Center: The animal spirit that appears in the center of the Medicine Wheel reflects who you are at this point in time.
Green Woman
Green Woman has magically floated into your life to remind you of the energy of fertility - fertility for a project, a garden, a love affair or conception. If there is fertile ground, it WILL bear fruit. Green Woman encourages you to practice your own brand of magic, and to appreciate the talents you have that will, in the near future, give birth to a magical creation.
North: The animal that appears in the North shows you how to walk your talk. Here lies your connection with your Higher Self.
Otter
Otter represents one of the most playful feminine energies on earth - and she has swum over into your reading to bring a message of joyful play. If life has been difficult or challenges overwhelming, relax a little - Otter is here to remind you that play is just as important as work - and NOT competitive play, but rather the kind you loved as a child. Hopscotch anyone?
East: This animal reveals the direction you need to take in order to gain clarity about your present situation.
Beaver
Beaver may be one of the hardest working animals on the planet. Beaver is attuned to both earth and water medicine, and is strongly attached to home and family. Beaver appears in your reading to remind you that sometimes there's no substitute for hard work. Make a plan, create a solid foundation, then take the next indicated step.
South: This animal explores issues dealing with your inner child, and shows the energy needed to trust your own process.
Opossum
You've heard the expression "playing possum"? It means to play dead and is derived from Opossum's ability to act in whatever way the situation demands. If it's practical to play dead, so be it; if it's to Opossum's advantage to be aggressive, watch out! Take your cue from this master actor today - and play the role that will serve you best.
West: The animal that appears in the West holds the answer to your present challenge.
Rabbit
Poor Rabbit! No other animal is so associated with fear than Rabbit - that nervous little bunny who hops and leaps at every little sound. Rabbit has come to you today to ask you to have the courage to face whatever difficulties you're having instead of running away to a safe burrow. Face your fears, examine your old "fight or flight" patterns, and determine once and for all to stop hiding away.
