Horned Toad Lizard Animal Medicine
Found this little guy while looking for a prickly pear snack… a horned toad. It is actually a lizard and this little guys defense is to shoot blood out of its eyes, although it is rare that you would ever see it. In Native lore, the horned toad is believed to be Grandfather, or the Creator in animal form and is thought to bring good luck.

White Spider Animal Message
Had a dream lastnight about a large white spider, much like a wolf spider but a little bigger and it was white. It bit me on my arm and made a huge hole the size of a quarter. I didn’t feel pain but it was interesting to look at. Then today as I was getting into my truck, I saw near the door handle a small white spider.
White apparently means Perfection, Hope, faith, purity, perfection, confidence, enlightenment.
White alone can also indicate a proud, rigid, judgmental immaturity.
The spider is a remarkable figure of feminine energy and spirit animal kingdom. Spiders are characterized by the skilled weaving of intricate webs and patience in awaiting their prey. By affinity with the spider spirit animal, you may have qualities of high receptivity and creativity.

Praying Mantis Animal Medicine

Found this little guy today while watering the garden.
The mantis comes to us when we need peace, quiet and calm in our lives. Usually the mantis makes an appearance when we’ve flooded our lives with so much business, activity, or chaos that we can no longer hear the still small voice within us because of the external distractions we’ve created.
After observing this creature for any length of time you can see why the symbolism of the praying mantis is associated with stillness and patience. The mantis takes it time and lives its life at its own silent pace.
So when Mantis comes to you remember to take a time out.
Expect Miracles,
