Eagle medicine is the power of the Great Spirit,
The connection to the Divine.
It is the ability to live in the realm of the Spirit and yet remain connected and balanced within the realm of Earth.
Eagle soars and is quick to observe expansiveness within the overall pattern of life.
From the heights of the clouds,
Eagle is close to the heavens where Great Spirit dwells.
The feathers of Eagle are considered to be the most sacred of healing tools.
They have been used for centuries by shamans to cleanse the auras of patients coming to them for healing.
Within the belief systems of Native American tribes,
Eagle represents a state of grace achieved through hard work,
Understanding,
And a completion of tests of initiation which result in the taking of one's personal power.
It is only through the trial of experiencing the lows in life as well as the highs,
And through the trial of trusting one's connection to the Great Spirit,
That the right to use the essence of Eagle medicine is earned.
If the Eagle has come to you,
It is reminding you to take heart and to gather your courage,
For the universe is presenting you with an opportunity to soar above the mundane levels of your life.
The power of recognizing this opportunity may come in the form of a spiritual test.
In being astute,
You may recognize the places within your soul,
Personality,
Emotions,
Or psyche that need bolstering or refinement.
By looking at the overall tapestry,
Eagle teaches you to broaden your sense of self beyond the horizon of what is presently visible.
In learning to fiercely attack your personal fear of the unknown,
The wings of your soul will be supported by the ever-present breezes which are the breath of Great Spirit.
Feed your body,
But most importantly,
Feed your soul.
Within the realm of Mother Earth and Father Sky,
The dance that leads to flight involves the conquering of fear and the willingness to join in the adventure that you are co-creating with the Divine.
If the Eagle has majestically soared into your life,
You are being put on notice to reconnect with the element of air.
Air is of the mental plane,
And in this instance,
It is of the higher mind.
Wisdom comes in many strange and curious forms,
And is always related to the creative force of the Great Spirit.
If you have been walking in the shadows of former realities,
Eagle brings illumination.
Eagle teaches you to look higher and to touch Grandfather Sun with your heart,
To love the shadow as well as the light.
See the beauty in both,
And you will take flight like the Eagle.
Eagle Medicine is the gift we give ourselves to remind us of the freedom of the skies.
Eagle asks you to give yourself permission to legalize freedom and to follow the joy your heart desires.
