DAILY ANIMAL SPIRIT
Heron spirit | Seek inner balance.
Is your life in a state of balance? If not, long-legged Heron has flown in today to help you. Because Heron is a water bird, he is most often associated with emotions. He stands motionless, almost in a trance, his body mirrored in the
water below. Take a few moments today to be like Heron—be quiet, go within, and discover the answer to your questions.
The symbolism and significance of the heron trigger you to deeply value silence, patience, and profound meditation. Do you find yourself being extremely sociable to the point of exhaustion? Are you feeling trapped and
lonely? Heron spirit may be able to help you improve! Heron demonstrates how to manage your social life while still avoiding extreme seclusion. Explore heron symbolism and meaning to see how this animal spirit may help you feel more alive, energized, and balanced.
The heron flies alone in nature. Except during breeding season, the bird dislikes being in groups. As a result, the heron is associated with isolation. The heron’s inherent propensity to hunt is another natural trait. This bird can
attain food very fast. While the actual capture is almost immediate, the wait before it happens can be long and very quiet. Therefore, heron teaches the virtue of patience, or the ability to observe and ponder before acting.
The water element is associated with the heron, which urges us to flow with the forces around us. We don’t need to fight nature; instead, we should work with it – go smoothly with it. The heron is undeniably beautiful and elegant.
It’s difficult not to be inspired by such a magnificent, breathtaking creature. Heron spirit brings several messages with it. Independence is the key trait of this deity. You’re either too introverted or overly outgoing. We still need
other people in our lives, in order to function normally. We don’t have to blend in with the throng to the point of losing our individuality. Finally, heron gives you advice on a different business possibility. This spirit is
patient and tenacious. You can always say no to waiting and actually thrive towards your objectives.
Heron spirit dislikes outsiders intruding in their personal lives. Their circles are small, with at least one mate in each. While they appear comfortable in a group, they tend to withdraw after a social event. You learn a little bit of this and a little bit of that throughout your life. You may find yourself enjoying diverse social roles. Heron spirit enjoys a lot of freedom because of the heron’s traits. You don’t expect others to comprehend your way of life. You’re never going to be traditional. This way of living seems unstable and disordered from the outside. You, on the other hand, can view,
alter, and complete a pattern, perhaps while doing two other things at the same time! Even better, you have a special aptitude for seizing opportunities that others overlook. Heron spirit symbolizes:
Observation
Solitude
Honor
Patience
DAILY ORACLE CARD
X. 10 of WANDS
A man is shown carrying a heavy burden of wood, in the form of ten bundled wands, approaching a town which is not too far. This image on the ten of wands indicates a person who has already struggled in life and has succeeded, and he is now carrying the harvests to his final destination. Although he is not near the destination, it shows that he has finished the hardest part of life struggle and he just needs a place to relax and revel in his success.
This card shows that you have already completed the circle of struggle. After spending too many resources and lots of energy looking for success, you have finally overcome the obstacles. The sweat off your brow was worth it – your efforts have finally been rewarded. You may find yourself living in a world of abundance where poverty and suffering have no chance to intervene.
Although it sounds marvelous and satisfying, the card depicts a lot of responsibilities on your side. You are now the sole problem solver in your circle of family and friends which could even propel you into another world of challenges. At this point, you are also flooded with responsibilities to maintain your success. The businesses that you have started are flourishing and keeping you on your toes. The main problem is that these issues could overwhelm you if you lose control, which requires you to make sure that you know how to prioritize and solve the relevant ones.
Although it sounds marvelous and satisfying, the card depicts a lot of responsibilities on your side.
In the real world, this card expresses how people try to burden themselves with responsibilities after they attain initial success. It is like graduating from college, getting a job and then starting to make it in the real world. More challenges keep coming, you may find yourself looking after you parents, starting a family and at the same time look to others, which may make you feel as though you not yet successful. It becomes a burden because at some point you find out nothing is enough to accomplish all these duties. The general lesson of the card is that people should be moderate, prioritize and understand that they cannot solve everything, some things must be let go, given to others, the burden shared.

1/21/2023 NEW MOON IN CAPRICORN: Your relationship with your emotions might be more complicated because Moon in Aquarius has a strong need for emotional freedom. However, when you are in a group of people, it is easier for you to understand your feelings and free yourself from negative emotions such as fear, anger, and jealousy.
1/28/2023 FIRST QUARTER IN TAURUS: Your safety depends on the need for stability, which is not easy to satisfy now. You have to learn to accept change as part of your life.

When you accept yourself for who you are, it will become easier for you to find peace and tranquility in the outside world.
