Use your owl (and its energy) for meditation purposes, she can help guide/ground you. L.

When I read this post, I wept. Your words resonate through my soul and I feel at times as if we share the same beating heart.<br /><br />This post<br /><br />Your experience here<br /><br />is significant<br /><br />I am not surprised you needed to lay down fully to allow Mother Earth to ground you.<br />Soaring with the eagles is some powerful stuff.<br /><br />You my dear friend received validation.<br /><br />Spirit has spoken<br /><br />As you know, I believe spirit speaks to us, not with words but symbols. Animal symbols are the most powerful since they are one with Mother Nature.<br /><br />I know your thoughts about scripture but I believe in this case it is relevant<br /><br />Ask and ye shall receive<br /><br />It appears, at least to me, that much of what you asked for or began to question during your writers retreat has indeed been answered.<br /><br />There has been transformation.<br /><br />There is much the eagle symbolizes but in this case I believe it is the pairing that is significant. Males and females share equally in the responsibility of caring for the young. This is the "picture" you were given. Parenting is about union, balance and mutual respect.<br /><br />To continue...and state, of course, the obvious.<br /><br />Eagles are freedom<br /><br />FREEDOM<br /><br />Can you allow yourself to soar?<br />You are being reminded to have the courage to reach further<br />in all areas of your life<br />to trust in yourself and all of your gifts<br />I believe there is also a very deep spiritual significance here.<br />A seeking of God/Spirit?<br />A desire to seek it/or perhaps trust in it?<br />I believe you have been truly blessed<br />Very humbling and uplifting..!<br />You deserve much happiness my dear dear friend<br />xoL.

I have had these kinds of moments at times in my life, most recently a surreal humpback sighting in Hawaii that no one else saw. By the time I could point, there was nothing but a ripple. I felt that the whale had breached full length and hovered, mid-air, just for me.<br /><br />You are incredibly strong. You don't know how often you lend your strength to me. Like St. Bride, the Patroness of poets, healers and smithcraft.<br /><br />-invisigalt<br /><br />-invisigalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-18431121295884016832016-06-01T11:31:23.755-07:002016-06-01T11:31:23.755-07:00Well of course you feel like you are stifling pani...Well of course you feel like you are stifling panic! The realities of Sophie's health, and the terrible things you must cope with on a daily basis would drive anyone to panic and beyond. The wonder is that you find these moments of grace and are able to embrace them, and are able and willing to share them.Portiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08909444191769056637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-41843584211083805082016-06-01T10:51:32.521-07:002016-06-01T10:51:32.521-07:00The relief you felt is right there in that picture...The relief you felt is right there in that picture. I'm so glad you sent it, the birds, the long needed rest, you stepped into a moment of grace and it nourished you and you shared it.

I'm going out to lay in the grass.livhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00091094639074377780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-8601133300653284212016-06-01T09:21:38.757-07:002016-06-01T09:21:38.757-07:00Your eagle photo is fantastic.

I had the wrong lens and setting on my camera when I saw mine this Spring and my images were not what I had hoped, but my memories are perfect. My two owl encounters will always stay with me too, as they were spiritual and humbling and magical.<br /><br /><br />I love your picture. It made me smile. I hope you see many more owls, and I hope you keep taking those bird pics, they are great!<br /><br />Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10114884092474969555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-23228315377450633322016-06-01T06:28:34.995-07:002016-06-01T06:28:34.995-07:00Now applying to be your owl, eagle, and great blue...Now applying to be your owl, eagle, and great blue heron guide.Denise Emanuel Clemenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10982725113569943337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-64394067143728278352016-06-01T06:10:22.417-07:002016-06-01T06:10:22.417-07:00I am gasping with the beauty of all of this.

I woke and saw it sitting there, very plainly, and then a second one flew up silently to join it. So surreal to have that happen in the middle of the night!Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-68952745220193536092016-06-01T03:13:24.066-07:002016-06-01T03:13:24.066-07:00I know, KNOW, that my mother is watching me throug...I know, KNOW, that my mother is watching me through her various bird disguises.

It does look like a deeply spiritual moment. And your writing, wow. You explain so exactly the feeling of "stifling panic" so that even one who has never felt it in quite that way can understand what it is. Brilliant.

I'm thrilled for you finding your way forward with your manuscript. You are exceptionally gifted, exceptionally sensitive and strong in a way that few others are. Not that you can't be hurt, but strong in the way of deep roots, years of standing up and bending with storm winds, sap still rising, bearing leaves and fruit. You are a magnificent shade tree with multicolored leaves, and you offer comforting shelter to many with your honest voice. I am grateful to know you!Gbergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08895779471612397202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-83268008126374434282016-05-31T22:00:23.725-07:002016-05-31T22:00:23.725-07:00Two years ago Bill and I were in Waterton National...Two years ago Bill and I were in Waterton National Park. There was a bear and her three cubs beside the road, munching on dandelions in the rain. We stopped and watched them. I burst into tears. It was so beautiful.<br /><br />We get to go watch eagles in three more weeks. I can hardly wait. It's good for the soul, this outdoors stuff. And you look so relaxed and beautiful, laying on the ground.My life so farhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16721270441968035994noreply@blogger.com
