Third Eye | Prairie Dog | Gorse
Things Are Always Working Out.
Prairie dog pops up from underground to remind you to keep your chin up, even if you are in a chapter of your life story that feels less than stellar. Have you developed a fear of having hope because things never seem to work out as you planned? Prairie dog may be here to signal that good news is on its way….remember, what goes down must always come back up. Prairie dog’s large, solemn eyes used to navigate dark, underground tunnels remind you to try to see the bigger picture right now rather than holding a narrow perspective. The smaller view through the eyes of ego alone always leads to disharmony and blame between the masculine and feminine, within yourself and within your relationships.
If you are feeling a sense of grief, hopelessness, or relationship distress, know that although it might not feel like it right now, things are always working out. You may have reached a deal-breaker or no-going-back moment in which it is important to remember that all things happen for a reason and in perfect timing. The life of a soul is eternal, but it can feel unbearable when we lose someone in the physical, whether through a separation, a break-up or a death. Prairie dog reminds you that when one door closes, you can be certain another will open. It is often the broken heart that leads one back to the wholeness of God.
In honoring the opposing principles of cosmic energy, yin and yang, we learn how to honor both life and death, light and dark, and day and night. We cannot have one without the other. If we get stuck in a chronic negative or dark outlook for too long we miss the moment that the sun comes out again. Be like prairie dog and retreat for a bit into quiet solitude to restore your sense of faith and eternal hope. Before you know it you will once again see the silver lining and understand the balance of your life’s journey.
