Animal Spirit Guides & Totems
Have animals been trying to tell you something...Animal spirit totems are very personal. They are viewed in different ways according to who each of us are as individuals. The basic principle of an animal totem is that an animal spirit gives us insight into ourselves. We are given a glimpse of the divine powers at work in our world. And through that connection, we can transcend to a place of healing for ourselves and other people.The author of Animal-Speak, Ted Andrews, defines animal totems in this way: "Any natural object, animal, or being whose phenomena and energy you feel closely associated with during your life". A totem is considered to be a power, sometimes called 'medicine.' It walks down our path with us on our spiritual and personal journey in this lifetime. We can tap into the energies of the animal totems for strength, healing for ourselves, and for others. Higher level beings, along with our Spirit Guide, are said to shapeshift, transforming their energy bodies into animals to send us important messages. These animal guides show us the way, helping to teach us what we need to know. Have you been attracted to particular animals over the course of your lifetime? Do you own figurines of a certain animal, hang pictures up of them, watch them at the zoo? Do you see a particular animal on a regular basis and, at times, think it seems out of the ordinary for this to happen? Many of us overlook and miss the animals when they are speaking to us. But the infinite is patient. If we take the time and effort to connect with Mother Earth and her animal children, we can learn to harness the medicine that comes through these wonderous and intelligent creatures of nature. They can enlighten our perceptions, spiritually and personally, and help us grow as people. And through us, this new found source of energy can be shared with others in the world.
Animal totems and guides choose us according to what is necessary for our growth at a particular time. It may also be that you have one main power totem who does not just, come and go, but encompasses "who we are," all the time. This animal, generally, will be the one who you have felt most strongly connected with during your life, but not necessarily so. How to develop a relationship with your animal totems: Study the animals' behaviors, hunting habits, natural instincts, life rythym cycles and how it lives. Honor them by keeping physical reminders of them near you. Such items can include statues and figurines, photos and posters, and pictures that you draw yourself, and so on. It maybe that your animal(s) do not live in your geographical area. These physical symbols of your Animal Guides will work as well. Meditate and calm your mind, ask the Animal Spirit for help, and you will draw naturally what is needed. Everything in nature is connected... There is one hoop for everything, and everything has it's place and purpose. You can find your place and purpose, which may be ever changing. Study the location of where your animal(s) live, and the nearby plants, streams, lakes, rocks, stones, cliffs, trees, etc. By doing so you keep the sacred balance of all things and learn all there is to know about your totems. Make an effort to communicate with all the animals around you. Pay attention to your surroundings and notice what animal(s) speak to you. You will be on your way to connecting with your personal animal totems, if you do these things...

Miracles It is my personal view that the reason we call things that we don't understand "miracles" is because we are trying to understand them within a very limited framework. This framework is that of our beliefs which have been based largely on scientific inquiry and also exclusively on the use of our intellect or rational mind.

Enthusiam And The Spirit In this article, I would like deal with one specific aspect of attitude, that is, "enthusiasm." To have an enthusiastic attitude about we do is essential. Trailing Clouds of Glory Most of us are familiar with the inner criticism and gnawing self-doubt we hear when we want to take the next step in our work or life. Rather than staying stymied we can observe our thoughts, let them go and return to the truth of who we really are. William Wordsworth reminds us of our one true home: Letting Go of Your Past Once you become saved and born again, the Bible tells us that we have now become new creations in Jesus Christ. All things have been made new. Our slates are now wiped clean and we now have a brand new start in this life if we are willing to properly work with the Lord in allowing Him to raise us up in His grace, knowledge and power. Here To Stay I am disturbed by the tendency of some people to view Christianity as a trend rather than a way of life. Some take it to the next level and try to make it some sort of a secret club. If you doubt me, just look at the reaction to the 2004 election results. It didn't take the media long to start harping on how "Evangelical Christians" turned the tide and were trying to establish their morality through politics. Pretty soon, newspapers and magazines were filled with angry diatribes of how we had no right to push our beliefs on them, and how we are trying to establish a "wacky theocracy." The only thing more disturbing than this are the people that pick and choose popular aspects of the faith that they believe promise a quick, miracle cure for their problems. They will accept good things like peace, grace, and salvation, but ignore the difficult things like patience, obedience, and sacrifice. The first time they have to wait or give up something, they're out of the game. Building The Body of Christ As a walked across the gym floor with perspiration coming from my brow, my wife, Denise said "honey, you're a bodybuilder". I looked at her with amazement was my wife just getting it. I had been building this body for more than twenty years. Then again she said, "You're a bodybuilder", it was then that I got the revelation she was speaking of the body of Christ. She was saying what Paul was inspired to say in Ephesians 4:12 "to prepare God's people for works of service, so the body of Christ may be built up." Since that day neither of our lives will be the same.

Why Worry The possibility of almost 400 Old Testament prophesies coming to fulfillment in the incarnation of Jesus Christ, apart from God's sovereign control of history, staggers the imagination. The certainty that God planned the coming of His son into the world can offer stabilizing support to our faith in our Lord. Anamchara - The Value of Ritual Let me explain my approach to the practice of ritual. For me ritual is an act of presence. It is presenting myself fully in this moment. It is bringing focused attention to what is now. This is assisted by symbols and representations that I imbue with meaning. This is a feeling engagement with what is of real value in this life. Awakening from the Dream, Divine Source through Barbara Rose Greetings my Dear Beloved Souls Stress & Spirituality, Part 1 Stress & Spirituality ? How Spirituality Affects Stress Levels The Flow Of Money The more we worry about money, and who's asking for it, and why their asking, and should they be asking, and should I be listening, and judging others, then judging their ideas and their work and their very existence....the more we condemn ourselves to a life of pain, worry and confusion. Most people do not realize they are doing this to themselves. Everyone on the planet, regardless of their calling is perfectly entitled to be paid for their time and expertise. Conquer Your Fears I cringed lower into the seat of my grey metal desk, yearning for the faded yellow floor to swallow me into oblivion. A crimson heat spread from my forehead to my neck; my legs trembled uncontrollably. I struggled to bring my lurching stomach under control - vomiting all over my classmates was about the only thing that could worsen this nightmare.
