Animal Dreaming, founded by Scott Alexander King, takes a shamanic approach to looking at the natural world, the animals and the Earth Mother herself.
According to Scott, the Earth is our Mother. We are her children. Like any mother, she wants us to grow, heal and unite as a people. She speaks to us every day. She speaks to us in a symbolic tongue. A tongue we have long forgotten and no longer understand. That language is older than words and is presented to us in the form of animals.
The animals each have a message to impart. We need to look once again to the ways of the animals and integrate their wisdom into our lives. The animals do not make mistakes. Spirit does not make mistakes. If we heed the medicine ways of the animals, we, too, will forget how to make mistakes.
The ancients knew this ancient language. And we are being urged to remember it. When we look to the Medicine Ways of Nature, we see the Earth and all the creatures that live upon it, as messengers imbued with particular characteristics that offer insight into our own true natures.
When we open ourselves to the guidance of Animal Teachers, we receive confirmation of our innate strengths and the medicine we need to heal life’s sorrows. When we experience interdependence with all life, we find our own honoured place in Creation.

Animal Encounter: Yellow Horse
🐎💛
In my world, there is a horse that stands sentry at the gateway to each of the four directions. The 'yellow' horse (the palomino, as an example) is the keeper of the east, the embodiment of the element air, the essence of spring, and the keeper of sacred medicine centred on new beginnings, fresh thoughts and ideas, new ventures, and even birth.

Looking all the world like a cross between a mouse and a shrew, the antechinus enjoys a passionate but precarious love life. The males rarely survive a mating due to their hearts giving out. Poor little buggers.

Animal Encounter: White Horse
🐎🤍
In my world, there is a horse that stands sentry at the gateway to each of the four directions. The white horse is the keeper of the south (here in the southern hemisphere), the embodiment of the element earth, the essence of winter, and the keeper of sacred medicine centred on maturity, wisdom, surrender, closure, celebration and even death.
🐎🤍
This particular white horse is a Gypsy Cob who is fortunate enough to call my friend's place, @riverlaneranch home.

Animal Encounter: Kingfisher
💙
Kingfisher will often make itself known nearing the end or just after difficult times have subsided. They come heralding a time of peace and calm. I remember finding a dead kingfisher once, just before a dark chapter in my life presented itself. I knew that my sense of calm was about to be upturned, but I also knew that it wouldn't be forever. Kingfisher always promises a return to a state of peace, even if the wait feels never-ending at the time.

Without bees, there’s no life. Bees keep everything in balance. Besides that ... in my world (symbolically) HONEY = MONEY, with the idea of golden honey dripping from the hive reminding me of golden coins falling from an over-full purse, wallet or pouch.

Animal Encounter: Blue Wren
🐦
To the members of our immediate family, the Blue Wren is a psychopomp: a messenger of the Afterworld, who delivers healing, confirmation and joy from a significant, very special loved one in spirit.

Animal Encounter: Magpie Goose
🖤🤍
I love how, in Australia, we really spend quality time when deciding on the best names to describe our wildlife. We discover a black snake that has a red belly, for example, and we name it the red-bellied black snake. We have wallaby that has a red neck ... so we name it the red-necked wallaby! Genius! So what do we call a goose that has black and white plumage like a magpie? Why, the magpie goose of course! 🤣

Originally brought to Australia as an alternative source of meat, we now have several species of feral deer (such as the fallow, hog, red and samba), all of which were intentionally released after the bottom fell out of the farmed venison market many years ago.

I was surprised by the peace I found while wandering through the lovingly kept Pet Cemetery during my visit to @lilydaleassembly in upstate New York a year or so ago. A deeply spiritual place where beloved pets rest eternal knowing that their time spent here on Earth was cherished by their human companions. Powerful and moving, to say the least.
