#warriorbird

And we started the character design challenge with a maned bird as a warrior and with its pet at sunset.

I was gifted a Humming Bird yesterday. Hummingbird totem symbolizes being messenger, timelessness, healing, and warrior. Ecstatic, love, happiness, beat of life, miracle of joy of living, shows endurance so you don't burn yourself out, teaches ability to heal, enhances awareness with an ability to move and act accordingly. It shows how to accomplish what seems impossible and how to bring the miracle of joy back into your life. Hummingbird reminds us to find that happiness in all things. It represents the joy of living and brings with it the ability to see beauty in everything. It comes when we need to spend time soaking in the love of nature so we can learn how to integrate joy into our lives. The hummingbird is the creature that opens the heart. When we assume hummingbird consciousness, our life becomes a wonderland of sensuous delights. We live for beauty, delighting in flowers, aromas, fine mist, and delicate tastes. When it becomes our totem, the hummingbird teaches us to laugh and enjoy the creation, to appreciate the magic of being alive, and the truth of beauty. Hummingbirds awaken us to the beauty of the present moment. As they dance the four quarters of embodied existence, they bring us medicine to solve the riddle of duality. They also awaken us to the medicinal properties of plants. Hummingbirds teach us how to draw the life essence from flowers. "They can teach us how to use flowers to heal and win hearts in love." Hummingbirds teach us fierce independence. They teach us to fight in a way where no one really gets hurt. They teach us simple courage. They are known to dive bomb into any raptor that is too close to its nest or feeding ground. They also inspire us to protect the environment and to preserve old traditions that are in danger of being lost. When Native American ways were being destroyed by the expanding Euro-American culture, the Ghost-Shirt religion was established to try to bring back the animals and old ways through dancing. The leader of the dance was a hummingbird. Certainly hummingbird magic is available to all. #hummingbird #hummingbirdtotem #perseverance #ghostshirt #nativeamerican #redroad #warriorbird
