If you want to know what your power animals are - look around your house and see what types of animal ornaments, pictures, or symbols you have hanging on walls or sitting in a conspicuous place.  Look at what calendars you buy.

When people come to my house, they know from our bathrooms and the various towels and pictures, that I love whales.  Whale, as a  Spirit Animals has been with me since I can remember.  When I am on the east or west coast, I will always see whales daily.  They come to chat.  Most often, they appear in dreams.

If Whale is showing up for you in one of its forms, then you know that you are being asked to "shine your light" and accept your spiritual path as part of who you are.

Whale also brings other messages.  Whale is about community.  Most whales will stay within a pod, or at least swim in pairs.  Whale brings a reminder to you that it is easier to do things with a friend or with a group.  There is no need to do activities alone.  With the input of friends, the combined effort (intelligence and brawn) will produce an outcome much different than could be predicted.

What if you already have many friends and the group is not feeling right, and Whale shows up?  Whale's message to you then is to look at the group and what is being communicated and how it is being communicated.  Whale can send soundings to its family through vast stretches of ocean.  If you are feeling isolated in the group, then Whale is telling you that you may no longer fit with the group, and you may not feel as safe and secure as you once did.  It is now time to move on and find your new community. 

Whale also represents travel for it will travel great distances to feed and to calf.  Some whales feed in the Arctic and do their birthing off the shores of the Hawaiian Islands.  Whale is reminding you that travel offers new adventures for you, as well as opening up the environment so that the Universe may use your skills in another area.

The legend of the Whale is that it represents an aspect of Mother Earth.  So, if Whale shows up for you, it is a reminder that you need to be out in Nature - you need to ground. If you are close to the sea or ocean, Whale suggests that you go for a swim, and dive into the emotions that are holding you back from your life.

May life be a "Whale" of a success for you!
