What a beautiful morning, incredible reflection as I wake to start my day and continue to prepare the space for the upcoming weekend retreat - Awakened Presence with Horses Weekend Retreat
Lately I’ve been sitting with the medicine of the directions.
As I prepare for the fire ceremony and shamanic journey at the ranch, I chose my animal totems — and what came through felt less like coincidence and more like truth I couldn’t ignore.
Eagle in the East — asking me to rise, to see clearly, to stop getting caught in the noise and remember the bigger vision.
Otter in the South — a reminder that life isn’t meant to be built through pressure, but through joy, connection, and trust.
Lynx in the West — deep intuition, the quiet knowing. The part of me that already knows what is and isn’t aligned… without needing to justify it.
Alligator in the North — patience, instinct, grounded wisdom. Move strategically. Not everything needs to be rushed.
Skunk above — stand in your truth without over-explaining. Your presence speaks for itself.
Spider below — the weaver. The reminder that I am building something of my own, thread by thread, even when it feels slow.
And Rabbit within — the part of me that feels fear, that questions, that scans for risk… but also the part that keeps me aware and awake.
When I step back and look at all of it together, it feels like a map.
Not of where I’ve been — but of where I’m being asked to go.
To trust what I already know.
To move with intention.
To build from alignment, not obligation.
This is the energy I’m bringing into our next retreat — into the fire, into the journey, into the space we’ll hold together.
Not to become someone new… but to remember who you are underneath the noise.
Life has a way of guiding us if we’re willing to listen.
