My Spiritual Power Animal...

For a while I've wondered what my power animal was... the first one I acquired was on a misc. website that declared it was a "Bull Shark"... that seemed rather strong for me and so I was determined to find out what it TRULY is. At a recent "More Truth Will Set You Free" workshop with Elka Boren (a Shaman) we were all curious about our Power Animal... and when she told me mine, I was a little surprised... but then as I thought about it, not so much. Because as fate would have it... my Power Animal has been with me all through life (in beads, jewelry, history) and I've always had an interest in this animal.


So anyway... here's a description of this animal. Maybe you can guess what it is (Don't peek at the picture!!)! :-D


She who seems to move as slowly as the earth itself, who travels its own path in its own time. One of the lessons is to slow down. She who lives a very long time and who has been on earth longer than any other vertebrate animal, has all the time in the world.


She carries its house on its back, and when it feels attacked it withdraws into its protective shell. This can remind us that we carry within ourselves our own protection. It is also a reminder of the importance of going within. We need to learn to withdraw not only when we feel threatened by the outside world, but in order to contemplate, to decide what our next direction will be.

Slow-moving, contemplative this animal can also be described as grounded. When we feel as if things are happening too fast, or as if there's too much to do, when we are great at starting projects and not so great at completing them, we can call on the energy of this animal.

To be grounded doesn't mean to be stuck in one place. She travels very close to the earth and is intimately connected with the currents of Mother Nature's energy. Because it moves so slowly it has the time to appreciate all of her creations.

So can we when we take the time that is always there, when we move more slowly along our own paths and enjoy the journey.

Have any idea now? It's:

Interesting Love Links...

I've been adding some Love Links lately to the right... have found some interesting & "free" card readings!! We always like something "free", don't we? '-D

The site with the Color Wisdom cards is really a wonderful & fun site! There are gift sets w/intention candles, candles & jewelry, gratitude jewelry, and (wisdom) cards & candles! I've really enjoyed getting to know the owner of the site, Tori Hartman; including all the other yummy things she offers!

There's also a "free" angel card reading... these can be fairly accurate as well! There are also "free" healing card readings on the same site.

I've also listed a variety of "Unity" websites... depending on where you are (in or outside the Keys). Do you know what Unity is? Have you ever heard of it? Unity is spiritual but not religious. Unity honors the universal truths in all religions and respects each individual's right to choose a spiritual path. Check out the "Unity" link for lots of great information in a spiritual way!

When you visit... keep an eye on the right side as it will develop more fully in time! Feel free to suggest other interesting sites that you're familiar with!

Metaphysical Connection...

I had the good fortune to connect with someone a few weeks back who is highly metaphysically charged! We connected and could relate very easily on a metaphysical level... understand what each was talking about. There aren't many people that you can really do this with, not here anyway.

I met this man over a year ago when he stopped into my shop & left his card. Little did I realize that we would cross paths again... at the library (where I was going to check my e-mail - see my other blog: ChockFullofPurity for Electrical INfrequencies). I feel very strong in the belief that we all have something to learn from whomever comes into our lives, we attract various individuals because they mirror ourselves, and so we may see some things we don't especially like in someone... and then again, see other things we DO like.

After our various discussions, I felt that part of the reason we met was his apparent need for guidance to advance further in his endeavor to create his art. It's amazing how clearly I could "see" the "signs" all around him, the doors were all open for him to advance through, there were even selling opportunities developing, yet he was finding himself unable to move forward. In meeting me, I was able to put him in touch with another stained glass artist who offered classes... so he started taking classes and will be finishing his first piece in the next few weeks! I'm looking forward to seeing it! Yet, he is still somewhat hesitant about following through.

I've learned that if one doesn't go in the direction that they're meant to go in (in the direction of their life purpose), they can become very unhappy in time.

I have to add here that it was very interesting how "open" he was, how metaphysically & spirtually open he was. He is a very gentle man. If you've ever gone through a consistent healing process of opening yourself up, releasing the past, & moving on... you can sense people who are very open and people who are not (those who are bound up by past misc. they haven't let go of... and they are burdened by it all). It's a very interesting experience to feel this "openness" in an individual... it hasn't happened very often (for me) since most people seem to be closed, and burdened.

I continue to enjoy the meetings I have with this person... purely for the clean, spiritual, & metaphysical aspects of the visits!

Welcome...

...to my new Blog! It's a place for sharing love, metaphysical & spiritual readings, angel sightings and help... so much to share!!

Thanks for visiting, reading, and sharing if you'd like! :-)
