| Druid Animal Oracle |
For
today another card from the Druidcraft Animal Oracle: the Salmon. The keywords are:
wisdom inspiration and rejuvenation. We see the Salmon leaping from the water
to pluck the seed of a Hazel tree (the tree of wisdom) from the air. For the
druids the salmon was the oldest and wisest animal of them all. It is in the
nature of the Salmon to return to the place of their birth to mate and spawn. It
is a very dangerous and difficult journey to return to their source. They have
to overcome many obstacles.
Sometimes
it is wise to recapitulate your life’s journey to understand where you've come
from and how you've got here. And through that wisdom you can be inspired to continue
where you've left off or perhaps make a
change for the better.
Salmon is
teaching us to use our intuition; to listen to our gut feelings and to be kind to
ourselves and others when it gets difficult. Sometimes we do have to swim
upstream to follow our bliss. Who said life was easy. But Salmon knows it worth
it when she finally spawns. It is quite understandable the Queen of Vessels
from The Wildwood Tarot is also depicted as a Salmon.
