Animal magic - The spirit of the Horse

As we wander life's highways we look at the fields beyond and we see the Horse bounding round the grassy lowlands. this animal's spirit reminds us of travel in many ways as all you wanna do on the back of a horse is go a'wandering through the forest. You can find a wonderful view of the world from a horse's back as animals will venture closer than when you are on foot or in a motor!
What else does the horse help us to understand about life, well it's delicate nature. the feminine aspects of life are embodied by this animal and hence we could say "The Goddess". Softness and beauty are two strong aspects to this animal which are equally feminine qualities. The strength of the male animal in a stallion however perhaps shows us that the flip-side "the God" is just as highly attuned in this animal's nature.
how could we put these two aspects into one, how about the "Divine". The horse is a fabulous creature that makes you think of Pegasus or Unicorns, near on the most magical creature alive!
These dreamy aspects to the horse are as important to one's soul as the animal alive and kicking because they are alike magical tales of the animal herself. I am sure it is by getting to know horses in our lives that we will one day dream of a unicorn or seeing Pegasus fly. They as it were protect the magical dimensions of life.
Strength and mercy are qualities we aim to embody and this animal could help us to learn. How do we learn of a totem?
Well there is a plethora of ways to know of an animal, the best being to see them in their natural habitat just doing what they do! By watching carefully how they act and what their mannerisms are you can learn of their nature. See what movements they make and this can be worked into a dnace for shape-shifting. Whats this you ask? Well to become at one with an animal or bird while you are dancing is to truly learn of a totem and how to shape-shift. You really can fly like an eagle, prance like a horse or slither like a snake! Ancient shamans would appear to the tribe in this shapeshifting way.
The way of totem!

Magical creatures are animals and as they are so close to mother nature and the earth they help us to understand Her!
There are many more reasons that animals can become our greatest friends and anyone who has known a cat or dog at home would say so I'm sure! Totem teachings show us that not only can we learn from animals we can live alongside them happily and peacefully and we can learn the way of the shaman.

Blessings of a Shamanka be with you. Blessed be

Thanks is coming from me!

Blessed Be!

Here comes the rain again!

Here comes the rain again!

Falling on my head like a memory

Wish to dive into your ocean

Are you dreaming with me?

The summer sun hides behind the clouds

Suddenly the rain begins to fall

Powering drops at the Earth below

Washing away all our worries
Streaming down creating puddles
Children dance and play
Isn't the world so gay?
Wonders of heaven to behold
Now the story has been told
Greater things to come
Dancing on in the sun
Sunshine after the rain
I see bluebirds flying over the mountains again
Sunshine on a rainy day
Makes my soul trip trip away

Rainbows shining in the heavens
Glory of the Lord
Happy days are here again
Golden world
The light of Ana filling the world
Colour everywhere
Bright and glorious 
Great and true
Let's gaze at that sky so blue
How do I find my pot of gold?
Search and seek 
Dip and dive
Bury your self deep in the Earth
Caves and crystals you will find

Shining light o'er all the world
For the Angels to shine!
Clouds drift across the moon
A different light is coming soon
The stars and moon shine of the Lady's grace
Lighting up your little face
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are?
Shining in the sky above
O'er this blessed world with love
Within the wings of a dove
What love!

Beltane Is Here!

Beltane Moon a'shining

Beams o'er all the world

Dreams uniting lovers

############################################

With a gentle heart I kiss you

With hand I thee caress

Caring, guiding, knowing

How with thee I am blessed

############################################

Minds together as one

One love growing like a tree

A Tree of Life!

May blossom falling

"Like confetti in Our hair"

The fragrance a'mingling

With the gentle breeze

At ease

########################################

Happiness a'plenty

Goodness is wonderful

Amongst all

Gently does it

Bringing fight to cease

Blessings to One and all

Beltane Morn

On a delightful day like this, sun shining, breeze in your face. You start to appreciate the true meaning of PEACE! After all the furore of spring Equinox with Artha, the great She-bear in Our hearts and the Warrior Spirit strong during the time of Aries (linked to the planet Mars)
We deserve a break, a time to rest and recuperate, to look to the future with happiness and delight at the summer ahead. Bright sun on this day of the year, the blessed Beltane, is a wondrous blessing on your world! With summer in our hearts and minds we look to the warmth of the Father Sun, that great and wondrous being of light that cares deeply for Our souls! Fatherly energy represents protection, strength, purpose, poise and brings the loving arms of Our Father to us in the light of the day.

It is always a great blessing to wake in the morning after a good night's sleep rested and restored to celebrate life. Life is everything we know and love and the Sun's light brings a colourful new day at dawn. As the dawn breaks and the world begins to stir, all the beings of the planet unite in one purpose - TO LIVE THEIR LIVES! This is something we can all gel on! Life is a reality that unites us all on this planet. The "All That Is" in the essence of the heavens is a positive and vibrant influence on Our mindfulness. Along the lines of the Butterfly Effect, where it is said that a butterfly flapping it's wings in the rainforest could cause something positive to happen elsewhere on this planet such as a summer storm!!
The "All That Is" is the coherent knowledge and wisdom of all of us in positive thought, word and deed. It is however energetic filled with prayerfulness and great in it's essence. ALL THAT IS! Understood by all of us as being a guide to Our worlds. The humanitarian viewpoint of seeing there to be such a presence in the heavens is a good one. Life as we know it is greatly influenced by the positive guidance of our fellow man or woman or child. So a presence in the heavens that is like a memory of ALL THAT IS! allows us to reach deeper than ever before into beautiful worlds of happiness. We are truly guided by the light of the Heavens always and mankind has much to teach! Everything good that is done by Us is remembered by the heavenly ones and joins into One little world in the heavens above where it is protected by the Lord and Lady's hearts and minds. The All Seeing Eye of the Lord and Lady knows all we ever do and I feel that the Great Beings of heaven above wish to remember all Our good bits!! WE are able to teach Our own family and friends however the presence of the ALL THAT IS means everyone who is prayerful of heaven and Earth will know tha truth when they need to. Meditation is a powerful thing! As we sit quietly in meditation we are touched by the heavens above and all Our prayers are answered as we begin to rise spiritually. Spirituality is a great aspect of Life!

With the summer beginning we are able to see that Our prayers for a brighter day have become real blessings to Our world. This is the most peaceful time of the year and the summer of love ahead is protected by the peace of Beltane's morn. Thank you to all those who pray to keep this so. Peace is LIFE! Life is PEACE! Love UNITES. Unite with LOVE!
