Hummingbird sits tranquilly upon a branch, exuding utter delight and awe of the wonder and magic of the infinite Universe.
While hovering in place, Hummingbird appears to be in a contemplative state of mind, then it suddenly flits away, zipping forwards and backwards and up and down. In this way, Hummingbird reminds you of the importance of not getting stuck in your head while also remembering to observe life from many perspectives.
Hummingbird says when you linger too long in repetitive thoughts they create a maddening loop going nowhere. Instead, be still during times of confusion, connect with your higher self, and trust and believe in the voice and wisdom of your heart.
Hummingbird wings are so small and fragile, yet they make a loud buzz when they fly. This is a lovely reflection to key in on those flashes of intuition landing in your heart with a clear sense of knowing, or something you hear that you clearly understand as the voice of truth speaking.
The more you welcome in sacred times to pause and connect inwardly before moving forward, the more developed and stronger your inner knowingness will become.
Believe in yourself and all of your capabilities while joyously partaking in all the sweet moments life has to offer.
Llama’s upper coat is coarse in order to help protect it from the elements, while the undercoat is soft to the touch. This serves as an excellent reflection that you have different facets, with each serving you on some level to help in your progression.
When encountering Llama, you can sense, from its staunch stance and head held high, its quiet self-assurance. Known for its ability to be well-grounded yet connected with the spiritual realm, Llama encourages you to instill both these practices into your life on a daily basis in order to feel harmony within yourself.
So often we default to a guru or other external influence for the answer because this is what we’ve been conditioned to believe. But Llama assures that you are your best healer.
While that may feel vulnerable and the responsibility of it may feel overwhelming for the time being, Llama is here enticing you to come to the edge and trust you have all the answers needed within to feel complete and whole.
Llama, known for its ability to sustain its oxygen levels even at high altitudes, reminds you of the importance of focusing on your breathing through difficult times and encourages you to remember you’ve got this.
When connected to your breath, you are able to move within to a safe space as you explore lingering inner wounds. Here is where you have the opportunity to observe patterns of protection you put in place. With Llama at your side, inhale lightly, then exhale slowly while allowing your emotions to freely move through you.
The more you can open to this instinctive flow, the more confident you become and the more you are able to embody the innate healer within.
