Center: The animal spirit that appears in the center of the Medicine Wheel reflects who you are at this point in time.
Wolverine
Wolverine is thought to be a bridge between the physical and spirit worlds. He has the ability to survive in the most difficult terrains - and his message to you is of inner strength. Have you forgotten just how powerful you really are? If so, it's time to refocus and re-dedicate - and remember that Wolverine medicine runs through your blood.
North: The animal that appears in the North shows you how to walk your talk. Here lies your connection with your Higher Self.
Antelope
Antelope medicine is one of right action. If you were to visit Northern Plains today, you would see groups of antelope scattered about the fields and hills. However they are so quiet and unmoving that (from a distance) they resemble stones. But, get too close and they move like lightening. Antelope asks you: are you being still when you should be moving, or moving when stillness is required?
East: This animal reveals the direction you need to take in order to gain clarity about your present situation.
Heron
Is your life in a state of balance? If not, long-legged Heron has flown in today to help you. Because Heron is a water bird, he is most often associated with emotions. He stands motionless, almost in a trance, his body mirrored in the water below. Take a few moments today to be like Heron - be quiet, go within, and discover the answer to your questions.
South: This animal explores issues dealing with your inner child, and shows the energy needed to trust your own process.
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.
West: The animal that appears in the West holds the answer to your present challenge.
Black Swan
Wherever the Black Swan appears in your reading you can expect unexpected and unpredictable events to majorly impact your life in that aspect. Beyond noting that the influences Black Swan indicates will be extraordinarily large in scope, it may be difficult to tell if the fortune it foretells will be good or bad. Black Swan affected events may begin so subtly that they are very difficult to identify. When trying to discover what the Black Swan portends for you, look for events that do not occur in your life regularly or at all.
