Sometimes, in my meditation, I have the most unusual interactions with animals. This post is about Crab and comes from a meditation journal from several years ago.
******************************
Crabs typically walk sideways (a behaviour which gives us the word crabwise). This is because of the articulation of the legs which makes a sidelong gait more efficient. – Wikipedia
Crab also moves forward and backward. Crab says that motion, regardless of the direction, is still motion. Motion carries you as you work through your purpose. Purpose is simply taking action, doing what you know you need to do without the prompting or without following other’s expectations.
When you are in motion, you are searching. Although you may believe that you know the destination, along the way, the destination may change. Thus, you are ever watching for the signs that move you along.
Crab is always looking for food and for safety. She tells you that along the journey that you are taking, life will be better if you remember to care for yourself, as part of safety, and that eating the foods that suit your body will also ensure your safety and health. Specialists and doctors all have different ideas of what the best foods are. You can tell what foods best serve you by simply holding them to your heart and hearing/feeling/knowing or seeing that the food suits you, or not.

Thanks for reading this blog post. Sharing is good if it is kind and either has questions or tells about an experience. (Rudeness and profanity are excluded.)
