Me thinking








            Scale Wing.  Lepidoptera.  The red admiral was everywhere on Sunday.  My kids caught two in their butterfly net.  The last one had a damaged wing.  We gave it honeysuckle nectar.  It was weird, the stamen magnetically stuck to the red admiral's face.  We watched four eagles soar so high heading to the south in a kind of group.  We also saw a hummingbird fly and sit on a branch and look like a leaf and then whiz by my husband's head.

The number 4, according to Animal Speak, means-foundations, patience, builder in the positive aspect.  The direction, south, means-purification, faith, strength, awakening inner child, overcoming obstacles, playfulness, change, protection, self-sufficiency, trust, resurrection.  The "keynote" for eagles is-illumination of spirit, healing and creation.  Eagles "will teach a balance of being of the earth but not in it."  The eagle has been associated with Jupiter and in Egyptian hieroglyphics, is a symbol for the letter "A".  It is "also a symbol for the soul, the spirit, and the warmth of life."

"The fire of the sun and the clear water are opposite elements brought into harmony in a manner that elicits a change."
 Needs for those with eagle totem-
1, Creativity is a must
2, "[F]acilitate the alchemical process with your life."  what does this mean??
3. "[W]illingness to use your passions to purify (flying into the sun) and to use your abilities even if it means being scorched a little."  And what does THIS mean?!
4. "[W]illingness to seek out the true emotional aspects of oneself and immerse yourself within them."  ...Ok...guess I need to deep dive study to understand what this may mean for me if anything at all.

"The feet of the eagle have four toes.  Four is a traditional symbol for keeping oneself grounded and laying a solid foundation..."  "This reflects the need to stay connected to grasp and utilize the things of the earth."

Meditate on the figure 8.
