Blue Heron

_Blue Heron…Thank you, Sacred Waterbird,
for sending reflections to me;
The mirrors of the quest for life,
The words that live inside of me.

Show me how relationships work,
With my path woven within the whole,
The lessons of kinship with all life,
Reflecting my spirit’s eternal goal. Jamie Sams_

The medicine of Blue Heron is self-reflection, and asks if you are willing to dive into the watery depths of your own feelings and discover the role of your spiritual essence? Heron is now calling you to delve deeper, to know yourself, and to trust your path. Like the Phoenix, who rises from its own ashes, Heron emerges from the unseen worlds of spirit into a new balanced sense-of-self in order to ebrace its potential again and again.
The magnificence of your human spirit lies waiting for the joy of discovery, if you are courageous enough to follow the Waterbird throughout the journey. Heron reminds you that every traveler on life’s journey is a messenger, and that every destination is the beginning of a new life cycle on the Medicine Wheel.

  • Larry Davis

    Larry Davis

    The feathers of this bird abound
    so I will leave them on the ground
    To show that he has visited me
    and the love that I have found.
    .
    For when he flies away to mate
    and rears his young with pride
    My friends will say how good it is
    to watch him far and wide.
    .
    Thank God for nature.

    It humbles me each time that Spirit calls my name. But I am not surprised that He calls through one who knows how to listen and pay attention. Thank you, Tammy, for your beautiful journey with me as my sister, my guide and my friend. I know the bonds between us will always be strong. Thank you Blue Heron for your gentle yet loud message.
