Listening to warnings from our Totems

I would love to give the idea that as a Medicine Woman I am perfectly attuned to Spirit and being so very attuned live a simply enchanted life each and every moment.
Sorry to shatter any illusions- but I have my moments of being extremely thick-dense-dumb... yup-I do!

I walk a nature trail in the mornings- I love it! I have never had any moments that were fearful or even scary till today!

1st of all on my way to the trail I realized I had forgotten my walking stick and cell phone and because I started my day off early in the office I had not eaten a proper protein filled breakfast(I am diabetic) and had not done my morning prayer and meditation .
OK-so I thought- it'sll be OK-I have a protenin bar-I can pick up a stick,etc... etc.

I get to the track and my dog basically won't jump out of the car-unusual-but still I picked him up and pressed on...

As I neared the trail I pass by a bike track-Immediately notice a man with very strange energy riding a bike-unlike the other bikers he was riding on the far outside of the track and seemed to be not tuned into his workout but he appeared to be watching me...alright I am overweight but I have a pretty face and 42f chest-many men find that attractive...

I had the intuitive gut feeling he was going to leave the bike track and follow me into the woods- but nah-Sandy you are just imagining things..

I get into the wooded trail and standing in my path are 4 deer- they ran off the trail but barely-the buck was snorting and pawing at the ground-though I had no fear about them harming me I was perplexed because I had never experienced that from one of my main totems-I usually experience them as very love filled Mother and babies.. so I walked on by...

As SOON as I walked by a Hawk started to cry -and cry and cry-scream really- up ahead by the little pond area was my friend the Sacred White Hawk- sitting very near me high up in a tree-

I said to him-I know why you are here -you are hunting the little birds coming to eat the ripe elderberries-but when you are hunting why are you making such a fuss!??

I FINALLY got it that it was a warning- as I was taking steps forward his cries got more and more intense-till I got the words STOP on my mind...

So I stopped and sat on a large stone to hear what hawk needed to say.

These are his words

You need to turn around and leave NOW
You are very much like a dove
and in many ways that is good
But you are in danger
Just as a predator I stalk the little birds who are unaware of me and I strike
So you are being watched by a predator.
Unlike me who only hunts for food
This predator hunts to cause pain, he enjoys torturing, causing fear and pain and a slow,pianful beyond imagining death.
He has his eyes on you now
He is like a spider that watchs
He does not target a specific woman
but waits for one unaware one to come into his web
Walking alone unprotected in the woods with not even your walking stick or your phone or a knife -you are vulnerable.
You must be less like the dove and more like the Bear
Become aware of your surroundings
Slow down and feel the energy
If you feel disruptive energy -leave the space.
Like a Bear carries protective ability on her with her claws and sharp teeth you must be aware of protections-both energetic and physical.
Turn around,go home and write to warn others.
You live in the time of the ravenous lone wolf. The time of the the deadly spider entrapping its victim.
Being overly innocent is not cute-it is not sweet -it is lethal.

If you will be aware I will not have to basically chase you from the forrest again!
Tomorrow is another day-come earlier in the morning-say your protective prayers- eat your good breakfast-bring your phone and walking stick and knife and even get pepper spray and an  alarm whistle !
Don't be a victim!
The world needs powerful Light beings-but being so of the light you may fail to see the gathering darkness and you may fail to act...

And so I turned around- the hawk flew over my head- and he escorted me out of the nature trail-I could see his shadow over me -literally-he circled over the biker I had been afraid of- casting his shadow over that one as well-

I believe I was saved today by warnings from my animal friends- either from an unwanted encounter-to as bad as "Hiker murdered on woodland trail-news at 11"
