The medicine wheel

Vijali, Medicine Wheel

My medicine wheel has four or six directions, it includes:
the direction
an animal or force
a meaning or life pattern,
an element,
and a theme
Mine are:

West,

the bear
the unconscious
water,
healing

 
 

this is the direction of the medicine bear, the traditional animal of healing, it is where the imagery comes from, it is the depths of our visionary space, it is the place of power, the controller of the wheel
 
 

North,

the turtle,
grounding,
earth,
embeddedness
this is the direction of grounding in your job, family, home, children, the earth as your mother, here you are in her body, and in your life at once, it is home and your deep home

East,

the owl, eagle, or hawk,
change,
air,
spiritual flight
this is the direction of change in our lives, cancer, the diagnosis, our new life to come, and flying into her heart, into the visionary space to see the images

South,

the lion,
love and passion,
fire,
meaningfulness
this is the direction of why we wake up in the morning, falling in love, passion for anything we want to do, meaningfulness,

Up ,

the eagle or the angel,
spiritual ascendancy,
goddess realms,
peace
this is the direction of going to she who gardens us from above to rest in peace and be totally loved

Down,

the sea goddess,
