Skunk in Black and White

Skunk says that not everything in life is black and white.  In truth, most things have four or five angles, not just two.  Skunk knows because most people think that Skunk is bad, has rabies, and smells.  They can’t seem to find anything good about him.  

Skunk would like you to know about his “good” side.  Have insects plaguing your fields?  Skunk will clean them up.  He will deter moles from making holes in pastures and lawns.  And, he is a natural predator for frogs and snakes.  

If Skunk is showing up in your life, it may be to remind you that your view of the world is very narrow, and that many life situations are grey.

Skunk On Setting New Ways

 

I was deep into my meditation space and not really noticing anything, when I heard what sounded like digging.  I then heard humming.  As I looked around, I saw a Skunk trudge through the snow, stop and dig, and then trudge some more. 

Skunk said:

• New opportunities are here, and if I sleep through them, then me and my kind will miss out.
• Snow is simply water in a different format.  I like the snow, and to walk out in it is to remind myself that I need not follow what others of my kind do.
• When the weather is warm, it is time to explore.  I am exploring what is available in a different environment.  This makes me stronger than one who accepts what is.
• By walking in the cold, I thicken my fur.  This keeps me warmer.  I am setting new links in my body.  My body remembers a time when I walked in the cold.  I am setting a new way.

Many blessings,

Skunk’s Support

One of the things that Creator worked with me on is to understand how to change our lives.  Creator lead me through a meditation-journey.  Part of the journey was meeting up with a Spirit Animal guide who will help me through the changes.

My spirit guide was Skunk.  I thought this was odd because I have an aversion to very strong smells.  However, as we sat on the beach of the river, side by side, I grew accustomed to Skunk’s odour, and actually even found it comforting.

Some of the ideas that Skunk conveyed were:

• You need to be di-stinct.  Be comfortable being different.  Distinguish your self by your smell, your appearance, and your actions.
• You need to follow your in-stinct.  When something smells wrong, know that it is wrong and do not look to fix it.  Walk away!
• If you are indi-stinct, it is difficult to be a teacher-leader.  This is the time to show your skills and to share them.

Skunk went on to share some other thoughts that I need to sort through for a while.  

If you have thoughts on Skunk’s appearance by my side, please send me your comments.

Many blessings,

Judy
