that have been shared so that we can walk more positive paths. Eagles the symbol of Courage and strength, to do … to walk… the right manner. To take that courage and step into what you re meant to step to in a positive way, and allowing our spirits to soar to the heights to share in God Creator’s extended grace.
Eagleswith their sharp eyesight take us to the heights to observe situations in a manner that is more beneficial for us to make clear decisions. To become that visionary and push ourselves to discover and accept self, to accept truths, adapting , changing and growing along the way.
The medicine Eagle shares is, the ability to connect to the Divine, a power of God Creator. Being able to place one foot into the spirit realm and yet remain connected and balanced with Mother Earth.
So Honor your Spirit today and everyday by connecting with the Sacredness around you!

Today as we begin to walk into the work week, Grandfather Sun steps into the seventh spot this morning. Slowly sliding into our sky view it is reminding us to be kind to ourselves after the intense energy of the weekend is behind us…just remember that the energy is still running a muck as my Grandfather used to tell me. So with that in mind allow the feel of Grandfather Sun’s energy to lighten the negatives and strengthen our core values.
Grandfather Sun reminds us to remain strong in our convictions and do not allow mistrust of your intuition to detour you from the goals of the day. If you cater to your strengths instead of feeding insecurity and fear… the day will be on your side!
Grandfather Suns’ healing rays can gently warm our sore muscles and bones, reminding us to be grateful for the miracles of life… or it can be brutal and harsh showing us that we must care responsibly for life itself. Careful to shield ourselves from negatives of the world around us. Whatever the case may be as we continue our daily walks… take a moment to rejoice and soak up some energy today … as Grandfather shouts to us, “Hoka Hey Life is Good… Life is Sacred!”
Grandfather Sunis 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 this morning I asked the Ancestors and Spirit to help guide us through the weekend… the energy has been so up and down, in and out that I thought it would be interesting to see what they would have to offer. So the first card to present in the 7th place was the Moose!
I love the Moose they are so amazing, they carry themselves so majestically. Bringing to light the fact we all need to take responsibility for ourselves, our actions, our words our deeds. No one is making us do/say anything…we are the ones making our own choices of how to act and react. So Own it, take care in how we move through our moments in our lives. It is important to remember that as the energy of today swirls… be thoughtful in choices made.
The second card to fall into the 7th place was the Parrot! The Parrot continues to remind us we are setting examples for others to see as we interact with others and situations in our lives. It is a good thing if we take the higher road, respond in positives so that that flow of energy that is released by us generates a gentler and above all a smarter way of doing and saying things. So remember communication in all forms carries out into the surrounding world… so make it all count!
The third card that presented in the 7th place was the Badger! It is all about being strong in our convictions that positives manifest more positives. To allow ourselves to heal self and balance. That not one of us is exactly the same… and with that our differences should not keep us apart, but rather makes us stronger. Bringing balance by strengthening each others weaknesses.
That is why we all are important to the balance of the world… each holding together a common thread of humanity. So remember that as the energy tugs at making each of us a bit irritable…it will get better if we allow it to, the choice is up to us.
Western moose in Isle Royale National Park, Michigan
Moose expresses for us to regain love for ourselves and others by accepting each person’s differences as unique and part of the puzzle that is life. Without each other, we would have no purpose. It is time to lead by example, it is time to care for our great Mother Earth and all that dwells upon her, for we were merely lent Her resources, and given guardianship over Her… something we sorely forget.
Moose asks us why we do not understand why things are the way they are in the world today… for all we have to do is open our eyes to see. Then as Moose takes leave, it asks us all to accept responsibility for our role in it all and begin to assist in the healing of not only the planet but ourselves.
Moose what some view as gentle and cuddly are far from it! (Other than the stuffed toy ones that is!) They are true to themselves and set the example for their young. They are reminding us today to do just that, set the example… and instill in them the lessons and foundations that they need to have to move forward in life in a good and strong manner. We are responsible for each step and the chain reactions that we cause, no one else.
Our Elders and Ancestors have experienced much so we could be here… but not for us to hold onto the negatives they endured here as they walked among us, but rather so we would become stronger and wiser. Moose reminds us to remember the lessons so we do not have to relive them over and over again!
Moose reminds us of Life and the inner Strengths that each and everyone of us has deep down in our Soul’s. Moose is all about listening to our instinct and remaining in balance when using our strength, for sometimes situations call for gentle strength and at other times it calls on us to be fierce! They remind us to look to our Elders, our Wise ones in and around our Sacred Hoops for advice and perspective.
As large as Moose are they are still graceful in movement, stealth and quick when called for. That is a huge lesson for us to learn as we walk the Human. It isn’t always about being first, or always thinking that our way is the only way… it is about honoring and respecting all points of view and then choosing the most positive for you. Knowing our Soul’s true purpose is to walk in positives and experience life itself. Moose tells us to be proud of who we are as individuals and let no one tell you that you are less than.
Moose encourages us to be true to ourselves and who we are… Self Love is one of the hardest things to attain for many, so get your bootstraps, pull them up and walk proudly for who you are and remember it isn’t about ego, it isn’t about what others see in us… it is about balance and pride in the positives we are able to step forward in.
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.
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.

As I began to move into the day today, the air was thick and the energy is intense which came through as I drew the 7th card… the Scorpion! So Scorpion teaches us today be careful what and how you say things. Do not accept things without pondering the meaning or intent of how they were delivered to you, whether it be words or gestures and actions of others. Tread lightly through the day.
Things may not be as they appear or are presented to you. Do not act rashly, but be thoughtful in choices made. Think before you leap as my Grandfather used to say. Doing so the Scorpion teaches us will make us able to see through the poison and negatives that we may come across today and days to come.
Scorpion shows up when there is poison at work in our lives. Such as a toxic relationship or situation that is working against you and how you need to move forward in a positive way. It shares that we need to watch our backs due to the element of Fire being present. Scorpion brings the ability of transmuting that poison through that fire allowing the poison back to the place of origin or into the universe to be recycled into positives.
Scorpion medicine is strong and we must remember that is should be approached with caution and used only for positive outcome, or it’s poison will come back and fill our own lives with negatives.
Be cautious of your thoughts, your tongue and your deeds. Look at life and see what no longer serves and remove them from our lives, our paths so that we can move in more positive steps. Look at minimizing the enabling of others that causes us to be unable to move forward. Re-establish our boundaries, make clear decisions about which direction the next few months will take and move on.
Scorpions teach us strength and show us that we have the ability to inspire others. To be passionate about life and remember that what lies in the dark is not always bad, but rather to be understood and used in a more positive way.
Blessings to You All,

So the Medicine Bag falls in the 7th place today to remind us to follow the high road as the energy of negativity swirls around us all today. Remember to not allow things to raise your emotional state of anger for it will serve no one today in a good way. Sometimes we need to look inside our power, our tool kits… at what Medicine we carry with us in our Medicine Bags, metaphorically or in actuality. For doing so will allow us to walk in balance, attract what is needed to our lives in all aspects.
So the Medicine Bag also reminds us to check in with what we carry with us… is it still serving us? Or perhaps things need to remind us to be the best person we can be even at the times it is hardest to do so. We want a better world, then we must start with self. So today and all the days forward, remember who we are meant to be…not what others want or expect, for it is not their journey.
A Medicine Bag ( also called a Medicine Pouch) is traditionally a small pouch filled with talismans such as stones, herbs, found objects, personal memorabilia and its purpose is protection, to remind us of our human and All that is Sacred and to assist us in healing and keeping our Sacred Hoops in balance. Native Americans have carried these bags for centuries, but in recent years, they’ve also become popular in our modern day culture but most are unaware of the intent/purpose of them.
Traditionally a Medicine Bag or bundle contains something from the plant, animal and mineral kingdoms and from the life of a person. Meant to be kept close to your person so that the spiritual power surrounds you and becomes one with your energy. In a sense it becomes one with who you are. What goes onto the bag is your personal medicine, things you draw “power” from that will aid you as you walk your paths. If you receive one as a gift, the maker or person gifting it should add something of their own to help you on your journey.
Understand that a traditional Medicine Bag is Sacred. The bag should not be opened by anyone else. It is up to the individual whose bag it is if they choose to take items out in order to share with others the story behind them, or to use them for healing purposes. Each item is considered Sacred and is meant to assist its owner with power and spirituality while they walk the Human. Allowing others to access the bag and it’s contents, ‘steals’ the power and lessons its intent for the owner.
