Working with your Animal Signs

Welcome back to my April Blog.

Did you realize that nature speaks to us about our current life lessons constantly? Ever wondered why sometimes in nature you see specific animals often? Or why you simply love a particular animal or group of animals? Why, sometimes when you dream or meditate, do you get recurring ones with animals in them? Why you tend to keep noticing certain animals in pictures or films? Or even get refered in animal language at times ie “she sings like a lark”? Take note! All elements of nature including animals bring to our lives wonderful messages through what they represent. All you need do is note the animal and then research the meaning of them via animal meanings or totems online or in wonderful books such as Ted Andrews’ “Animal Speak” or “Power Animals” by Steven Farmer etc.

This animal guidance is like direct access to the subtleties and deeper content in your life, and offers you a direct source of personal reading for you, assisting your life path navigation.

I recall a while back when I was considering staging a psychic show. I was returning from a beach walk a different route to usual and came upon a turtle with a limb missing, nestled in the sand of a car park. My heart went out to her and feeling her current home unsafe as cars could literally run over her, I relocated her across the road to a pond area I believed more congruent with natural turtle environment.  It felt a sacred kind of act in the moment, and I thought of it the whole way home. I was not long  home when I received a call from a newer client asking for a consult. This is a client of few words but I mentioned the turtle in passing conversation and he in turn said he had a pet turtle and loved them, from that point our conversation took a different turn. At that point I was privately putting together a psychic  and song stage show, a large one promoted by a prominent psychic fair organizer in ACT, and we were short of a lighting technician for the evening, although at that point we had not even considered lighting as it was in formative stages. Within our “turtle” conversation this gentleman mentioned his background in theater lighting and one thing led to the next, we found our lighting man with relative skill and all lights willing to assist at a fantastic fee.

Shortly after, I recall looking in my Ted Andrews book to find that Turtle energy was about opportunity! For which I thanked my guides and turtle for knowing my needs and responding to them before I did with such an obvious connection in such a quick time. It’s was the only time in 5 years in that place that I saw a turtle in the area and I walked regularly in varied routes encompassing the whole area.

I have countless stories of the magnificence of animal magic in my life!

I was reminded again of the significance of animal connection when I visited a healer friend of mine for a treatment a few weeks back. She mentioned seeing a Bat visual around me. This ended up connecting on many levels. Currently where I live is surrounded by fruit Bats, so I’m surrounded by Bat energy. An evening prior I was teaching Tarot and we examined the Devil Cards, and a student enquired about it’s Bat like wings. My partner had just started watching Batman re-runs on TV. When I was younger, my father used to refer to my bedroom as a Bat Cave. Bat energy was definitely connecting with me. My healer friend even pointed out there was a tropical plant of quite unusual features called a Bat Flower I may wish to research.

You may also have some some animal signs stories  -  and feel free to share yours here under comments if you would like. Or ask further question re it.

In any event, I encourage you to each source more animal medicine connection – pay attention to animal signs, and feel the gifts of your life understanding unravel further.
