Bi-monthly Card Reading

Card Deck Information

 This reading is using my upcoming card deck: The Sacred Circle Spirit Animal Oracle. 

Reading

 This is a one card reading done on the North American Sacred Circle or Medicine Wheel. The card sits in the center of the circle and represents the Creator or Center Stone, which is said to contain the Void and all of creation—the stars, planets, Animal Kingdom, Plant Kingdom, Mineral Kingdom, etc. This Stone is governed by the Great Spirit and our Highest Self.  It is the place of balance at the heart or center of the Sacred Circle where we can go within ourselves to access the wisdom and guidance needed from every aspect in the cycles of life.  

MOON ORACLE MESSAGE


Question: What Special Message Does Woodpecker Want to me to carry through from the completion of the Full Hot Sun Moon of Mid-June-Mid-July to the Full Thunder Moon of Mid-July-Mid-August?

  

Animal Guide Medicine—Woodpecker, The Hot Sun Moon (Mid-June-Mid-July)


Card #29: The Hot Sun Moon (Woodpecker-Mid-June-Mid-July)


 Teaching: The first moon of Shawnodese—the Spirit Keeper of the South; it is the first moon of Summer and the Moon nearest the June Solstice. It is under the influence of the Frog Clan and is connected to the first stone on the Spirit Path of the South—Growth. The Hot Sun Moon ushers in a time of growth and trust for all living things. It will teach you the importance of expressing yourself through your emotions—using them positively to nurture yourself and others. It will caution you against wallowing in your emotions or being afraid of using them to take a strong stance in expressing your truth and values when it is important to do so. And it will awaken your inner rhythmic sounds for manifesting all healing love through forgiveness.


Meaning: Woodpecker is the Spirit Animal that best represents the Hot Sun Moon and can teach you about new spiritual growth, balance, and nurturing your efforts. Woodpecker can maneuver both on the ground and in the air. It takes off from the Earth with a long, boundless flight that represents the potential for new bounding spiritual growth. Both of its feet have two toes that point forward and two that point backwards, which allows Woodpecker to find perfect balance when perched on the side of a tree; and its long, agile tongue allows it to gather the nourishment it needs to nurture and sustain its efforts.


The unique markings on Woodpecker’s throat and head are representative of the three upper chakras—the Throat, Third Eye, and Crown Chakras—which serve as a reminder that your latent talents, sensitivities, emotions, and intuition are about to be activated. The Red Shafted Flicker, a special kind of Woodpecker, signals that these abilities will lead you to creative changes in your material life that will bring success in your work or career through unconventional ideas. The Yellow Shafted Flicker or Woodpecker will lead you to creative changes in your internal, spiritual perceptions rather than in your outer world. In addition, the black moon crescent markings on this Woodpecker’s chest are a symbol of emotions and sensitivity. It reflects the energies of the New Moon—energies that will cause you to experience intense emotions that will trigger your ability to express all healing love through the power of forgiveness.


As the emissary of the Hot Sun Moon, Woodpecker’s Strongest Medicine is the Power of Rhythm. Its stout bill is made for drumming on trees, and the consistency of its drumbeats reminds you to be tenacious with your many endeavors. Woodpecker’s drumming signals you to find your own rhythmic beat to enter a new growth cycle. It also teaches that rhythm is the key to greater understanding of the past, present, and future and is the power that connects you to Mother Earth’s nurturing heartbeat. Woodpecker’s unique rhythms can also align you with any other rhythmic pattern in the Universe, and its “drumming” reminds you that you must learn how to be in synchronization with the natural rhythms of the Universe, if you want things to work out in your life with relative ease. To honor your own rhythms is to come back into harmony with the Self. Once you do this, you will be able to harmonize with the other rhythms of life. It will allow you to be supported by the heartbeat of the Earth, so that your body can pull in the energy needed from the Earth to replenish itself. It will keep your body from struggling to keep up with your thoughts, your life will become more effortless, and you will become the song and the dance of unity and oneness with all life.

Cosmic Vibrations

  

Actions

  

  • Meditate on this haiku outside in nature, on a nature walk, or while listening to your favorite music. 
  • Watch a nature series or go on YouTube or Google and watch some woodpecker movies or videos or stories. 
  • If you want something fun to watch, see if you can locate some Woody Woodpecker cartoons.
  • Write down your reflections from being out in nature or from watching videos, pictures, or cartoons in a notebook or journal. Create a piece of art that reflects your feelings. How might the Woodpecker prove to be a powerful ally to you? How can you apply Woodpecker Medicine in your life this week?
  • If you live near a forest or park, listen for any sounds of the Woodpecker drumming in the trees. See if you can catch the Woodpecker flitting quickly from branch to branch. They can be difficult to spot, but easier to hear. 
  • The Woodpecker’s drumming is percussive. Try doing some drumming, or if you don’t have a drum, you can still create percussive rhythms with your hand on a table or other similar surface. Experiment with different rhythms to find the ones that resonate most with you. Are they slow or fast? Loud or soft? Record how each makes you feel in a notebook or journal.
  • Woodpecker is a master of discerning rhythmic patterns in life. Gather some small, medium, and large stones. Imagine a rhythm for each one. Then create a rhythm to represent each stone. Tap or drum each of the rhythms. Which one is slower? Faster? Why? Which one is louder? Softer? Which one is at a higher or lower frequency? Practice matching each of the rhythms with the pace of your breathing and then with the pace of your walking. How does each one make you feel? Why? 
  • Which rhythm is most aligned with your own? Which is least aligned? Why? How can you best use each of these rhythms in your daily life to your advantage? Think outside the box.
  • What do you think your own personal rhythm sounds like? Create a drumming practice that depicts it through sound. Practice it often-especially when you feel stressed. Does it bring you back into alignment. Why or why not? Use it as a form of meditation whenever you feel stressed or out of synchronization with the Universe.
  • Keep a journal or notebook to record how drumming your own rhythmic pattern has impacted and improved your life. Try changing and finding new rhythmic patterns that express who you are. Keep track of your reactions to each and keep using the ones that affect you for good.
  • Prompts: What kinds of music do you like best? Pick one of your favorite pieces of music to listen to and see if you can find the rhythmic patterns in it that resonate most. Try to duplicate this rhythmic pattern percussively while you are listening to the music. Duplicate it percussively independently of the music. Which is easier? Why? Write down any sensations you feel when you are listening to the music as well as when you are creating the rhythmic pattern of it on your own. Record any thoughts, sensations, or reactions you have. Which is strongest? Which is most meaningful? How can you use this to deepen your daily life experience?
  • Spend time doing rhythmic drumming meditation for the next two weeks. It can be as little as 15 minutes a day if you are busy. Celebrate your gifts and gratitude by creating percussive rhythms for each. 
  • Use the drumming as an offering to Mother Earth for her blessings and use it as a way of communing with her on a regular basis. If you can sit with a tree out in nature and feel its rhythms as a Woodpecker might, it can deepen your drumming practice. Be creative and don’t be afraid to express yourself through drumming the rhythms of everything around you.

What Special Message Does Woodpecker Want to Share with Me as I Approach the Final Two Weeks of the Hot Sun Moon?

  

Teaching—Drumming: I just got back from a trip to Canyon de Chelly near the border of Arizona and New Mexico in the Four Corners Area of the U.S. In a tree outside my window at Thunderbird Lodge, a Woodpecker came to share its rhythmic messages. It was an opportunity to wake up to the sound of rhythmic drumming every morning. It gave me the chance to start my day in sync with the heartbeat of Mother Earth and the heart at the center of the Universe. And it reminded me that I could commune and listen to the land with gratitude and love if I could hear, see, or feel the rhythmic pattern in the rocks, stones, and trees around me. And so, I set out to do that.


The Canyon is old—older than the ancient Anasazi who left their stories carved in the ruins of time. And I remembered that drumming came to the Children of Earth during the first Ice Age when they gathered in unity around the new discovery of Fire. I can imagine that the first drumming tools came from leftover bones from their meals which they used to beat out a rhythm on hollow logs. It was during this time that all five races of the Children of Earth learned that the low, resonating sound of the drum connected them to the heartbeat of the Earth Mother. Once that connection was established, they began to see, hear, and feel the connection between the rhythmic patterns in her creations and the Cosmos. Drumming became a “blueprint” to align the collective energies needed for healing, prayer, gratitude, and journeying to obtain wisdom from the Invisible Realms. 


As I looked up at the towering vastness of the stone walls from the bottom of the Canyon, the Woodpecker’s rhythms spoke to my heart reminding me to slow down and align my own rhythmic patterns from the center of my Sacred Space. As I did this, I began to sense the deeper, slower rhythms recorded in stone long before humans arrived as well as the rhythms of the Anasazi, Hopi, and Navajo who came after. Woodpecker showed me that I could align my rhythms with those of the ancient stones to access the life-force within and without and understand for a moment that everything exists simultaneously in time and space. 


Soul Message:  When Woodpecker has spoken to you through drumming during the Hot Sun Moon, you are being asked to find your own internal timing. You are being asked to realign your soul’s needs with your body’s needs. Ask yourself if you are pushing your body too hard, or if you are not pushing it hard enough. Then, honor your body, your mind, and your soul rhythms by finding the synchronicity within them. 


To honor your own rhythms is to come back into harmony with the Self. Once you do this, you will be able to harmonize with the other rhythms of life. It will allow you to be supported by the heartbeat of the Earth, so that your body can pull in the needed energy from the Earth to replenish itself. It will keep your body from struggling to keep up with your thoughts and life will become more effortless.


Drumming with Woodpecker during the Hot Sun Moon will teach you the importance of expressing yourself through your emotions—using them positively to nurture yourself and others. It will caution you against wallowing in your emotions or being afraid of using them to take a strong stance in expressing your truth and values when it is important to do so. And it will awaken your inner rhythmic sounds for manifesting all healing love through forgiveness.


As the emissary of the Hot Sun Moon, Woodpecker teaches that rhythm is the key to greater understanding of the past, present, and future. When you become more aware of the rhythms around you, you will be able to see how yours fit in. When it feels right, you become the song and the dance of your life which will ultimately become a celebration of unity and oneness with all life.
