The Vision Realized
Bear
Bear represents a time of reflection and stillness - a time of entering the inner cave of Self to contemplate life's challenges. Bear often appears during times of confusion and unrest - those unsettling moments when you turn to everyone you know for answers - everyone except yourself. Go within, ask the hard questions - then listen.
The Next Step
Badger
Badger is a ferocious opponent, unwilling to back down over any issue. Unfortunately, this unwavering stance leads some Badgers to their demise. If Badger has dug into your reading, he is asking whether you are fighting the right fight. Is this issue the hill you're willing to die on, or are you fighting for no other reason than pure stubbornness? Think about it.
Wisdom Currently At Work
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.
The Cause
Turkey
Has turkey gobbled his way into your life today? If so he brings a message of sacrificing for the greater good. To some indigenous tribes, Turkey represents the spirit of the giveaway - a ceremony where those who have more give to those who have less, thus "sacrificing" for others. If Turkey helps you feel the spirit of giving, who can you help?
Conquered Challenge With Lingering Influence
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.
A Strength You Will Need
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.
Unknown Factor
Spider
Spider represents a connection between past and future, to remind you that the web you weave today is the web you will inhabit tomorrow. Are you spinning a balanced future? Spider is also a creator, spinning stories just as easily as she does a web. Spider in your reading asks you to consider the future you are weaving - does it include your biggest dreams?
