Your Self Overall

Mockingbird

Mockingbird

Mockingbirds are master imitators, and can mimic the calls of many other birds. They're also fearless protectors of their nest, and will attack any bird (no matter how large) to protect their young. Mockingbird's lesson for you today is twofold: to listen to how you might be mimicking others - instead of listening to your own true voice; and to examine the value of what you defend. Hmmm?

Matters Concerning Your Home (The Moon Card)

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.

Matters Concerning Business, Skills and Integrity (The Card of Mercury)

Porcupine

Porcupine

Porcupine has appeared in your reading today to bring a message of innocence and trust. Although Porcupine can throw quills when cornered, he is gentle, loving, and non-aggressive. Is there an area of your life that need Porcupine energy? Have you lost the ability to trust??

Matters Concerning Love (The Card of Venus)

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.

Matters Concerning Hostility, Opposition and Aggression (The Card of Mars)

Magpie

Magpie

Ancient culture associate Magpies with excellent fortune - so it looks like you've got something really terrific coming into your life today. However, you may need to search a little to understand the true gift that's being presented. Pay attention to omens, messages, the clouds, feathers, bird song - your fortune is hidden in those subtle messages. Opportunity is knocking at your door - will you answer?

Matters of Finance, Acquisition and Wealth (The Card of Jupiter)

Lizard

Lizard

Are you dreaming a dream that's big enough? If Lizard has appeared before you today, the gauntlet has been thrown down, the challenge made. Stop hiding your light beneath a rock - be willing to be bigger than life, to dream bigger than your imagination, to throw caution to the wind, and aim for the target you've spent a lifetime avoiding.

Matters of the Intellect (The Card of Saturn)

Otter

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?

The Outcome

Frog

Frog

Frog Rivet! Something in your life needs cleansing, and frog is here to help. Frog is traditionally associated with rain - that powerful force of Nature that can flood, nurture, heal, or drown. If Frog appears in your reading, you're being asked to examine what is stagnating in your life - then ask Frog to help you let it go. Need to cry? Jump in the shower and let Frog Medicine do its work.
