DAILY ANIMAL SPIRIT
Woodpecker spirit | Trust the process.
Wake up! Woodpecker is tired of trying to get your attention, and will peck and peck and peck until you hear the message. You have received the answer to a major question time and again, but refuse to act on it. It’s okay to ignore a solution—but be forewarned that woodpecker will keep making racket until you make some movement forward!
Woodpeckers are some of the smartest and most fascinating creatures in the world. As the name suggests, the woodpeckers are specifically known for their constant pecking against the bark of the tree. They peck into the trees in search of food and to create their nesting space.
Woodpeckers peck at wood as they look for insects, grubs, and larvae inside them. The rhythmic knocking on the wood indicates the knocking of new opportunities. Woodpecker spirit guides you to channel your focus and energy to identify new possibilities and use your strength and capabilities to accomplish your goal. Woodpecker symbolizes creativity, wisdom, communication, determination, protection, perseverance, strength, progress, kindness, and happiness.
Native Americans associate the woodpecker as the symbol of the essence of life. They symbolize the bird’s rapid drumming sound with Nature’s heartbeat. Woodpecker as spirit shows us the constant quest for discovery. It helps you to be in complete awareness of your surroundings. It guides you to navigate through any difficult situation of life and hammer your way forward with faith and determination.
DAILY ORACLE CARD
ACE OF WANDS
Wands symbolize creativity, and the Ace of Wands is the boldest among the cards in the suit. It is not the kind of creativity that you learn from school or as a hobby. It is bravely finding your own voice, it creates a place where you can develop your own vision. In other words, it is associated with willpower, and creativity in the cosmic sense.
When you draw the Ace of Wands, it is an indicator that you should just go for it. Take the chance and pursue an idea that you have in mind. Take the first steps to start the creative project. The Ace of Wands calls out to you to follow your instincts. If you think that the project that you’ve been dreaming of is a good idea, and then just go ahead and do it.
The Ace of Wands calls out to you to follow your instincts. If you think that the project that you’ve been dreaming of is a good idea, and then just go ahead and do it.
The Ace of Wands can also perhaps mean that you are waiting for a sign to start a project. To draw this card pushes you to act now, instead of brooding over research and more planning. Take small steps today, and then continue to grow your ideas over time. Action is what helps you grow, and build momentum. Don’t remain in the abstract.
Another Ace of Wands meaning is the occurrence of a breakthrough moment in your life. It is a time when you are motivated and inspired about a passion project or idea. You are excited about the opportunities that are opening up for you in the near future.

Your feeling of safety is now related to order and clarity, even in emotions. You may have the need to organize everything chaotic and disorganized. Try being more tolerant and accept imperfections of life. It is better to trust life and let it run its own way, not everything must be according to our expectations.
The name of the March 2023 full moon is the Full Worm Moon. This full moon name is inspired by the time of the year when the earthworms start to reappear as the ground thaws at the end of the winter. The birds start to come back as spring approaches, with the Spring Equinox that happens each year towards the end of March.
Other nicknames for the March Full Moon include Sap Moon, Crow Moon, Chaste Moon, Sugar Moon, and Lenten Moon.
