Can birds communicate with you?

lizard tells us our intuition is already good and psychic ability will be active. a reminder to listen to your own intuition. lizard can also help us break from the past.


missing a tail shows the cat was just faster than he was. :)

The universe seems to be reminding me of that allot lately. I need to trust my intuition more than I should. That pesky little, "but what if i'm wrong," keeps popping up in my head. A friend of mine did a reading for me a long time ago and one card basically told me to fake it until I make it. Wouldn't that be deceitful though? Oh well, I'm just going to listen to my intuition more and stop trying to talk myself out of it!

Ha ha! Oh you!

Aww, that makes sense. I had a Reiki session with a woman, and she brought up "sparrow." She said it's a message that it's okay to love again. It brought tears to my eyes, because I see them all the time especially when I'm thinking about this one guy.

see? ain't universe grand? :)

Animals (or people) with bits of themselves missing, symbolise something quite profound.

Wisdom comes at a price, in that we either have to give something up in order to get it, or we get it having lost bits. In many old Celtic legends, there is a common theme of people suffering physical injury on their first successful journey to the otherworld (sometimes called the underworld). Odin, from the Norse pantheon, paid for the knowledge of the runes with one of his eyes for example. There's a chap in the Irish Celtic legends (I think it might have been Taliasin or something - I can't remember, its a long time since I read the story), that made it unharmed to the underworld, but got trapped there. He was rescued by an eagle, which he then allowed to take nourishment from his leg (by biting a chunk of flesh off) as payment.

Of course these are all legends, and should be taken with a pinch of salt, but the message/symbolism is valid. Its hard to deny that in the 'conventional' reality, the price of wisdom is that we have to give up our youth. I.e. we spend so long learning that by the time we know even a bit, we're getting on in years.

Of course a lizard without its tail could simply be a lizard that got caught by a cat or a bird, but specifically noticing it is relevant in itself.

What I love about them is they always look like they're having a blast. Nothing holds them back from living. They're just having fun and being free They don't live in fear.

The Universe never ceases to amaze me.

Thank you for that Badger. That does have a meaning to me and I will definitely keep that in mind on my walk.
