I am a Sense of Self Spirit Animal: The Wolf of Intuition.

I help you tap into your inner alpha of knowing so you can embrace the empathic, balanced, and protective nature inside of you. With deep awareness and surrender to the current moment, I reveal answers to your life’s questions.

You may not trust me because I am not obvious, or trained. At first, you may not recognize the difference between your mental conditioning and inner wisdom. I invite you to get curious. That is part of the journey: to learn, experiment, and embrace your natural instincts.

I am beyond form, transcending nice and mean, good or bad, right and wrong - when I am judged you silence my channel of communication. My messages are subtle and come through in different ways. I am gentle yet insistent. I communicate through synchronicities, gentle thoughts, knowingness, dreams, and feelings within your body like jolts of anger when something isn’t right for you and truth bumps on your skin when it is.

You will cycle through many perspectives, environments, and people throughout your personal growth journey. However, you possess an innate understanding of the needs of yourself relative to others.

When the time comes to make a decision, you need only to soften your body and allow my consciousness – designed and assigned specifically for your benefit – to bring clarity to any confusion. If you choose to surrender and follow me, I will take you where you will feel most fulfilled.

I am a Sense of Self Spirit Animal: The Eagle of Healing

As the eagle I call on you to have the courage to abandon the familiar and to soar with confidence into the unknown. But have no fear! My expansive wings offer protection as you burst open and awaken to the courage and power within you. With my support, you can rise above the stories and struggles that keep you stagnant and small. 

My claws grab hold of the pain and stories deep inside of you and bring them into the light. When you bring what was hiding out into the universe, you learn to transmute the pain into peace. This ushers in new beginnings as you grow and realize what you are truly capable of in this lifetime.

I symbolize healing, new beginnings, and endless opportunities. With me by your side, you can find the confidence to reach new heights you never thought possible. 

I help you see the world from a different perspective. I am a protecting and supportive influence as you push past your limits and take flight, revealing your true Sense of Self. I provide you with the resilience you need to endure any obstacles along your healing  journey.

I am a Sense of Self Spirit Animal: The Tiger of Strength

I am unapologetic, intuitive, and courageous. My primary role is to give you the inner strength to look inside yourself in the most raw and truthful way.

My massive paws tear down distorted projections about yourself that do not reflect your truth. I am your shield against the drama and mind games that trick you into believing you are not good enough or that everything is falling apart. 

I serve as a reminder that strength comes from vulnerability. I provide you with the unwavering courage required to show up and examine separated aspects deep within yourself. As uncomfortable and unyielding as the depths of our own darkness may be, with me by your side, you will emerge from it stronger and stronger, time and time again. 

You are a beacon of light with a very specific purpose – to live as you are. No one can live your life for you. To understand who you are, you must understand who you are not and meet the darkness within you with absolute resolve. Over time, you develop the heart of a predator, chasing down the pain and ripping it away to reveal your authentic Sense of Self.

I am a Sense of Self Spirit Animal: The Peacock of Confidence

Now that you have debased the protective personality, and torn down the veils between the mind and spirit - I step forward to usher in a new era for your Sense of Self. I represent the power within you that has been waiting to be released.

As the Peacock of Confidence, I offer you a unique and powerful gift - to be on your own side. This immovable inner confidence is a space deep within that is quiet, sacred, stable, unwavering, and supportive. 

Each eye on my feather represents the ability to see and accept different aspects of yourself. Unblinking, they are a reminder that you have the right to feel, experience, and show all your colors and forms. 

For a long time now, you have held yourself and others to impossible standards. I encourage you to accept the distortions within you, and with grace, turn every conflict into an opportunity to grow. 

With a powerful Sense of Self, right and wrong, good and bad makes little sense anymore, it is all relative - relative to what is important to you.

Your Sense of Self is Promethean, interchangeable, and experimental - live using this framework, and you will experience the beauty and freedom of your humanity.

Like me, do what comes naturally to you - ruffle your feathers and fan out–the world is ready for you.

I am a Sense of Self Spirit Animal: The Stag of Honor

The stag stands tall with its head held high, holding space with great admiration and honor for you.

You have walked through the darkness in the healing phase and felt the deep sorrow, loneliness, and confusion when facing the shadow self. You have felt the strong resistance in the transformation phase as you worked to integrate the subconscious and conscious mind to reveal new truths. Throughout this process, you have judged yourself, felt powerful blame toward others, allowed deep anger to surface, then tears of compassion finally fell to the earth when you surrendered and decided to let it all go... grounding your authentic Sense of Self.

As the Stag of Honor, I serve you by reminding you to honor yourself for being brave enough, persistent enough, and loving enough to take on The Journey of the Snake - your unique Hero’s Journey of self discovery.

I help you reconnect with your inner child and understand that what you needed as a child was to feel safe, supported, validated, loved, and accepted - you need this still. I encourage you to have compassion for past versions of yourself when you didn’t get what you needed and forgive yourself and all the people who played a part in negative patterns that kept repeating.

Now is not the time to stop. Continue on your journey and meet yourself with compassion at every turn. With me by your side, you can approach your emotions and new life experiences with grace, gentleness, and deep self-respect. Open your heart wide and allow the blessings meant for you to arrive.

I am a Sense of Self Spirit Animal: The Butterfly of Transformation

There is tremendous beauty in life’s continuous unfolding. I help you embrace change and push past self-doubt to accept yourself in all of your forms.

Your limiting thoughts and belief systems trap you in what’s familiar and hold you back from your unlimited potential. I provide the safety of a cocoon as you discover fresh forms of yourself without fear, trusting your untested wings to fly without a doubt in your mind. During periods of intense personal growth, I bring ease and a sense of playfulness to the process. 

I remind you that growth and transformation do not have to be traumatic. It can be joyous and exciting. This is your permission slip to open up to the beauty and light within you as you morph into each unique expression of yourself.

Call on me when you need support in times of transition. I remind you to release any control when it comes to the outcome of this change. Allow my metamorphosis from cocoon to butterfly to be your guide as you let expectations flow through and around you. In the end, you will emerge as your most authentic Sense of Self.

I am a Sense of Self Spirit Animal: The Snake of Journey

Like the snake instinctively knows to shed its skin, I appear in your life when it’s time for you to release old patterns and ways of being.

To shed – an old identity, bad habits, toxic relationships – is to journey down a winding road. Along the way you will unearth and revisit deep-rooted issues, but each time brings a fresh perspective that helps you release the hold it has on you.

Like the snake seeks a safe space to shed its skin, I offer you protection as you reveal your Sense of Self, layer by layer, so you can begin to tap into your power. This allows you to cut any energetic cords bound by pain, guilt, or unworthiness that tether you to others. As you evolve, the winding road uncoils and becomes easier to travel.

You are a guiding force for others on this journey. I serve as a reminder of the sacred wisdom already inside of you waiting to be activated. Your ability to change gives others the strength to as well. You serve as an example for others, that growth comes from going through periods of discomfort and emerging as your most authentic Sense of Self.

With me around, know you are safe to go through each season of transformation in your life. Keep me close when you need the softness to shed what no longer serves you and the strength to regenerate again and again.
