I was getting ready to sit down and drum in my living room area, and as I sat down to play the drum, a hummingbird came up to the window. Usually, there is a hummingbird feeder, but it broke last season, so we replaced it with a regular bird feeder.

As I watched them try to figure out that the feeder was not their food, I realized that It had been a while since I got an intuitive download from animals.

We have been in the care and protection of the lion spirit since the winter solstice, and the journey I have been on since my last intuitive download has been intense. Being in the online space can be very demanding and draining.

The hummingbird brings the collective a chance to rise above earthly matters and transcend our dogmas and worn-out belief patterns. For too long, we have attached to judgments of ourselves and others. I am guilty of this myself. Inner child trauma can cause havoc on the relationships we create with others.

Self-sabotage is one of my biggest battles.

Maybe some of you can relate?

Once I know things are going well, I will get into a poverty mindset and start doubting my path. There are always triggers or stimuli that will manipulate our path. I hope your inner strength, matched with a support team, is available.

We must remember:

Our inner world will reflect on our external. We can also become influenced by external factors. Always use your discernment by asking essential questions and creating SMART goals.

Specific

Measurable

Achievable

Relevant

Time-sensitive

The hummingbird is a perfect transition; the actual message is to take medicine from releasing the pressure of society and fly through to the next destination along the journey. Be unique and vibrant, and know when to appreciate the beauty within you and others. Our newfound boundaries and self-respect we learned from the lion spirit have permitted us now to embrace a less harsh and more lighthearted energy that the hummingbird offers.

Sometimes, we have a strong character like the lion, which is warranted in some situations and moments. However, we can firmly be strong. We must show a sense of compassion, humor, and passion. Permit yourself to lead with nurturing wisdom, devotion, and gratitude.

The crucial question the hummingbird spirit has for all of us Is:

How are we nourishing ourselves?

There will be times when we get challenged by everything and anything you can imagine. A pressure most would not be able to endure. There is no magic pill; there is no magic cure. You are the key to your continued success or failure. Be brave enough to build a new pathway and be open enough to share. It’s transition time, and I am so proud of all of you!
