I find people's spirit animals as well as sell custom necklaces, pendulums, and art. All of which I have been doing in some capacity, for most of my life.

Hello, my name is Jake Wondra or Jake “The Bear” Wondra and I work with spirit animals. I help people connect with their spirit animals as well as a few other things like dream interpretation, energy work, intuitive readings. I also make custom art usually in the form of posters, prints, necklaces, and pendulums. As the years have gone by, I have honed my gifts and my craft, constantly learning new things and adding more to both my spiritual tool belt, as well as my artistic tool belt. I have had the gift of seeing spirit animals since I was a child. I went through a rough patch in my early teen years where I basically shut down my gifts until my late teens / early twenties. Once I got back into my groove, my gifts came racing back, even stronger than before. I started simple by finding people’s “spirit animal”. I started my journey in this art by following the Native American beliefs on spirit animals, or more accurately, power animals. I then started branching off and following the teachings of the old Norse beliefs on spirit animals, specifically what they call “Fylgja”. It is more or less the equivalent of the Native American’s “Power Animal”. I was led down this path by my ancestors and guides because I do not have any Native American heritage and I always felt a little uncomfortable teaching about something outside of my heritage. However, I do have ancestral ties to both Scandinavia and the old Norse cultures. Through meditation, and conversing with my guides, ancestors and beings from other worlds, I learned more up-to-date teachings on spirit animals and how they fit into our lives, through the focal point of my Nordic heritage and using their beliefs as a foundation that I have expanded upon. I also have a degree in graphic design and have been using my artistic skills and my intuitive gifts to make meaningful and custom art. Just like my intuitive abilities, I have been making art since I was a kid. It wasn’t until later that I swapped mediums and started making digital art using my computer and mouse instead of pen and paper. This led to a collaboration with Laurie Wondra, my mother and mentor who has been a psychic medium, in the public eye for over fifteen years now. We made an oracle deck of cards where I channeled and made the art work using gods, goddesses, and animals and then she wrote up the actual meanings that go in the guide book that comes with the deck, channeled from her guides. Once the deck was published, I was then persuaded to offer a service where I could continue to combine my art with my intuitive gifts alongside of the spirit animal and dream interpretation services.

Animal Gods and Goddesses Oracle Card Friday: Reveal

1) 27 Rahas Piercing Awareness: You will be going through a large shift or even multiple large changes. Before this can fully happen, you need to spend alone time and dive deep within yourself to figure out who you truly are. This can be a very difficult process for most, but do not be discouraged. Once you have spent time alone sifting through any facades to find your authentic self, life will start moving very rapidly to help you build and shape your life that best suits who you truly are and who you are meant to be. You will need to make quick decisions and stick to them. If you can do that, you will be amazed at the new skills, wisdom, and tools you will start to acquire. All of which will help you on your life’s journey going forward.

2) 3 Arcus Be Seen: Now is your time. Step out from the shadows and let the world know you are here and ready for your life's journey. This is the time to start working on your dreams. Get going, and don't look back. You are guided and protected at this time. Now is the time to trust in the omens and signs that the universe is giving you. Even if you do not move in giant steps, small steps are still progress. But make sure you are still moving forward and are not stagnate. Be aware of your emotions, attitude, and phrasing. Universe is always listening and does not understand sarcasm.

3) 2 Alyse Illumination: In the past, you may have been living in the darkness almost to a point of content. That time is now passing as you are starting to step into the light. You may even start discovering hidden abilities you have that you never knew you had. While in this transformation of stepping into your new gifts you may feel rather raw as the old and darkness in you starts to crumble away. Know that you are well protected at this time and can seek out support from family and friends to help you through this transition, if needed.

1) Kangaroo: Gratitude. Stop dwelling on what you do not have and start being thankful for what you do have. When you live in gratitude and continue the flow of giving, life will always provide for you and give back to you. It does not always need to be of monetary value either. Giving your time, energy, and focus is also a great way to continue the cycle of giving and receiving. It is important to remember that everything you have or do not have in life, is a result of what you have put out to the universe. If you live in scarcity, try being less selfish and stop constantly stating you do not have enough money. The words and actions we put out to Universe attracts more of that same energy. Everything at its core is just energy meaning positivity attracts positivity while negativity attracts negativity.

2) Eagle: Spirit. Remember to shine your light. Shine bright and good things will come to you. Positivity attracts more positivity while negativity attracts more negativity. This can be applied to not only drawing in physical desires, but also mood, emotions, relationships, opportunities and more. Listen to what spirit has to tell you, even if you do not like the message. By doing so, spirit will continue to guide you down the best route in this life for you. Even if you are feeling lost, stay calm and listen to your spirit guides for they will start sending messages. Your ego might try to get in the way, so really tune in to spirit and what it is trying to tell you. Do not let your mind get wrapped up in all the possible ways you can fail but instead, focus on something positive that motivates you and keeps you moving forward.

3) Pelican: Forgiveness. Judgment is a natural thing we do as humans. However, it can be very damaging not only to those you are judging, but to yourself as well. It is ok to make judgements, as long as you can detach from them and let them pass by without dwelling on them. The more we judge people and things without letting go of those images, the more we create harmful illusions or filters and separate ourselves further and further away from our inner peace and our fellow people. This is where forgiveness can be a powerful and effective tool. Truly forgiving someone or something does not set them free from what they may or may not have done to you, but rather sets you free from the all of the negative energy and attachments they may have caused to you. It takes their power over you away and lets you live your life in peace once more.

Oracle Card Friday: Reveal

1) DNA: Karma. As humans, we are made up of a genetic structure known as DNA. It houses the vast majority of our personal physical, mental, and emotional traits. However, it was created by combining part of the DNA from both of your parents who received their DNA from both of their parents, and so on. This genetic pattern goes back thousands of years, essentially adding many different aspects of all your ancestors into you. As the generations continue on, so does the DNA structure. This has both positive and negative effects. You are getting some of the best dominate traits from all of your ancestors but you are also inheriting a number of their negative traits, or even karmic debt as well. Before you came into this world, you agreed to take on some of that Karmic debt to help heal not only yourself, but all those that walked before you, AND all those that will walk after you. That can seem like a monumental task, but remember that every person made some kind of agreement and walks this life to do the same. You also do not need to do this alone. Part of being human is being part of a bigger soul collective. So do not be afraid to reach out to others around you for help and guidance. Your ancestors are also ready to help you from the other side.

2) River: Movement. Whatever you are facing in life right now, stop fighting it. This does not mean to give up completely, but rather to try approaching things from a different angle. In order to solve your problem, you may need to do things you do not want to do and that push you outside of your comfort zone. Life may also be giving you a lesson in patience. Not everything in life can be accomplished with brute force. Sometimes we need to wait and observe before making a decision. Sometimes life will bring us new information and help us in unusual ways if we are open to trying new and slightly uncomfortable things. Whatever the case may be, now is a time to go with the flow instead of trying to fight against it. By fighting or resisting you are in stuck energy which can lead to clouded judgment. Keep an eye out for any clues or leads that Universe may be trying to give to you to assist you. The answer to your problem may come in an unexpected way.

3) Rain: Purification. Just as all of the unwanted waste and debris is washed away after a heavy rain fall, now is your time to purge unwanted waste and debris in your life as well. Focus on whatever is in your life that is stopping you from experiencing life to the fullest and get rid of it. In this case, it is most likely old thinking patterns or mindset. Let those prenotions go. You are much stronger then you think you are. Stop believing that you cannot do what you really want to do in life because of what you or others see as a “limitation”. Purge those thoughts, and start thinking of ways to attain your goals and dreams instead of giving up before even trying. Eating better, drinking more water, and getting out on the land will all greatly benefit you in this process. Not just from a physical aspect, but from an emotional and mental standpoint as well.

Oracle Card Friday: Reveal

1) Gorilla: Take time to listen compassionately to those you love, especially your family members. Sometimes we lose touch with our family and need to strengthen the connection to those you love. They will not always be there and now is a great time to show them you care. People change and now might be a good time to reconnect with a family member you may not have always seen eye to eye with. That being said, we also get to choose who we allow into our hearts. So do not get to upset if the other person is not willing to build a genuine connection. Connect with those who matter most. This also includes those you see as family but are not blood related. A family member is someone who loves and supports you through thick and thin. This could be blood relatives, but also close family friends.

2) Shark: Trust your instincts to discern the truth of the situation. Your instinctual self is more potent and powerful then you may realize. Sometimes your instinctual signals can be faded by negative life events or childhood conditioning. Now is the time to break through those old conditionings and work on strengthening your intuition. Take the time to tune into your intuition by taking large, deep breaths and by really tuning into your gut feeling. It will take practice, but it is a very useful tool to have. Also, altering your diet may help as well. Try eating healthier foods that make your gut and over all body feel lighter instead of dense and bloated. More vegetables, fish, and poultry can help while staying away from highly processed foods, sugar and heavy amounts of red meat. What you ingest gives your body fuel and lacking the proper fuel can dampen your senses.

3) Tiger: You are being called into a position of leadership. Trust in yourself that you have all the required skills and tools to do so. Being an effective leader means being able to balance when to yield and when to strike. So pay attention to the natural flow of energy around you and tap into it. Doing so will give you a much better knowing of when to make a move and when to hold back. Your intuition plays a very large role in this. Practice using it, so when the time comes where you truly need your intuition, you can effectively use it. It is also important to not let fear and doubt control you. Doing so will fog your senses and lead you into making poor decisions. Do what you must to keep a clear and balanced mind. Do so not only for your own benefit, but for the benefit of those around you who will be looking to you for guidance and leadership.

1) 15 Yakov Envy and Jealousy: Someone is lurking in the shadows, waiting to drain your life force. You may be in a legal battle, a bad relationship, or butting heads with someone at work. Whatever it is, they are slowly draining your life force so that you will be numb once they make their final move. There may even be someone right now in your space that is eating away at your life force, possibly without even realizing it. If you do not know or cannot see who is draining your energy, look for these traits. Are they exuding, jealousy, insults disguised as jokes at your expense, short bursts of anger, envy, or constant complaining? If so, you may need to either get away from them, or sit down and have a meaningful conversation with them about their habits. Do note that not everyone wants to change and sometimes even if you want them in your life, they may be to toxic to hold onto.

2) 24 Ibiade Mystical Time: Now is the time to be gentle and flexible. You are now more able to fly through life at greater speeds handling the twists and turns that come with it. Now is also a time to be more playful and not take things to heavily. Universe will guide you through an experience to help open up your heart. Express your love and feelings to those closest in your life right now. You may have someone enter your life who will show you to live more freely, open, and lovingly. You may start doing things you thought you could not or did not want to, only for you to find new passions and hobbies. Life may start to move in bursts, alternating between fast paced and moments of calm and clarity. It may seem frantic at first, but do not be afraid to give into the craziness of it all. If you are feeling disjointed know that like the hummingbird, you can fly in any direction to move past it.

3) 36 Rukera Opportunity: Now is the time to be aware of any opportunities and to act quickly when they reveal themselves. Some will be positive and some negative. Be agile like the rabbit to avoid the negative events that may arise while also keeping an eye out for the positive ones. Remember to stay flexible. As long as you can stay flexible and not fight positive opportunities that may arise, even if they may be challenging, you will be able to go a lot further in your endeavors. This is also a very creative time for you. Be open to the creative energies that are coming through to you. These creative energies may show themselves in odd or unusual ways. So do not be afraid to try something new and adventurous. Things will also happen more quickly, so do not be fearful of how fast they will happen for you. Instead, know that you are protected and have everything you need to succeed.

Oracle Card (Last) Friday: Reveal

1) Lion: Courage. Never assume that others around you or life in general knows exactly what you want, especially if you never clearly state it. It can be very hard to speak up at times to let those around you know what you want or need. You are going to have to put on a brave face and just ask. Be respectful and direct when stating your needs or desires. You may or may not get what you ask for, but without ever asking, how is anyone supposed to know what you want or need? Just remember to be direct and confident. Even if it is something you are embarrassed about or feel it is something you do not deserve, the worse that can happen is they say no. To your surprise, they may not only say yes, but it may lead to both further strengthening your confidence and finding even better solutions or additional help you did not even think was possible.

2) Koala: Empathy. You have done a lot of talking recently and not enough listening. Now is your turn to listen and really take in what others have to saying. Communication is more than just words. It’s an exchange of energy. Really focus on not just what others have to say but how they are saying it using body language, facial expressions and even feeling the shifts in their energy. Now is also the time to start focusing on others more instead of yourself. Start showing interest in those closest to you by asking how they are doing/feeling and really listen to what they have to say. It is also important to remember to pick up on people's body language, tones, gestures, and expressions as words do not always tell the full story. Even if they do not mean to do so, people often hide their true feelings by deflecting the conversation. By reading a person’s body language and the shifts in their energy, you can start to build a more coherent picture of what is really going on. Just be careful not to over step any boundaries in the process.

3) Coyote: Wise Fool. It is time to let go of any embarrassments you have of yourself. We are all only human and we all make mistakes. Instead of dwelling on your recent mistakes, pick yourself up and carry on. Life is too short to take everything so seriously. Crack a joke, and smile more. You gain nothing positive by holding onto self-shame. Its ok to make mistakes and be silly. You are your harshest critic and right now you are being way too hard on yourself. Forgive yourself of your past follies and do your best to start living life in a more light hearted and joyous manner. As long as you learn from your past mistakes and use them as lessons moving forward, everything will turn out ok.
