Animal Totems

As you arrive here, take a moment to check in with your energy. How would you describe it? It is high and fast. Slow and grounded? Nonexistent? No judgment. Simply honest observation. Inhale. Exhale. Welcome to a Hit of Hope. I’ve been thinking about different kinds of energy lately. I was recently walking in the woods, because that’s what I do, to ground, to recharge. Suddenly, I heard a slight rustle to my right. A deer stared at me from 20 feet away. The rest of the herd materialized.

Over the last few years, I have done a few guided meditations aimed at revealing my animal guides, and have consistently been shown two; the butterfly and the elephant. Both make great sense, given where my path led and the obstacles it contained, and even today, with a new love and a new job in a new city, the butterfly resonates perhaps stronger than ever.
But I see guides everywhere. Life shows me what I need to see, and as my eyes and heart are drawn to the animal kingdom, those are the tools it uses to communicate with me.
The more I listen to it, the happier and more fulfilled I am.

I recently had a doe experience in the woods. She was so close. We just looked at each other. I gave her a teeny bow and went on my way. I liked your analogy. Am heavy right now. Loved hearing you say Live Light. Thank you as always. 🦋

Fun little talk and meditation about animals. Thank you for the reminder that we are connected to the animal world on earth, our home.

Lovely message 🙏. One of the great treasures of my life is the memory of seeing not one but two bobcats in the front yard as I was rushing to leave for work one morning. After listening today, I looked up the bobcat totem symbolism. Patience while pursuing goals, a sense of playfulness, smart and cunning and aware. But not solitary in my case, because it's a very rare gift to see more than one bobcat at a time. I never really thought about that event much, other than to feel a deep sense of appreciation for such a wonderful present. I think I'll mull over the significance now, though.

🦌 & 🐇 are two of my favorite reminders when I’m in the woods. I followed one bunny one day for a long time and couldn’t help but feel like Alice. Kept wondering, where are you taking me? Thank you for this beautiful picture, Betsy! Blessed Be!
