oooh! while having something like that in my home would also upset me and especially if it kept flying at me-- it sounds like a really cool thing to have happened! As for it being a grandparent--now THAT really intrigues me even more! But, I wonder why your grandparent wouldn't just come to you in the form that you would know them? When my deceased family members come to me--they appear to me in a way that I know them, (tho sometimes younger from when I knew them!) and/or if I can't 'see' them--then with an aroma that would help to identify them.Well, not long before this I got up to use the bathroom, & there was a HUGE tropical swallowtail moth in the kitchen! It's a rare thing. Started flying all over the place as soon as I switched on the light. It was NOT attracted to the light! I was fascinated by its wings, but couldn't help freaking out when it started flying at me. If only it would stay still so I could admire those wings!
Local folklore says that this is a dead grandparent visiting. Oh I don't know...
Like my dad comes smelling of cigarette smoke--as he was a smoker. My uncle, comes with his pipe smell, and my mother in law--of her favorite perfume. that sort of thing.
Do you have any idea which grandparent it may have been?
Oh thank you! I'll have to check this out!Since we're on that topic and speaking recommendations, I'd also want to drop a few suggestions. I really enjoy listening to Gerry Starnes on youtube speaking about shamanism. He is very clear and practical. I've also come across some lectures by Hachumak - very few, unfortunately, but the information is well worth the listen.
And recently I bought "Animal Speak" - quite detailed and enlightening. Definitely recommended to anyone who's interested in the subject of animal medicine.
I don't really know of anything on foxes or butterflies, but would recommend you google "fox power animal" and see what comes up.This is something new that has started to interest me only recently. If we go with what animals I see, I've seen butterflies as prints and pictures everywhere. They pop out to me from surprising corners and I've also just realised that the most recent shirt and scarf I bought have butterfly prints on them. However, I take this to mean I'm currently undergoing a transformation and butterflies herald that more than being a totem animal.
I haven't been able to see any animals in meditation, even though I normally see vivid and vibrant visions, like videos. However, I feel affinity for foxes. Coincidentally, once I had my hair done and the supposedly blond highlights turned out fox-fur colour by accident and I loved it Anybody has any more knowledge about a fox as a totem animal? I've read it's about wits and intelligent, but I don't connect with the associated slyness or deceptiveness at all.
yes, that was an interesting experience. I wish you more happy researching on your animal, and perhaps some just as exciting visits from them!It was very cool! And is! I'm still researching the animal I wonder how you know when it is done guiding you?
I would suspect this is the clue. Just like with guides. I had a guide, whom I miss terribly, that I named "Joe". He never told me his name, but I asked if I could call him "Joe". Anyway, he is no longer with me, because apparently his job was done with me and I now have a new guide. I do miss Joe. Actually, I have had him come to me briefly a few times since the new guide came into my life--but its always very short visits and often times only a viewing of him, smiling at me. I miss him terribly!For me, the animal just stops showing up. There was a time I kept hearing and noticing orioles. Now that's stopped, & I am in a new phase of my journey.
As for the power animal--I have many memories of the black panther being with me on astral travels that I've done and some shamanic journeys too. I wish everyone could experience visits like these with their guides--both spiritual guides and power animal guides. There is truly nothing that can compare to it!
