ANCESTORS: Wisdom is blossoming. Even if there are unsettling situations in your life, there’s a reason for it, and much good will occur as a result. Your ancestors are sending you incredible support to fulfill your dreams. Be aware of the coincidences, signs, and synchronicities around you; watch for messages from your forebears. No matter what’s occurring on the surface of your life, your prayers are being answered in mysterious ways beyond your awareness.
Your Native Spirit Wants You to Know: There’s wisdom that dwells deep within your cells that’s a spiritual bequest from your ancestors. This wisdom has come not only from your fourbears’ joyous, carefree times: it has also bloomed from their failures, deflated dreams and seemingly wrong turns in life. Part of their message to you is to cherish every experience, for all of it will deepen your wisdom, compassion, and understanding, as it did theirs. Also, know that there’s an innate wisdom within you . . . always. It’s simply a matter of turning within to call on their ancestors for support – to ask for their help is to walk the native path. Sometimes you may be so focused on what’s outside you that you forget that wisdom is available to you from the spirit of your ancestors. Be willing to ask, for they want to support you.
The Journey: Imagine that you’re traveling back in time to communicate and connect with a gathering of your ancestors. On this meditation journey, there might be one or two particular forebears who seem to reach out to you. (At different times in your life, different predecessors will be sending you support.) Give thanks for the support. The more gratitude you have for their help, the more they send you blessings and guidance.

ANSWERING THE CALL: You’ve been called. If you’ve been waiting for your life to shift, the waiting is over. Your true and authentic life is happening. If you’ve been hoping for a sign . . . this is it. Right now your spirit guides, ancestors, and loved ones who have passed on are sending you messages, love and healing. You’ve been call ed, and a gateway is opening for communications from these spiritual realms. Now, and in the days to ahead, sign from Spirit will be all around you. Watch for them.
Your Native Spirit Wants You to Know: Indigenous people look to the clouds, the winds, and the movement of animals to discern the secret messages from the Creator. In native traditions, life is ruled by signs. Right now your spirit helpers are telling you that this is your time. The waiting is over. Sometimes we spend so much time waiting for something to happen that we miss the joy in the moment. Cherish the here and now, and know that no matter what concerns you may have, in the deepest sense, you are ready. Believe, Follow the Signs, and miracle will abound. Your time is now!
The Journey: Look for signs. They are all around you. The feather that alights at your feet, the penny that mysteriously appears, or the rainbow splashed across the sky may be a sign that Spirit is trying to get your attention. Watch your dreams. Messages from Spirit are often conveyed in the nocturnal hours.

OWL MEDICINE: Wisdom. Illumination. Intuition, clairvoyance and deep insight abound. Go within. Profound majesty and grace is available to you simply by pulling your awareness inward. Ancient knowledge is emerging within you. You know the truth. Trust your perception. You are a truth-seeker and a truth-sharer. Nurture the feminine spirit within you.
Your Native Spirit Wants You to Know: In some indigenous cultures, the men say that they’re afraid of the own because it represents the power of women and they’re in awe of (and even afraid of) the power of women. Other native cultures call the owl the “night eagle,” for it has the majesty of the eagle but works silently in the darkness of night. (In Western cultures, the owl sits on the shoulder of Athena and also of Merlin, revealing sacred truths.) When this card chooses you, you are at the advent of a time of illumination and transformation.
The Journey: In a meditative state, imagine that you have shape-shifted into an owl and you are soaring silently through the night. Your ability to see, even in the darkness, is remarkable. This corresponds with your ability to perceive the truth even in murky situations in life.
