Pay attention to the signs. Badger. #alignment

 
 

The image of the badger has been playing in my mind the past few weeks. 

I really have no idea why.  

But in the spirit of trusting the signs, I play along.

Badger symbolism: 

(SOURCE)

The badger symbolizes aggressiveness, reliance, self-expression, holding ones own, link to the underworld and the magic and mystery of creation, link to plant and animal spirits, fearlessness, boldness, braveness…

The power of the badger lies in is its aggressiveness and the readiness to fight for what it wants. On the flip side, the badger is also about healing – they are the keeper of Earth’s healing herbs. Badger will persevere in finding a cure. People with this power animal are often healers and have the guts to use unconventional methods…

They are fearless and fierce and if driven into a corner badgers will go at it tooth and nail and fight to the death! Very unsociable badgers are, so those with this medicine may find it hard relating to others, sneering at authority and holding their own in any given situation. One of their biggest tests would be being able to express themselves clearly.

Being amazing diggers, badgers are able to get below ground with no difficulty, linking them to the underworld. This is where the mysteries and magic of life and creation is held. Also, this is symbolic of a powerful link to animal and plant spirits, and can show badger people how to get in balance and alignment with above and below ground.  – Ina Woolcot

Strangely, this all relates to my current direction these days. 

The need to isolate to create,

the new-found confidence to say no, 

to say yes, 

to align myself to focus

to create more impactful work

to do less

so I can do more,

to ride the wave,

to trust,

to dig deep and protect my cave,

to embrace the magic of life and death. 

To aggressively embrace my new sense of worthiness. 

From The Power Path:

When there is a possibility for a new alignment there is tremendous potential for having things be very different in a positive way. This is your opportunity to dream bigger and to move beyond the limitations of what you always thought possible. This New Alignment will affect finances, relationships, creativity, the physical body, mental health, and success in projects, work, study and play.

 

Mr. Badger- Gruff and solitary, who “simply hates society”, Badger embodies the “wise hermit” figure.  A friend of Toad’s late father, he is uncompromising with the disappointing Toad yet remains optimistic his good qualities will prevail.  He lives in a vast underground sett, part of which incorporates the remains of a buried Roman settlement.  A brave and a skilled fighter, Badger helped clear the Wild Wooders from Toad Hall with his large cudgel.
