Center: The animal spirit that appears in the center of the Medicine Wheel reflects who you are at this point in time.

Sasquatch

Sasquatch

Is Big Foot real or a hoax? It doesn't really matter, because he has ambled into your reading to remind you of life's mysteries. Not everything can be explained, not everything can be touched - but that doesn't mean it don't exist. Suspend your logic for a bit, and be open to the mystery.

North: The animal that appears in the North shows you how to walk your talk. Here lies your connection with your Higher Self.

Heron

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.

East: This animal reveals the direction you need to take in order to gain clarity about your present situation.

Ant

Ant

Ant is dutiful, patient, industrious and focused. If you ever put an obstacle in the middle of an ant trail, you'll notice that ant will go over it, around it, or even under it - but ant will NOT let the obstacle drive him backwards. Above all, ant is a team player, and knows that if each member of the team does his assigned task, the team will succeed. Do you have goals that are best met by team effort? If so, get the other players off the bench and let them into your game.

South: This animal explores issues dealing with your inner child, and shows the energy needed to trust your own process.

Wolf

Wolf

Wolf can survive either as a loner or as part of a pack, and he howls to remind you that you have to balance the needs of others with the needs of the self. If you're giving yourself away to your own detriment, you are living in opposition to Wolf medicine. Return to balance - and begin feeding your emotions, your mind, and your body.

West: The animal that appears in the West holds the answer to your present challenge.

Moose

Moose

Moose represents incredible strength and longevity, as well as the ability to see the future. Moose antlers are among the largest of the antlered animals, and are like psychic antennae - giving Moose amazingly developed hearing, smell, and depth perception. Moose is bellowing at you to open your third eye and stop pretending that you don't know what's about to happen.
