Spirit Animal – Rabbit Says “Hop to it!”

Picture from liberalbaptistrev.wordpress.com

I was driving home from the grocery store, traveling down Deer Ridge Drive, when a big rabbit hopped across the road, slowly, and stopped and looked at me. 

I said, “What the heck?”

Rabbit paused on the curb, and then hopped up onto a lawn and turned and looked at me.

What I heard was - “Hop to it!”  And then I heard something like, “Feed us!”

I almost hit an oncoming car because I was trying to watch rabbit in my rear view mirror.  I was a bit confused about what was going on.  I reviewed what I had been doing.  I just finished getting tomato plants and then grocery shopping.  This seemed important.  I put my thoughts on hold so I could drive with awareness.

As I carried in my groceries, I wondered about the phrase “feed us”.  I let go of my conscious mind/ego, and let my thoughts drift until I found Rabbit.  Here is the conversation.

“You did get my message.  I broadcast it so often and most humans do not hear it.  Humans are so odd!  They hurry around like we rabbits do, and do not seem to have time to talk, to hear, to learn. We rabbits hop with purpose – to find food, to find shelter and safety from Hawk and Coyote, and all the dogs and cats around.  We hop to mate, to play, to honour the One That Feeds Us (Earth). 

Rabbits fend for ourselves. We watch you, and you humans do not seem to know how to care for your selves.  We have favourite patches of grass or shoots, or small trees that we love to eat.  You do not.  Why is it that you do not have patches of earth by your lairs to grow food in? (She means gardens.)  Why do you carry stuff that smells like food in funny skins? (She means bags.) 

When you eat the same foods as us, and throw out what you do not eat, you feed us, and the other birds and animals.  When you eat funny foods that are not real, you cannot feed us.  We need you to feed us with what you have left over because this is the circle of food and of life.  With the funny foods and not water, (Not water is what Rabbit calls soft drinks and juice.) you humans put a funny feel (vibration) in the ground.  This funny feel affects the land and the greater mind (Oneness).  We cannot talk to you like we used to do. 

We tell you to go out and walk on the land, to plant gardens, to feel the changes that are coming.  We say, “dance in the moonlight like rabbit does”, and you will feel whole.

Spirit Animals – Dog – My New Best Friend Is A Man

 

Sometimes we hear stories about animals and we shake our heads in wonderment and often, in disbelief.  This is one story that will have your head shaking, and, at the same time, leave you with a big smile on your face.

First, a stray dog gets scared as he runs through an elderly couple’s yard.  Second, stray dog tries to jump a page wire fence, and then gets hung up in the wire.  When I say hung up, I mean upside down.  Third, the house owners call the police to come and help them. Fourth, the policeman films his work in freeing the dog.

This short movie is the story of the rescue of the dog.  Watch it to the end.  pogpog.com/v/dog-surprises-officer-after-being-freed-from-a-fence/

Spirit Animal – Sheep Says “Count Your Blessings”

Picture of sheep comes from www.animalspapper.com

Last night, I could not sleep!  I tossed and turned, and I tried all of the different mediations, breathing exercises, and mind calming techniques that I knew. (And, I know a lot!)  At 3:00pm, I finally tried counting sheep. 

I saw a path, with me sitting on the fence, counting the sheep as the sheep filed by in single file.  I was on sheep number 15, and waiting for sheep number 16 to appear.  She walked up the path, and stopped and looked at me, and began to talk.

“Why are you sitting on that fence counting sheep?  Why don’t you come and walk with us out to the pasture.  Why don’t you enjoy nature instead of simply sitting perched like a bird?  Does counting sheep really make you feel sleepy?  Don’t we all look lovely and white? We get better colours when we walk in dream time with people.  Yes, you are dreaming – you are actually in that in between state, between true awake and true sleep.” 

And she paused for a breath and started again.

“There are four hundred and forty-three sheep in this flock.  Our job is to help people fall asleep.  We all signed up for this task because it is one of great service, and by being in service, we sheep are all allowing our souls to evolve – some of us faster than the human souls, I might add.  This is a fun job. We see all sorts of people around the world that have this particular past time.  We do not often get to Africa, China, Russia or South America.  We used to be confined to Europe, and then to parts of North America.  I have been to the Alps, the Andes, the Rocky Mountains, the Appalachian Mountains, and even to the depths of the Pacific and the Atlantic to work my special brand of magic sleep! 

You humans are so funny.  Sometimes we have a good chuckle at your experiences that cause you not to sleep.  Everything has happened before, and everything will happen again.  Everything that happens to you has happened to one of us in the flock, at one  time.  What we dream time sheep have learned to do is to look at each of you humans and your experiences, and then bless you and your experience.  That blessing is actually part of the magic that we work.  When you are feeling low, we suggest that you count your blessings. 

Do you know that a blessing is anything that benefits you?  It may be food, water, a hug, finding a penny, listening to music or meeting someone incredibly gifted like all of us sheep.   If you move through the blessings, and count them, you will find that you have so many in a day, that you simply take them for granted.  It is the nature of this world to provide you with blessings.  Blessings are bestowed out of love.  Why don’t you try counting your blessings now?  Sleep child!”

I don’t remember anything after that until my dog, Magic, woke me up this morning.

Spirit Animal – Giraffe Gives a “Heads Up!”

Several nights ago, I had a dream where Giraffe came in to speak to me.

First, the image that I had was of me standing on a path outside a very tall fence.  I was not sure where I was.  Then as I looked around, I realized that I must be in a type of zoo or animal compound. Where in the world it was, I am not sure.  Then I heard, “Heads up!”

I knew that I needed to look up.  Standing so that their legs were almost like part of the fence, were three giraffes.  Two were quite tall, and one was shorter by several feet.  They grinned down at me.  Then one leaned over the fence and putting his face right against mine, sniffed me.  He popped his head back up, and said, “She smells okay.” 

  Giraffe picture from i.telegraph.co.uk

I was a bit taken aback.  I think I always smell good except when I have finished a hard work-out.  His mate popped her head over, and kissed the top of my head.  I felt tingles.  I looked up and asked what I was doing here.  Madame Giraffe said, “We called you because you don’t write about us very often, and yet you love us, and send us great thoughts and blessings.  You worry about how we are making out in the wild, and what we will do when the big changes come.”

She was right – I do worry about Giraffes and Elephants, and all kinds of animals.  I did not realize that they were picking up on that energy.

Madame Giraffe went on to say that people need to pay more attention to the giraffe.  They make great guides.  They see things from quite high up, and see patterns in the way people move and the way energies move.  If Giraffe is invited in as a Spirit Animal, it will tell you when there are good energies around you and where to walk/drive to avoid negative energy patterns.  Giraffe moves without getting caught up in the drama of petty things.  Giraffe would like to see each of us avoid drama, and move more in an isolated fashion as does Giraffe. 

Giraffe’s energy is constantly cleansed by the trees where Giraffe spends much time grazing at the tree tops.  Her advice is to find a tree and sit in it, and enjoy the cleansing effect of the tree’s leaves vacuuming all the unhealthy energy from around you. 

According to Giraffe, most people have a short sightedness when it comes to seeing around them.  Giraffe asks you to try to see higher and farther, to see beyond the limits of your mortal eyes.  If you have trouble doing this, ask Giraffe for assistance.

Giraffes says to stop trying to minimize life.  She says, “Stick your neck out once in a while.”  Life is not about being completely safe – it is about experiencing life and taking chances and growing. 

May you have great giraffe experiences!

This feels comfortable to me.  How does it feel to you?

Ancestors Speak – June 1 2010

June is the time of hot sun, growing, and enjoying.  Our Ancestors scheduled several celebrations that lead up to Summer Solstice, generally celebrated on June 20, 21, or 22, depending on where you are in the world.

One of the celebrations, held June 1st or 2nd, was a gratitude celebration that honoured the Goddess of Growing Things, and the Sun God for helping things grow.  The day and night was filled with fun, thanks, and love.  In fact, many couples married on this day.  And, now couples marry all through the month of June.

Nature gets in the act because so many birds lay their eggs, and even hatch them during June because this gives the young a chance to grow to maturity before fall, and the cold, set in.  If the bird is migratory, then the young have time to prepare for the flight.

This year, the Ancestors urge us to be more prepared for the fall and for the cold.  They say that the summer will be short, and that the cold will come early. In Calgary, we still have cold, although we have not had snow since the weekend.  Perhaps it is time to stock up on staple goods, flashlights and batteries, or even candles and matches.  Set aside a store of water.  Being prepared is not just a Boy Scout motto.
