Animals in our lives as Spirit guides catalysing 'Evolution'

I'm loving all your sharings here in our revived Animal Medicine forum. Thanks everyone for chirping in (pardon the pun!).

Ready to have your minds blown? Then check this one out. The amazing intelligence of the humble crow...

In terms of "Animal Medicine", I find crows tend to speak into our shadow side distortions. So they'll call at particular times where we need to own something, and work on it. But now clearly, we can add applying the intuition for puzzle solving to their many traits.

Simply mind-blowing...

I found this video today, about a Badger artist, and his experiences with Badger. How they inspire him to create art...

What creature is appearing on your path? Do share. I'll happily offer a reflection.

EWE ~ A poem by Aphroheidi

My spiritual DeLorean

Coming back to the future,

delving into the past.

EWE, you are here and there,

while I stay everywhere;

yet present in this moment.

The field is so green!

The sun is bursting!

Clouds appear brighter,

bring the rain.

Washing away,

cleansing.

EWE, it beads off of EWE.

Almost a palindrome

Hey EWE, Don't get Aibohphobia on my count..

1, 2, 3...

Personally, I love the squirrel energy! They always show up for me when the flow is saying one of two things: (1) resources are on their way (2) to be a degree more careful with resources.

They're also amazingly aware. I watched a guy feeding grapes to squirrels in a park in New York once. He said how they instantly knew if a grape was not organic...because they would peel it first!

Amazing

I’m very much in the ‘Green Snake’ energy right now 😉.

I’ll write more about that in a few days.

I'm doing a lot of work with "Dragon Energy" right now - getting a lot of synchronicities around it and working to unfold it in my field. What do I mean by that? Dragon energy is a metaphysical movement of energy which some have metaphored as a Dragon. The eastern Goddes Quan Yin is often pictured riiding a dragon for example. To me it's a metaphysical energy that closely resembles the flowing Torus - in fact the visualisation and feeling of it is highly likely to be the flowing Torus itself, which can greatly help in protection, creativity and flow. I'll be writing more about it soon and creating a meditation download on it.

Air dragon is what's speaking loudest at the moment, as the flow ascends in a spiral from the base, through the chakras and up into the higher densities. Plus there's also an interrelated downward flow, which generates full integration through ones field. Here's the sense of it with a depiction of the Universal Torus...

I’ve going through many changes and realizations these few months. I keep most to myself as I haven’t felt that I should share or reach out. Not the time. So many synchronicities, like the subject of animal totems. I had a very vivid dream a couple of months ago, I don’t recall the whole thing but I was was running, or soaring. I heard a screeching above me and when I looked, a huge beautiful owl was looking at me. I say he, because I felt a masculine energy, extended his legs and talons. I was frightened at first and started to look away but then I felt a calm wash through me, he wasn’t attacking me, he was joining me, so I raised my arm and we became one. I don’t remember anything else. Weeks later I’ve noticed a change in my thinking and fears and I remembered the dream. No matter what is happening in the world right now, I still feel pain for what many are going through but also bouts of overwhelming love. I know that everything will always be okay, we will be okay, that has been a message I’ve received many times throughout my life.

Tonight as I go about my normal routine, I felt a pull to put my headphones in and listen to music. The song I felt to listen to is one I’m sharing here. https://youtu.be/rh-qLt6qYnI

no matter where we are on this journey, the connection and fact that we’re all going through this life here together is of comfort. Never alone, never give up, and always feel the love.

Dear Aspasia ,

It was wonderful to read about your story with your beloved cat Matty . I truly loved it - touched me deeply inside . Synchronistically , last week , i had the custody of a friend's black cat i only saw once around Christmas . This time , i had the real pleasure to get into a real deep connection with him & it felt amazing to see how he behaves in a new house . At one point , i felt " this cat is a special being " because he would do things that i had never witnessed with a cat like : lying in the kitchen sink or the bath tub . He made me laugh more than once and i sort of learned through reflections what he was here to convey : lightness of being , having fun for no reason , doing things the way others don't , kindness , and a serious sense of adaptation to a new environment . It was a very unexpected experience that i truly cherish . In the same time , there have been bees coming into my sleeping room nearly every day for the past 2, 3 weeks and pigeons seem to appear whenever i go for a while now - sometimes flying not far from the car ( in my knowing and thanks to Open's insights from last summer school - i know they appear to express Pleiadian's presence and support ) . This last winter , its was the Bear energy that came in - to express a special phase of inner retreat for special processing during those 3 months . What i do understand is that Animal totems came into our lives for specific reasons at specific important times . Thats exactly how i feel a connection just to ones i mentioned . Once in a while , a beautiful Robin will appear ( Express yourself fully ) , a Crow ( beware of your shadow side ) or a Ladybug " connection to the Divine feminine ) .I also often hear the sweet Owl that must be living nearby during the night time - so special to connect with . Few weeks ago , suddenly , a beautiful flow of Dolphin signs came in and as i was just often into different places , they still appeared so delicately . I truly love those guys ( I beleive they hold a frequency that is connected to the energy of the planet Sirius like Whales are ) - the express intelligence , speed , fun , laughter , living in groups , and capable of recognizing many different frequencies . The Us Naval army tried to use them as a Sonar Radar for many years ...but it pains my heart to know how poorly they were treated during those experimentations . Right now , those brothers are making me feel like they are supporting this uplifting phase of my life - specially after a 3 month period of deep regression and tough inner explorations . I now live with a consciousness that offers the pull to protect , honor and deeply love any animal that i might encounter . If those beautiful beings weren't here with us , i sense that life would be way less enjoyable and way more difficult to live . Lets keep on connecting with those different worlds as one . So much love , Bluehopi Jean

Hey all!

I am surrounded by animals every day. I have a squirrel that is as dear to my heart as my own children are. She reminds me to be playful, learn to trust and yet forge ahead. Lately the robins have learned what the squirrels and ducks do. They come to whatever room I'm in, in my home and start pecking at the window. So I fix them treats and just sit a moment with them to say hello. I have a large amount of crows around me as well, and they always get very panic stricken whenever a hawk flies to close. But the hawk for me always comes to bring messages and to warn of any danger. Then there are the wolves and mythical creatures that always seem to come up one way or another in my life. Lately it feels like animals are gathering near me in larger numbers though. What this means, I've no idea other than maybe they just need to or perhaps I'm getting more and more evolved and am able to convert positively any catalyzing that needs to be done.

I reflected yesterday on how many animals have always seemed to just surround me. Now I can see why people I know eventually start trying to call me Mother Nature, or some other fairy tale name. Yes, it makes me laugh when they do but the reflection of that is what exactly is it. So I go with the old adage, it honestly does take one to know one I suppose :)

I do have to say though, the most phenomenal of all the animals I have ever had the pleasure to meet would be my first kitten. I was very young and the first conversation my Dad and I had about me having an animal was in a hospital, named Woodland of course. The conversation took place one minute to midnight of a birthday for me. Basically if I made it out alive lol! Obviously I did and so when I was able to, we went to an animal shelter and as I looked around at all the cats on the floor I remember feeling very overwhelmed. How could I pick just one. Then literally out of the ceiling came a kitten that plopped down onto my Dads back. I can still feel the joy of seeing this kitten, he was pure black and his tail was all crooked like a lightening strike.

A year later, my Dad had to leave for awhile and so left my sisters and I with a woman whom was wheelchair ridden. She was driving me to an appointment and instead of the appointment, drove straight into another vehicle at 45mph. Needless to say, out of the car through the windshield and onto the pavement was not going to be conducive to me staying alive. Yet, the universe had other plans. Two cars ahead of us was an ambulance and two cars behind was a newspaper reporter. My cat from there on out slept on top of my forehead, would hiss at anyone that came close and followed me everywhere, even refusing to let me get into a vehicle without him. Yet he always asked permission first before jumping up onto whatever furniture piece I was on. I'm sure him and I would have had a long long walk together, but I had to leave for awhile to another state and when I got back the woman that was caring for us said he just disappeared. I never liked her, but I was always as kind as I could possibly be and so many years later I happened upon her again at a street intersection. I recognized her immediately and said Hello, do you remember me?! Because I remember you. Her mind was not as it was though and there was much I wanted to do and say, but instead I helped her across the road and went on my way. It seems to me as I reflect back on all of this, so many people in my life have been like this woman. Come into my life, have a few moments then leave only to circle back again in some roundabout way before leaving again. I call it instant karma and leave no trace behind and try at least to enjoy every moment. The woman reminds me that no matter what happens in life, not to be debilitated by the circumstances. She was not crippled, but chose to be. Yet through her action, my left side was very blank for many years, I had amnesia, am partially deaf and left with an L shaped scar on my forehead for which kids used to say it was for losers. I'm a tough nut to crack though and always just said nope.. its for Love :)

At the moment, wolf seem to resonate quite strongly for me representing energies of wisdom, strength and presence. Synchronistically, recently coyote in our area killed the remaining chickens in the broad daylight. It was difficult to part with them (more like pets) especially for my daughter. For me, chickens, the way they are cultivated and dependent represent the old energy/consciesness which needed to be let go for new to come in.

With Love,

Anatoly

Hi All =)

Wow - Aspasia - thank you for the beautiful and tender sharing of your cat's transition. It was deeply touching to hear about your connection <3.

I love all of your stories of your power animals...Incidentally I popped in a new shop yesterday in an area of town I am not usually in and it was called "The White Owl". =)

For me the bee has been assisting me. She has come up over and over lately...in uncanny ways. At the same time, I am feeling inspired to form community around what inspires me. Right now that's looking like gathering some people I know and friends of theirs that may resonate to select a book and gather to work with the energies evoked...so some discussion, but then to also meditate and express creatively what has been brought up. Everyone can bring a vegan dish and we can start building a soulful conscious community - I know it will evolve and this feels like an exciting starting point.

The bee is about community, but to me also a bit of magic, harmony, balance, creativity and defying logic. Creative expression feels so important to me at the moment...and sharing in that with others - drawing together a tribe of sorts.

Much love,

Jen

Hi all,

such an interesting topic and closely related to what we discussed in the 'sword of truth' forum. Thanks Aspasia for the push, it seems timely for me to find more clarity about animals and how everything works together in this world.

The Crane has for a while been an especially powerful animal for me. There are some Qi Gong exercises where you stand one legged and spread your wings like a crane, very majestic, willful and strong, yet calm and balanced. It feels like it radiates wisdom.

Just about a week ago my mum surprisingly gifted me a towel with depictions of flying cranes, which i happily took with me to Mali. At this time the crane steadily reminds me to be calm and to stay in my center - and to patiently observe my surroundings and how the landscape unfolds.

Lots of sun for you,

Thomas

When I think of the sense of the power animals provide us, the magnificent reflections and reminders, it simply expands my heart. No complexities, no mind games, just pure authenticity, that then resonates how to be.

White owl has become my power animal in more recent years - 'he' appears especially in times where illumination is necessary. Of course owl is watching with 360 degrees awareness and sees especially clearly in the dark.

What power animals are noticing at this time and what do they say?

Hey Aspasia!

Your story brought here, your moment in time with this is just beautiful to me. Animals really do bring the most profound into our lives don't they!

Makes me just want to sit with you and hold my hands out for you. Smile and bring shine through the tears. Cats, animals in general really do bring amazing gifts to our lives don't they?!

Thank you so much for sharing this, if it wasn't for the newsletter this morning that I received I don't think I would of known this was even here. To me it seems that you have now gained a very loving guardian in spirit.

Ok before I go getting so wordy here I'll just say thank you again for sharing this and that I'm sending you so much love!

Wyndè

p.s anyone interested about a story of a dying child, saved by a kitten that came out of nowhere with a tail that looked like a lightning strike?! True story.. all my stories are nearly unreal, yet truth. Otherwise I think I'll just sit and weave a basket full of love for ya'll instead.
