Echidna under a rainbow
I had the rare privilege of meeting up with an Echidna today, and I felt most honored. She shuffled around me for a long time and she really made my day! 🙂 ❤
How beautiful to receive an appearance from such an unusual messenger and medicine-bringer. 🙂 Thank you for the beauty that you share, Bridget. Hope all is well where you are.

You are most welcome Jamie, and yes, a beautiful messenger indeed :). I felt most blessed as she graced my company for about an hour. She dug around, shuffled, climbed over branches, tunneled her way through bushes, ate ants… Echidna’s wisdom teaches us how to be solitary, to appreciate our uniqueness, the ability to tunnel under life blocks, single-mindedness, digging deeper to find solutions, being grounded, sifting through old thought patterns for nourishment, ability to feel at home wherever we are, longevity, maintaining boundaries, Motherly Love… I am enjoying Spring here, and am having much time for solitude- in between family commitments- which my soul has been yearning and is finally receiving, so am content. And, you Jamie, how are you?
