Center: The animal spirit that appears in the center of the Medicine Wheel reflects who you are at this point in time.
Horse
When Horse came back to the Americas, he brought with him the ability to move rapidly from place to place - and it's this rapid movement that he brings to you today. Get up, get out of the rut you've created. Grab Horse's mane, pull yourself onto his back and let him carry you across the plains of your life. The time for being stuck is over.
North: The animal that appears in the North shows you how to walk your talk. Here lies your connection with your Higher Self.
Raccoon
This masked bandit can make you laugh with his antics, or make you angry when you realize he's made off with your food! Raccoon is incredibly curious - to the point that he'll walk into a potentially dangerous situation just to see what's up. Like Raccoon, are there situations you're barging into before you have all the information? Might want to re-think this one.
East: This animal reveals the direction you need to take in order to gain clarity about your present situation.
Buffalo
Buffalo has come snorting into your life today to bring a message of great hope. Buffalo sacrificed every part of his physical body to support those who hunted him - but he also gave his spirit. And, it's that spirit of hope, abundance, and a bright future that he brings to you today. If you are experiencing a troubled journey, help is here.
South: This animal explores issues dealing with your inner child, and shows the energy needed to trust your own process.
Fox
Fox medicine represents the ability to blend in. She can change colors to blend with the seasons - becoming almost invisible against a backdrop of snow or foliage. Fox also has an amazing sense of smell that enables her to sniff out dangerous situations. Be like a Fox - street smart and safety savvy - don't call attention to yourself as today is a day of watch and wait.
West: The animal that appears in the West holds the answer to your present challenge.
Turtle
Turtle carries his home on his back, and his question to you today is whether your life is weighed down with "things" that serve no purpose. Everyone loves buying stuff, but do you use shopping, spending, and the acquisition of "things" as a substitute for passion, conviction, commitment? It's worth thinking about, isn't it?
