Pink flamingos on someone’s lawn are a common site in North America. Yet, these birds are not native to North America, even though every zoo has an exhibit of flamingos. They actually live in in Southern Europe, Africa, India, Madagascar, Central & South America and the Caribbean West Indies.
American Flamingo from Wikipedia
Flamingo, however, carries many messages from Great Spirit to share with those who are meant to see her. If Flamingo does not eat the proper foods, she turns white. The white connects her to Spirit, and yet shows that her diet is lacking, and may indicate that she is close to shifting from this plane to the next. Flamingo may be an early warning for those that abuse their bodies, a warning that Death is fickle. Flamingo has a black tipped beak and several black wing feathers, again, indicating a link to mystery and magic. If Flamingo looks at you and stretches out her neck and her wings, she is indicating to take off in your study of mysticism.
However, she warns that one must stay in a large group of like minded people for safety and for strength of the energy. Each Flamingo blends with the rest, one seldom sees a lone Flamingo any where out side the flock. Flamingo counsels that one can be innovative without being the leader. It is very important to hold to one’s integrity and truth while in the flock, and yet be one with the flock.
Flamingo has large eyes and a small brain so the individual bird may have some difficulty in interpreting a situation. She relies on the knowledge of the flock and therefore, taps into the community consciousness or “herd mentality”. The message is clear to those who tend to want to be loners and do things on their own. Community and the synergy of the minds in community will achieve more than any single individual. The individual needs to learn to work in harmony with the group and use the group to achieve a better quality of life. Those that stay alone tend to die sooner.
Perhaps Flamingo is coming to you in a dream. As she walks along, she wades through water that is up to the elbow on her leg. Now, she is sending a message that you need to be like her, and wade through the water of emotion. What is it you have not dealt with? Often, Flamingos legs are longer than her body. The idea is that one can always touch bottom and stay grounded if one is surrounded by a community.
May your Flamingo message bring you good medicine.
