Animal Spirit - Understanding Signs and Messages

Do you pay attention to the animals that show up in your dreams, meditations or even your waking world? Curious to what messages they might have for you - or how to unfold the meaning and message in the moment? Ever wonder if you have your own personal animal spirit guide? Want to know how to incorporate their messages and energy into this crazy journey we call life. What about nature totems (those guides or beings who aren’t animals in the science world)? Along with a great discussion, class will include a guided meditation to see what animal spirit or nature totem might be in your midst and also what message they have for you. 2 hour class. Possible guest instructor with Angie that night! No Class Limit (Minimum 6 to hold the class)
