Foxy Times - Spirit Animal

I have been noticing a lot of different news stories about foxes - in Toronto, London, Japan, and really, all over the northern hemisphere.  

The question becomes “Why is Fox so in our faces all of a sudden?”

Good question!  Different sages have written about Fox.  They write that Fox is about mystery – because of its colouring, and that is true.  They write, too, that Fox is about being aware of family because Fox is a good parent, and a good pack member.  That is true.  Others have written that Fox is about being aware of one’s surroundings and the interconnectedness of all things.  I see this as true because of the way Fox adapts to city environments.

I think that Fox is the same as she/he ever was.  The difference, I believe is that we are more aware of Fox because we are more attuned to life around us.  Before this attuning, we were simply unaware of much of the natural life around us.

I also see Fox as a symbol for us in these changing times.  The symbol stands for adaptation, finding new food supplies (Fox has only survived because it has strong adaption skills that let it move through different environments, and it always goes where the food is), and for living outside the boundaries of what people think and expect.  Fox has long escaped man and his hunting dogs by doing the unexpected.

Fox is showing that it is there to support humans as they go through the changes of this next year.  Call on Fox to guide you.  It will show you how to “out-fox” the situation!

Faulty Logic

Moving right along onto things that I don’t understand, I come to the whole “faulty logic” thing.  Why has this got me thinking?  Well, I have a list!  Here are two things on it:

-people who think that having a driver’s license makes them a good driver

-buying “healthy” yogurt which has 28 g of sugar in it, and no fat, and almost no protein 

As you might guess, I was just at the market to get some groceries, and these things popped up for me.    I asked my Angels why these things bugged me.  The response was that faulty logic is a disruptive energy that will assault the light. They said I was bugged because I wanted to correct the logic, and knew that I could not interfere.  The Angels talked about the need to let go of things in my mind (not unlike the Buddhists who say to let go of attachment).

The Angels continued that mankind has many belief systems that are built on faulty logic, and that the belief systems keep humans locked in to a darker energy then they could be in if they simply went with the flow, and left behind all other people’s ideas, thoughts, and marketing. 

That explanation made sense to me.  I am letting go.  The process is slower than I expected.  There must be some very deep roots there.

Blessings,

Forge Ahead

As I asked for guidance for my blog today, I heard “Forge ahead!”.  And then I saw a series of visions around keeping one’s faith through the times ahead where chaos will be rampant, and where people will try to get you to do things against your nature.

The message was that we must “forge” ourselves through all the heat that we will be taking, into a person of steel will and mission.  We must be able to stand firm in our beliefs, in the knowledge that we are all connected in Oneness and that hurting one person to benefit another is actually hurting all of us.  We will be shaped by all of the fire that we will be under, however, if our Soul can hang on to the vision of what we can be, we will all be filled with a steely resolve that will let us continue to be in service to The Light.

Sparrow Sings

Our window was open this morning, and I could hear the Sparrows singing away as they hopped around the bird feeder to gather food.  Suddenly, it got quiet.  Then the most beautiful, clear notes rang out.  I peeked out the window.  It was one Sparrow, sitting on the grass by itself, singing away while the others got food.

The sound was clear, like a flute going to unusual notes.  Sparrow seemed to be singing about taking a long journey, and how great it is to be finally at “home” again.  The song seemed to cover the ideas of having a permanent home, and the dangers of that as well as the idea of moving every six months.  

I realized what brave, small creatures that these Sparrows are.  They travel long journeys twice a year to be able to raise chicks, and to be able to survive the winter.  They are very different from us humans.

The song was about five minutes.  When it was done – it was about 5:30am – I snuggled in for another hour of sleep.

A Poem about Life

I seem to be doing new things daily, a change from where I was a year ago.  I wondered why I was moving forward, doing all these new things.  Then, I read this poem and I realized that I was being given a great chance to be in service, for you see, I am one!

 

Just One
Unknown

One song can spark a moment,
One flower can wake the dream
One tree can start a forest,
One bird can herald spring.

One smile begins a friendship,
One handclasp lifts a soul.
One star can guide a ship at sea,
One word can frame the goal

One vote can change a nation,
One sunbeam lights a room
One candle wipes out darkness,
One laugh will conquer gloom.

One step must start each journey.
One word must start each prayer.
One hope will raise our spirits,
One touch can show you care.

One voice can speak with wisdom,
One heart can know what's true,

One life can make a difference,
You see, it's up to you!

Many blessings,

Judy

Words of the Day - Honesty and Clarity

Today, when I pulled my words for the day, I was surprised to see the words “honesty” and “clarity”.  I have been in a place where I am getting clarity on my life.   Clarity means to have clearness or lucidity as to perception or understanding; freedom from indistinctness or ambiguity.  It also means the state or quality of being clear or transparent to the eye as in “the clarity of pure water”.  

However, the honesty part is harder to come by.  It seems that everyone tells small lies.  We are raised that way.  Think of all the things that you were told as a child about Santa, the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny, and the horrible things that might happen to you if you did not do as you were told.  All the things we heard from parents and teachers was mostly a lie.  And, they had been raised that way.  

When we read something in a book or in a paper or on the internet, or when we hear things on the TV or radio, we are hearing mostly lies.  Honesty use to mean  the quality or fact of being honest or upright or fair.  You could count on the people that you trusted to be truthful or sincere, or frank.  We all want that freedom from deceit or fraud.  

The word honesty made me think of our friend who lost his house because the mortgage company did not accept his mortgage payments.  They returned them unopened.  You see, there was bailout money available to the company if they had a certain percentage of mortgages default.  The company made more money on the bailout then what the mortgages were worth.  The environment was set up for them to be not honest for their mortgagees, and yet to be honest to their shareholders, and to bring in a certain quota of money.  

Isn’t it ironic that we can be dishonest and honest at the same time?  It all depends on the point of view.

April 1 2024 - Walk In Nature

April Fool's day – a day for playing jokes.  This blog is not about joking.  It is about waking up and realizing that we need Nature in our lives.  It is about remembering that we come from Nature – from the Earth.  Our blood flows red with iron richness and lots of mineral and gases that are part of the Earth's structure.

We need to be out in Nature to restore our calm and to remind ourselves that we must care for the plants, animals, birds, etc. because they are our cousins.  They carry the same ingredients in their bodies. 

It is sad that we want to destroy the parks and rivers and lakes to "develop" them.  And, yes, in some places, wild lands are being reclaimed so that new life can flourish in those spots.

Today, decide to be out in Nature for one hour a week.  Then slowly increase the time.  

Many blessings,

Judy
