The animals inspired me to draw three cards this morning from my Animal Reflections Healing Oracle deck and share with you their wisdom for the coming year. It’s a message you’ve no doubt heard before, but it’s one that many of us need reminding of as we continue to heal what needs healing within ourselves. And this, I believe, helps us shift the planet, one-by-one to a more peaceful place.
Animal Wisdom for 2025
Hippo reminds us that our true HOME is within and gently embracing all aspects of who we are.
And when those sneaky doubts slink back in, Hummingbird swoops in and flutters before us with excitement, encouraging us again to BELIEVE in the magical gifts that reside in each of us.
Kingfisher, so bright with its magnificent colors, lovingly calls out to us in its beautiful song as a reminder to never stop SEEKING the wonder of it all – the stars, the planets, the Universe! Everything is alive and here supporting us!

I also recently completed this custom 8 x 8 3D mixed media collage Animal Art (thank you, Connie!) and felt the additional message from Mountain Goat is a great one for the New Year also.
When Connie asked me to create this custom piece I asked her what it is about Mountain Goat she liked. She shared with me that it was during a spirit animal workshop I co-facilitated a few years ago that Mountain Goat came to her during the meditation portion of the workshop. At first she was disappointed. But then she learned how they can traverse any surface without falling and appreciated their teaching for her of perseverance, grit, and grace.
Don’t you just love grit and grace together? I do!
Animals have this amazing ability to show up at just the right time with just the message we need. So it’s best not to question what animal may appear and keep your heart open to exploring what you can learn. You just may be pleasantly surprised!
Our perseverance has certainly been tested these past few years, but I do hope you are feeling a shift of the energy and one of grace as we move into 2025.
Happy New Year!
P.S. I am available for a limited amount of custom pieces. So if you are interested, let me know!
