Welcome back to the Zoo in my heart!
The Beluga or actually the whale in general is a totem that has come to me in my dreams. It brings me a message of fearlessness and personal power. In American Indian traditions, this noble creature is often seen as the keeper of ancestral wisdom or cellular memory.
From Big whale to tiny Bee... The bee is one of my most important totems ( along with deer and jaguar) It symbolizes community. This is not just my personal vision of this little creature. In nature, the bee like the ant is reliant on its community. It works as a part of a larger organism and puts the needs of that organism before its personal needs.
Bee has come to me in my dreams. At one point in my life I had a mystic circle of 13 women. We were able to spin a lot of magic with dreams and even telepathic communication.
With time the villain ego started disintegrating the group. I dreamt that bee was at the bottom of a water glass and dying... I noticed that the more attention I gave her the stronger she became and in the dream I was able to restore her health.
The circle regained power for a moment but never regained the power and magic it had in its first few years but I went on to focus my intentions on community work and kept my Bee energy strong.
Let my power fuel the creative and loving part of community is what I say!
