Description :
In ancient times, when the earth vibrated with animal life, people received messages and took power from the creatures they saw around them every day. Native American Indians and Australian aboriginals identified with animals such as the wolf and the kangaroo, using them as totems to guide and enrich their lives. Chinese shamans were vital instruments in communicating between the living and their ancestral and other gods and used the power of the tiger and the bear to fly between worlds, while South American tribal shamans wore the skin of the jaguar to partake of its indomitable powers.
In today’s world, we witness the extraordinary feats of the natural world on television, or by visiting zoos, but our direct contact with animals is often limited. In Animal Messages, Susie Green presents 52 animal message cards illustrated with those animals that she considers to have particularly interesting powers and associations and who possess strong emotional appeal. Through these cards, she hopes that the reader will be able to re-establish their links with the natural world, where intuition and instinct take priority over intellect and reason. She invites you to explore the ancient ways of the shamans, and to experience your own ‘journey’ through meditation to discover your animal guide. Your choice of card may reveal the key issues in your life and the animal characteristics highlight the strengths you need to call upon to fulfil your potential. By increasing our sensitivity to the animals in the world around us, we open the way to enriching our wisdom, heightening! our intuitive powers and increasing our self awareness.
