Spending some Quality Time at the Columbus Zoo… A great  chance to explore North America and check out all the bears.

There's a polar bear In our Frigidaire—

He likes it 'cause it's cold in there.

With his seat in the meat And his face in the fish

And his big hairy paws In the buttery dish,

He's nibbling the noodles,He's munching the rice,

He's slurping the soda,He's licking the ice.

And he lets out a roar If you open the door. And it gives me a scare To know he's in there—

That polary bear In our Fridgitydaire. “Bear In There” by Shel Silverstein

Bears are amazingly fast.  The grizzly and black bear can reach speeds of up to 35 to 40 mph.   And all bears can climb and are therefore associated with trees.  Trees are a powerful and ancient symbol, as is the bear, and both are links to the Heavens and the Earth. 

The Bear is the epitome of the protective mother.  She represents your hidden  strength.  Bear says to look inward in order to know ones self.  Her medicine  awakens the power of the unconscious.  Bear’s  cycle of power is the spring and summer.

Bears  are considered to be a highly desired ally and spirit helper because of its fearless power. It is believed that the power of
Great spirit lives though the bear.  The bear holds the teachings of introspection.  When it shows up in your life pay attention to how
you think, act and interact.  Use discernment in all that you do and discriminate with care.  Bear teaches you how to make choices. Read More 

The eagle is believed to be a sacred messenger, carrying our prayers to the Creator and returning with gifts and visions for the people. It's cycle of power is year-round and daytime.  Its message speaks of the illumination of spirit, healing and creation.

When you have the wolf as a spirit animal, it could be an expression of your sharp intelligence and strong instincts. ( Must be me ) The wolf symbolizes a strong connection with instincts and when it appears as a animal spirit guide, it could point to a way of perceiving and understanding the world around you that works similarly.

Ducks are associated with the element of water. They are good deep water swimmers and also are content to glide on top of a body of water. As a totem the duck teaches getting in touch with your deepest emotions in order to get to a calmer state.

Buffalo/Bison medicine is knowing that abundance is present when all relations are honored as sacred and when gratitude is expressed to every part of creation. READ MORE
