Every animal is a guide,

A teacher,

A healer.

You can access their wisdom when you align yourself and become one with the spirit of that animal.

In seeing the value of the animals as great teachers,

We are honoring them.

The animals allow us to return to a time and place where we were once deeply connected,

Grounded and rooted with Mother Earth and all of her creations.

We can once again become interwoven and in harmony with the universe through the animals.

The wisdom from the animals becomes part of the fiber of our being and we move around differently in our worlds.

Their energy can empower,

Strengthen,

Ground and heal us.

In turn we heal ourselves,

Those around us and the earth.

In this meditation we will connect with the gifts of the crow.

You can allow yourself to get comfortable now,

Lying down and nestling into your space.

As your body begins to become aware that you are slowing down,

You can go ahead and close your eyes,

Taking a few long full deep breaths,

Just inhaling and exhaling,

With each exhale letting go just a little bit more,

Slowing down,

Letting thoughts of external things just fall away and as they do,

A warm golden light of protection surrounds your whole body now allowing you to feel held,

Comforted and safe.

You can let any tension or tightness in your body go and let your body sink a little further down into the support of the surface beneath you.

Your whole body feels held and supported as you begin to melt.

You can relax your toes,

Your feet,

Your legs,

Relax your fingers,

Your hands and your arms,

Releasing your pelvis and your back,

Dropping your shoulders down,

Relaxing your neck and your head,

Letting your eyelids get a little heavier now,

Slowing down,

Turning inward,

Letting go.

Now imagine that you are out in nature,

In a place where the hillside is rich with wild flowers and bathed in golden sunlight.

You've discovered a serene and enchanted dirt trail that winds magically into the hills and you decide to follow it and see where it will take you.

As you're walking,

Your feet crunch the dried leaves that have fallen from the enormous ancient oak trees all around you,

And feelings of joy come over you as you gaze upward to marvel the way in which the glorious,

Long,

Twisting and winding branches reach up into the sky,

And also from one side of the path to the other until they meet in the middle.

In wonderment you imagine the years that it took to grow,

Inch by inch,

And the yearning and journey that unfolded until the branches could finally reach and intertwine.

You visualize the trees now as being mystical enchanted lovers who have spent a lifetime trying to get to each other,

So close and yet so far.

And now they dance eternally together as the breeze gently moves them around.

And that same breeze now sweeps across your face and draws you into a world of fantasy as you continue to wander under the magical,

Mysterious archways and portals above you.

In the distance now,

You hear the lush bubbling of running water and you make your way down to a stream.

There is a path with stepping stones that lead to a flat rock ledge that overlooks a sweet little waterfall.

You decide to rest here for a moment and you lower yourself to sit,

Letting out a deep breath,

A sigh of relief as you settle in.

Taking in your surroundings,

You notice the rays of yellow golden sunlight shining through some of the trees,

Illuminating several but the others are in the shadows.

There is a comfort in the gentleness of the gurgling stream as it smoothly rolls over the rocks,

Creating glistening peaks of rippled water.

You get lost for a moment in the paths and twists and turns the water takes through the rock formations as it makes its way downstream and you relax a little bit more.

You feel safe,

Surrounded and protected by nature and an overwhelming sense of peace washes over you,

Your body relaxing,

A smile coming across your face.

And as you sit,

You start to notice the sounds beyond the stream,

There are lots of different birds,

Singing,

Chirping,

Calling.

The most noticeable are the caws of the crows in the distance.

They are coming closer to you as you sit in stillness.

Perhaps they are telling the others that you have arrived and you instinctively soften your energy to become part of the landscape and you wait.

A few moments go by and the crows are getting closer now,

With one coming to sit on a branch right above your head.

He calls out to you,

A feeling of awe and wonder comes over you and you bring your gaze to meet his piercing black eyes.

Your eyes lock and your hearts connect.

You are mesmerized and immediately you fall into a dream state.

Suddenly your perspective is changed and you find yourself sitting up in the tree,

Noticing that your vision has changed,

It is better,

And you have a very wide field of view now.

Your ears are holes covered by feathers and your hearing is about the same,

Only now you are attuned to the different meanings of the sounds of your flock.

You take your gaze down to look at your large body now covered in the most shiny layers of iridescent black feathers.

Your neck is thick and your mouth is now a heavy straight bill.

Your legs are thin and long.

Your feet have three toes pointed forward and one backward,

Which is perfect for grasping perches.

Your gorgeous wings are fairly broad and rounded with the wingtip feathers spread like fingers.

Your tail is fan shaped and rounded at the end and most of all,

You are very,

Very smart.

You begin to play with your voice and let out a loud caw,

Now taking on the language of the crow.

Two caws mean where are you?

Three caws mean danger and four or more caws mean this is my territory.

There are other sounds that you can make now too.

They sound like rattles and clicks,

Patterns and coos,

All so you can stay in constant contact with each other.

Then you take off in flight with a steady and frequent rowing of your wings.

You are flying and you feel completely free.

You are fully transformed and traveling a great distance with the other crows now.

The chorus of cawing as the flock is on the move is exhilarating and you join in.

Suddenly a hawk swoops in on your territory and instinctively you and the members of the flock mob the intruder,

Driving it away almost immediately.

You can feel how powerful you are both individually and also as a member of a family.

Up ahead the crows begin to land in some of the oak trees in a meadow and it is time to eat,

So you follow along and have a smooth landing onto a branch.

You hop down to the ground and use your beak to flick away unwanted items and dig into the soil finding seeds and fruits that have fallen from the nearby trees.

Everything tastes delicious.

Finished with dinner it is time to fly again and this time your take off is perfect as you catch some air and climb up into the sky again.

You catch the wind under your wings and just fly.

The crow symbolizes life's magic,

Destiny,

Personal transformation,

Alchemy,

Intelligence,

Higher perspective,

Being fearless,

Adaptability and mischievousness.

The spirit of the crow asks us not to fear change,

That things are ever changing.

Allow crow to assist you in transmuting worry into curiosity and even excitement.

Deep transformation is not easy.

Crow supports you with greater insights when you need that higher perspective.

Allow crow's mysticism and magic to aid you in your quest.

You could be on the verge of a creative breakthrough.

Crow can help you reach your authentic power and bring your creativity to the surface.

Allow crow to give you prophetic gifts of insight.

Allow crow to show you how to move with grace and ease between the shadows and the light.

Allow crow to reveal the signs of synchronicity around you so that you may take flight and follow your dreams.

Having received and embodied these insights and teachings,

You fly back to the tree you started your journey on and land on that same branch.

You take a moment to catch your breath,

Shake your body and feathers ruffle and settle down.

It is time for you to return to your own body now and you once again find yourself sitting beneath the tree looking up into the eyes of the crow and the crow offers his spiritual gifts and teachings and lessons for you to carry with you for all time.

He gives to you intelligence,

Higher perspective,

Adaptability,

Fearlessness,

Transformation,

Mystery and mischievousness.

Crows are commonly associated with magic and as we can see them everywhere it is a reminder that magic is everywhere.

You thank the crow for his gifts and your time together and turn to walk back down the path in the direction you started out.

You smile knowingly to the wildflowers and butterflies,

Waving goodbye to the other birds and you are now back at the base of the hillside,

Back in your space where you are lying down noticing any sounds around you and feeling the support of the surface beneath you.

You are fully back in your own body now in this present moment having shared a most magical journey with the crow.

May you move with magic and fearlessness into your day with the gifts of the crow alive in every cell and every fiber of your being for all time.

Reviews

This was exactly what I needed and didn’t know I needed (-: Such a beautifully crafted, magical deep-dive into that raw primal spiritual energy/power of the crow… 🙏

About a year ago I had a very interesting encounter with crows while meditating outdoors by myself. First one came and starting calling, then 7 more came and stayed close calling. I knew they were delivering an important message. Now I understand better. Thank you 🙏🏻

I feel like I already have the gifts of the crow, before I listened to this. PS great meditation!

Relaxing, grounding, heart warming, powerful, and magical ✨

Truly amazing. Wonderful. Crows are our friends and a blessing. I felt my connection with Crow during this meditation.
Thank you. ❤️🦅🙏
