Companion Animal Cards

By Anne Marie Bennett

Little Brown Bird- Companion Animals Suit

Scbird This is the very first Animal Totem card that I made for my SoulCollage® deck.  It goes with my heart chakra energy. And this is the interpretation I did at that time:

Who are you? I am just a simple ordinary bird sitting on my nest of eggs.  I am the one who nurtures and gives birth.  I am the one who creates new life.  I am the one who sets that life free.  I am the one who shelters the young, who teaches them how to fly. I am the one who flies. What do you want from me? I need to spend more time flying and less time here on the nest. Where to you want to fly to? Nowhere in particular.  Just flying. Flying is the whole point. Since creating this card, it has shown up several times in my daily SoulCollage® readings.  Here is some more wisdom gleaned from this card as the months have gone by:

January 2006– What I’m saying to you today is this: there is much inside you waiting to be born, and there is much inside you that is waiting to fly and soar and be free.  Let the lesson now be discerning when to sit on the eggs and when to fly free. There is tension in this, but when there is balance, there is much joy. March 2006– I am the one whose eggs are ready to hatch.  I am the one who is birthing new ideas and projects and books. I am the one who is choosing now to sit on the nest while these ideas and projects and books incubate and ready themselves to hatch.

Leopard- Companion Animals Suit

Scleopard_2  This is the animal guide I envisioned when meditating on my 2nd chakra.  I found these images not too long after.  I love that there is both a baby and adult leopard on this card.

Who are you? I am the one who is the leopard, the baby leopard and the grownup leopard.  I am the one who is curious and playful.  I am the one who is strong and fearless and also taken care of.  I am the one who has spots and who wanders through the forest.  I am the one who is protected and nurtured and cared for.  I am the one who is wild and who seeks wild things.  I am the one who climbs trees and makes things happen.  I am the one who watches carefully for both happy surprises and predators. What do you have to give me? I give you wild fun and playful energy. I give you sleek feline grace.  I give you the power to know yourself.  I give you green wonder and eyes that see everything. What do you want from me? I want you to be more playful in your sexual expression.  I want you to explore your wild side.  I want you to MOVE your body! You move more gracefully than you think.
