Tiger on Black And White

Not only is this picture very cute, it reminds me that Tiger has a lot to say about things being black and white. 

• The definition of black is defined by white, and the reverse is true.
• Wearing both colours shows that both colours fade to grey.  Grey then, is the combination of the colours, and the place where mixing of the colours happens.
• Being black and white and grey allows one to blend with many landscapes.  Therefore, it is the colour of harmony, if it is allowed to be.
• Spirit cultivates black for grounding with the Earth, and cultivates white for connecting with the Celestial.  There is harmony in this like the harmony found in black and white piano keys.

Often, we humans think that everything is black and white, that is, everything is either right or wrong or a truth or a falsehood.  We tend not to see the grey.  And yet the grey is so important to balance.  Most of us live in the grey.

Mink Pops Out

 

This post comes from my journal from quite a few years ago.  It was a week until Christmas, and I was out in the park walking my dogs.  It was a great experience.

***************

There is nothing more freaky than some animal popping out of the bush at you, regardless of its size!  The other night, Magic and Merlin scared a Mink out of its nightly hunt.  And, Magic herded him so that it jumped out in front of me.  Poor Mink!  I think I scared him more than the dogs did.  He popped under a fence.  Then, he turned around and peeked out at me.  It looked like he grinned.

Mink, especially when it is white, is about remembering your spirit.  Mink tells us that we must stay connected to who we really are, and that we must disregard what other people tell us we “should” be like.  The great national pastime is trying to figure out who we are.  

When you are connected to your spirit and to Great Spirit, you know exactly what you are.
