I recently finished a book called Spirits of the Earth…in it a native american medicine man details accounts in his life of learning how nature is one way heaven reaches to earth to give us support and messages on our journey.
In reading the book, i learned deeper wisdom about the blue jay feather that had made it’s way into my life and was on display in my car. I learned the blue jay is an arrogant bird known for his gossip…this feather wasn’t meant to be a bit of beauty…but as a sign that someone was gossiping about me. I searched deeper and opened myself up to the knowing that a toad discovered in the hollow of my tree in the backyard was a similar sign, as well as a dream I had about a rat making itself comfortable among my dogs….these were natures way…in physical, spiritual and dream worlds of letting me know I needed to protect myself.
Today i found myself next to one who i suspected sent these omens….and as i began to protect myself with blue light, praying the angels and nature return the unwelcome gifts he had offered, I noticed his voice struggling to phonate. He has been the sender….and I unknowingly received gifts that hurt me and my family.
I’m using this day as a reminder to myself to examine all gifts. It’s ok to look a “gift horse in the mouth.”….everything offered to me as a sensitive intuitive soul is not what benefits me. Some gifts are not blessed….but my job is not to be bitter or angry, but simply to stamp “return to sender” on each package, and pray the gift meant to harm me follows it’s course in karma and stays where it really belongs. Those who choose to feed hate, jealously, bitterness continue to accept gifts from unknown sources…and these gifts collect other gifts…and were one to really examine these packages, they would see the malice and decay inside.
So I choose to surround myself in healing blue light….and pray to the Great Creator….I asked for a sign from the creator as i was driving…”am i headed in the right direction?”….and suddenly in the middle of the city appeared a beautiful hawk that flew in front of my car for maybe 30 feet…it was about 10 feet higher than my car and magnificent….as the bird ascended and found rest on a light pole…i gave thanks to the Creator for this beautiful, welcome sign, this gift!….the hawk directs us…it has gained a higher perspective and can see the dangers in roads ahead and will lead us in the paths of righteousness and beside calm still waters.
I looked in my rear view mirror and watched the hawk. She remained there as i drove a few more miles up the road to deliver a package….a delivery of a complete project to a co-creator I have been pouring my life into for almost a year.
As I drove back the way i had came, I looked up and to my amazement the hawk now sat on the other side of the pole on the other side of the road facing east….and i gave thanks as I drove under her feathers and gaze….twice today she pointed the direction I needed to go. And my heart was filled with gladness.
I drew upon her strength and the blessing that even the birds of the air care for me through my Creator’s love….and used this to block and return the unwelcomeness from the one i suspected. I stood with him not even an hour after my encounter with the hawk.
I will continue to pray that hawk guides me and spirit protects me through the valley of the shadow of death. I fear no evil. and i accept no gifts that haven’t been sent with a blessing from frequencies higher than mine. Brothers and Sisters….I pray you do the same. We deserve peace as children of the light
Blessings!
