*Prophecy

*Sacred femenine energies

*Freedom

Falcon is sacred to Norse Goddess Frigg (Anglicized as Frigga), who kept her own set of falcon feathers. Freya's (the earlier Germanic Goddess Frija) sacred animals are the bear, falcon, horse, hare, raven, and the swan; she wears her spiritual falcon cloak to shape-shift into a bird and travel shamanic journey. Frigg and Freya were only nominally distinct figures by the late Viking Age, when our sources were recorded, and that these two figures, who had formerly been the same deity, were still practically the same personage in everything but name.

In translation, Circe means falcon and in many myths She is associated with the bird of prey.

THE LAST W!LD WITCH OR SHAMAN

En este bloc quizá despiste que, mezclados con los artículos sobre recetas, nutrición, etc., también los hay de espiritualidad (animales totémicos, senda chamánica...). Es todo inherente e inextricable a mi naturaleza de brujita de cocina. No obstante, el tema de interés número uno será el de nutrición y salud, pero no desde el punto de vista de una cocinera, o dietista o nutricionista etc. sino desde la visión orgánica y espiritual de una brujita de cocina. En la cocina de las brujas se tienen en cuenta muchas otras cosas.. se trabaja de otra manera.. es una alquimia diferente. Es una runa de fuego, agua, aire y tierra donde conectar con las raíces de la Tierra a través de los alimentos que tan generosamente nos legan sus bondades, propiedades y virtudes, haciéndonos así partícipes del Círculo Verde de la Savia Sabia.

excéntrico, ca.

(De ex- y céntrico).

1. adj. De carácter raro, extravagante. U. t. c. s.

2. adj. Geom. Que está fuera del centro, o que tiene un centro diferente.

3. m. Artista de circo que busca efectos cómicos por medio de ejercicios extraños y que, generalmente, toca varios instrumentos musicales.

4. m. Mec. Pieza que gira alrededor de un punto que no es su centro geométrico. Tiene por objeto transformar el movimiento circular continuo en rectilíneo alternativo.

ART JOURNALS & CREATIVE HEALING: Restoring the Spirit through Self-expression

"Tanto los animales como la Mujer Salvaje son especies en peligro de extinción. En el transcurso del tiempo hemos presenciado cómo se ha saqueado, rechazado y reestructurado la naturaleza femenina instintiva. Durante largos períodos, ésta ha sido tan mal administrada como la fauna silvestre y las tierras vírgenes. Durante miles de años, y basta mirar el pasado para darnos cuenta de ello, se ha relegado al territorio más yermo de la psique. A lo largo de la historia, las tierras espirituales de la Mujer Salvaje han sido expoliadas o quemadas, sus guaridas se han arrasado y sus ciclos naturales se han visto obligados a adaptarse a unos ritmos artificiales para complacer a los demás."

"No es ninguna casualidad que la prístina naturaleza virgen de nuestro planeta vaya desapareciendo a medida que se desvanece la comprensión de nuestra íntima naturaleza salvaje. No es difícil comprender por qué razón los viejos bosques y las ancianas se consideran unos recursos de escasa importancia. No es ningún misterio. Tampoco es casual que los lobos y los coyotes, los osos y las mujeres inconformistas tengan una fama parecida. Todos ellos comparten unos arquetipos instintivos semejantes y, como tales, se les considera erróneamente poco gratos, total y congénitamente peligrosos y voraces."

"Mi vida y mi trabajo como psicoanalista junguiana, poeta y cantadora, guardiana de los antiguos relatos, me han enseñado que la maltrecha vitalidad de las mujeres se puede recuperar efectuando amplias excavaciones "psíquico-arqueológicas" en las ruinas del subsuelo femenino. Recurriendo a estos métodos conseguimos recobrar las maneras de las psique instintiva natural y, mediante su personificación en el arquetipo de la Mujer Salvaje, podemos discernir las maneras y los medios de la naturaleza femenina más profunda. La mujer moderna es un borroso torbellino de actividad. Se ve obligada a serlo todo para todos. Ya es hora de que se restablezca la antigua sabiduría."

"El título de este libro, Las mujeres que corren con los lobos: Mitos y relatos del arquetipo de la Mujer Salvaje, procede de mis estudios de biología acerca de la fauna salvaje y de los lobos en particular. Los estudios de los lobos Canis lupus y Canis rufus son como la historia de las mujeres, tanto en lo concerniente a su coraje como a sus fatigas.

Los lobos sanos y las mujeres sanas comparten ciertas características psíquicas, una aguda percepción, un espíritu lúdico y una elevada capacidad de afecto. Los lobos y las mujeres son sociales e inquisitivos por naturaleza y están dotados de una gran fuerza y resistencia. Son también extremadamente intuitivos y se preocupan con fervor por sus vástagos, sus parejas y su manada. Son expertos en el arte de adaptarse a las circunstancias siempre cambiantes y son fieramente leales y valientes.

Y sin embargo, ambos han sido perseguidos, hostigados y falsamente acusados de ser voraces, taimados y demasiado agresivos y de valer menos que sus detractores. Han sido el blanco de aquellos que no sólo quieren limpiar la selva sino también el territorio salvaje de la psique, sofocando lo instintivo hasta el punto de no dejar ni un rastro de él. La depredación que ejercen sobre los lobos y las mujeres aquellos que no los comprenden es sorprendentemente similar."

Introducción: CANTANDO SOBRE LOS HUESOS

COYOTE: ADAPTING WITH HUMOR AND FLEXIBILITY

Coyote is tricky, funny, and adaptable. He offers you his companionship, his celebratory howl, his wit, and teachings of life as they appear without warning. He is the wise and bumbling fool, on a new journey, sometimes learning things the hard way. What makes Coyote such a spectacular companion on what can sometimes feel like a hayride to hell, is his humor. There is magic in his ways, as he gets lost on side roads, scavenges for nourishment wherever he can find it, and amuses himself along the way. Coyotes are very close with their loved ones, snuggling in the den, and cooperatively hunting and parenting. They are nurturing, playful and spirited. Wild, free and never to be extinct, his lesson is one of endurance, longevity and a fulfilled life of meaningful song and dance. Coyote is, in many ways, invincible. Coyote is the trooper, always ready for the journey. Coyote medicine vitality, adaptability and humor during the long process of treatment and healing.

TROOPER

This Coyote Spirit is dedicated to the foot soldier in all of us, whom we hopefully do not have to be at all times, yet need to call upon occasionally. Coyotes are persistent survivors, adapting so easily with their diets and habitats. Coyote travels the rough terrain, establishing territories everywhere. He learns his lessons the hard way, keeping a sense of humor about him as he goes. He turns rigid thinking upside down, preferring to keep it light, while adapting in order to survive. He is a humble teacher, a blissed out fool, an accidental genius. His song carries over mountaintops to find his kind. He is persistent, enduring and prolific. There is nothing he can't do, nowhere he won't go. He is fearless. Coyote outlasts bad weather, yipping contentedly through his long days and many journeys.

SOULFOOTING. LIVELY, FLUFFY, COZY GUIDANCE.

Soulfooting, featuring Fox, is about the intuitive process which leads to one's sacred truth. An opening occurs when paws find the path that has been waiting for them. When the right medicine is discovered, the woodland warrioress can rest trusting the unknown. Feminine Fox shapeshifts, allowing magic and mystery into one's soul experience. Finding Soulfooting refers to unearthing your place of sacred comfort inside of your own fur, asking for what you want, and being especially and boldly specific about it. If you've ever had the pleasure of seeing a Fox or it's tail, you know that it is her shining glory. It is FAT, FLUFFY and by far, one of the most beautiful and cozy tails in the animal kingdom. She uses it to curl up into, and keep warm, to navigate with like a rudder, to strut her stuff. Her tail activates instinct, kundalini, sensuality, self-sanctuary, mystique, camouflage.

CHANGE. FOXY MAMA

I knew last Fall that change was coming. I kept referring to 2011 as Year of the Fox without knowing exactly what that meant, and I still don't...exactly. I sit in the ultimate unknown, wondering what aspects of my life will really shapeshift and turn corners, knowing that Fox's giant fluffy tail will comfort me through the moments as change rolls in and over me. All I can do is take refuge and cozy down in my den with my kits when necessary. In this painting, Fox is graceful change. She begins her process opening up to new patterns she may not have considered before. Fox changes herself to bring about a desired situation, not unlike shapeshifting. She may use camouflage or invisibility to burrow under and blend in if necessary, in order to find out how she fits in. She listens carefully, creates comfort all around her, and tunes into her instincts. Her keen perception serves her well when the time comes to make a decision. Fox cozies up and protects herself before she trots off into her new adventure, expecting the unexpected, and willing to be guided. This little vixen is ready for whatever comes next!

STORYTELLER. PINK FOX

Fox is so prominent for me right now. I feel she represents what is growing in my world, in our world. She brings enchanting stories of possibility with her, of the healing energy that makes giant creative leaps possible. In our tribe, Fox is a symbol of family, and the unity and commitment we share as a group. This little one carries a message of what we can experience when we gather together in sacred trust and kinship. I sense that she is off into the woods to have a secret tryst with her comrades, to share stories and learn about herself and the world by communing with her friends.
