Dolphin: The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit
We are almost to the end of our Water element animals from the Wild Unknown Animal Spirit deck, with only two left to go. The Dolphin follows the Swan (a creature that helps us tap into our watery and infinite creative powers), and builds on these energies. Once we have learned how to start channeling […]
Otter: The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit
Next in the series of moving through each animal in the The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit deck, now in the water element, we come to the most joyous and playful animal- the Otter. The Otter is a universally beloved animal, even by some people who may not entirely be animal lovers. As we will delve […]
Turtle: The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit
Next up in the series of going through each animal card in the Wild Unknown Animal Spirit deck is the Turtle. The previous card was the Oyster, with the invitation to share your deepest inner treasures and to alchemize the pain in life into something beautiful. You can go back, all the way to the […]
Starfish: The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit
The Starfish is next in our continuation of The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit deck. The previous Water element cards that have been discussed are Crocodile, Stingray, and Fish.

For those who have been keeping track, the Raccoon (although lacking a numerological association) is in the fifth spot of rising consciousness for this element. The […]
The Earthworm: The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit Deck
In this second post on the The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit deck, and in following the order of the guidebook, we are working with the Animal Spirit of the Earthworm. Don’t be so quick to potentially write this card off as lesser than the Bear, our first card and introduction into the deck as a […]
The Bear: The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit deck
Sometimes, it’s not enough to do a deck review. Sometimes, a deck and its messages are so beautiful, you need to break it down piece by piece, or in this case, card by card. Don’t get me wrong, I will be writing a review of this deck, going into details like card size and stock. […]
