Elk Medicine

Hello all! I read once about a concept called "elk medicine". If my memory serves me, someone who has it is sexually attractive to others even if that person is not necessarily physically attractive. The author only mentioned it briefly. Just curious if anyone else has heard of this or has any thoughts on the subject. I have not read many threads on here under this heading, but I will. If there is a thread here about this topic, please direct me there. Thank you.

ELK MEDICINE
You probably never gave the elk much thought, but I think you'll be able to relate to his message.

Elk is power, strength, stamina and nobility. At one time, the entire continent was covered with elk, but now it is found only in the West, and it is one of the protected animals.

If you have elk medicine, you have learned to look at the long view of things, and "hit your stride" so that you can maintain your energy and determination until a project is completed. Things that take a long time to complete properly do not discourage you. You don't give up easily. Also, you work well in groups and are not one to "hog" the credit for a thing well done. Elk teaches lessons in mutual cooperation for the good of the whole.

Your favorite time of the year is probably autumn and early winter. You don't feel the cold as severely as others might.

You are either a vegetarian, or eat a lot of veggies and fruit. You find that your energy drops when you eat too much meat.

One of the wonderful traits of elk people is that they are comfortable with their own sex, and work well with their own sex. Elk people belong to women's/men's groups and do not suffer the intense competition found in some people when they are with their own sex. Women are able to work well with other women without gossip and jealousy and pettiness, and men work well with other men without the need to flex their macho muscles, or be top dog, or be the one in control. However, it is important for elk people to mingle and communicate with the opposite sex; not for sexual interaction, but for the sharing of energy from another viewpoint. This is necessary to maintain balance in the emotional and mental outlook.

If you are an elk person, you probably spend a lot of time just "being a friend" to others. You are warm, comfortable and understanding.

Has elk entered your life? He is a wonderful asset.

Thank you Awanita. I would like to learn more about animal spirits and how we can relate to their spiritual lessons. The book I read about this in is in my personal library. It intrigued me. in my part of the country, (Appalacian) there has been an aggressive elk restocking campaign and a thriving elk population here. They are something to behold. Very beautiful! When it's rutting season, you can see the males on top of the strip jobs and they fight and you can hear them snorting and yelling. It's amazing. I will find that book and add more about elk medicine. I thank you for replying. If you have thoughts on any more animal spirits, I would love it if you would share when you can.

Also think of Elk and how they relate to lightning. (Illumination). I enjoy watching the Elk during a Thunderstorm.
