Center: The animal spirit that appears in the center of the Medicine Wheel reflects who you are at this point in time.

 
Opossum

You?ve heard the expression ?playing possum?? It means to play dead and is derived from Opossum?s ability to act in whatever way the situation demands. If it?s practical to play dead, so be it; if it?s to Opossum?s advantage to be aggressive, watch out! Take your cue from this master actor today?and play the role that will serve you best.

 

 

North: The animal that appears in the North shows you how to walk your talk. Here lies your connection with your Higher Self.

 
Polar Bear

Has Polar Bear lumbered into your reading? If so, he's reminding you of the value of being flexible. Polar Bear instinctively knows how to conserve his energy and will observe a situation before he takes action. Once he decide it's the appropriate time to move forward, however, he has the strength, energy, and fortitude to face whatever dangers lie ahead. Having problems making a change? Polar Bear is here to help, and his message to you is: Take heart, have courage, build your strength, then MOVE!

 

 

East: This animal reveals the direction you need to take in order to gain clarity about your present situation.

 
Squirrel

Hoard, hoard, hoard! Squirrel has been a busy fellow, gathering food for the long winter ahead?and he advises you to do the same. Have you set enough money aside to get you through lean times, or do you squander what you earn? We all love a shopping spree, but if Squirrel scurries into your reading, he's cautioning you to spend a little, but also save a little.

 

 

South: This animal explores issues dealing with your inner child, and shows the energy needed to trust your own process.

 
Turtle

Turtle carries his home on his back, and his question to you today is whether your life is weighed down with ?things? that serve no purpose. Everyone loves buying stuff, but do you use shopping, spending, and the acquisition of ?things? as a substitute for passion, conviction, commitment? It?s worth thinking about, isn?t it?

 

 

West: The animal that appears in the West holds the answer to your present challenge.

 
Coyote

Taking yourself too seriously? If you are, Coyote will throw a banana peel in your tracks just to see you take a silly spill. Coyote medicine is Trickster medicine?the practical joker, the chaos maker. If Coyote appeared in your reading today, be ready for a curveball thrown in your direction. Remember, though, Coyote uses the bizarre to help us learn lessons we just can't seem to get any other way.
