Wolf didn’t need to be rescued. She was as fearless as she was wild. She didn’t want to be completed. She already knew of the magic in her soul. She did, however, long to be loved. She deserved to be loved as fiercely as she was capable of. #SheWolf #InternationalWolfDay

“Sometimes,” thought Owl,“taking one more breath is all there is, and it’s enough. The moon rests in the sky as she waits for night. Trees stand still, ready to be the shade. And we just have to take one breath, then another, then another after that.” You are enough. Just breathe

“Do you think there is a time and a place to show your emotions?”Asked Wolf’s friend. “Yes,” replied Wolf, “I believe there is. The best time and place is exactly when you feel them, especially when you want to show them, and definitely when someone tells you not to.” #WolfWisdom

Curlew's hauntingly beautiful cry can be heard through any seascape as the wind takes it to where it belongs. When he shares his melancholy call with the world, it's not to cause sadness. He knows all songs exist to be heard, and his cry is a song too. The song of his soul.

Hare sat perfectly still in the darkness. At first, the silence was overwhelming and the stillness almost unbearable. She was ready to flee. The longer she waited, however, the more she could hear the soft whisper of the Universe. So Hare remained still, listening to the night.

As she flew, Crow found it hard to see the way sometimes. She couldn’t help but worry, but she always reminded herself she’d find her way eventually. She knew she just had to go as far as she could see, then, when she got there, she’d be able to see further.

Fox sometimes felt like she knew nothing about anything. The more she learnt about the world, the more she realised she'd never really solve things, fix things or understand things fully. She'd probably never even understand herself. She could accept things though. That would do.

Hare planted herself among the spring bloom, warmed by the light of the Flower Moon. As the leaves on the trees slept, and the night became dark, the only sound was her breath weaving a rhythm with her heart. #FlowerMoon #HareMoon #FullMoon #MayMoon

When life was chaotic, or overwhelming, Heron knew how to find the peace he needed to get him through the day. He’d learnt that stillness of the body created stillness of the mind. It took him a life time of practice, but it was worth it. Plus, he was amazing at musical statues.

Fox paused and took a moment to ground herself. As she waited patiently, her senses grew sharp. She felt the gentle breeze, inhaled the sweet fragrances and took in the beauty around her. The more still she became, the more the magic moved her.

On the night of the #Equinox, she guides us to Spring. Magic, myth,& new beginnings. Dancing through darkness till daylight breaks through, Embracing the changes as Earth starts anew. Moon's faithful friend, Our guardian and guide. #Hare; Messenger of rebirth,growth and new life.

Bear had been hibernating for a while now. He peeked out as he was rolling in the shade, and saw others engaging with the world, having a fab time. He wished he were one of them. Then he remembered he wouldn't like that at all. He was a bear. He wasn't made that way. That was ok.

Tonight, Hare would look up to her #SnowMoon contemplating all the new beginnings that were hers for the taking. By morning, this potential would reveal itself, but for now, there was nothing to do but wait; gaze upon the Moon and wait for the magic to start. #MoonGazingHare

When stag was having a tough day he tried to rise above it all; above the heather, above the little (or sometimes rather big) things that were getting him down. He could breathe out his righteous anger, shake off his sadness or simply stand with a different view of his troubles.

Badger had been optimistic about a new year and all the things he would achieve. January had come and he wasn't feeling at all motivated. He was upset with himself for not being better. Then he remembered he was doing his best. There was no rush. He went for a walk and smiled.

Fox closed her eyes, felt the cold on her face She smiled at the darkness, lost in winter's brace Solstice had come, the promise of more light Nature's cycle was done by end of this night She wished all souls love with the return of the sun and #SolsticeBlessings for everyone

Chilly little Robin in the garden, coming to say hello.

At this time of year, there was such a big pressure to be sociable. Honestly, Robin liked being alone sometimes. He wasn’t being rude, he didn’t want coaxing out, and there was no need to worry about him. He really just fancied a bit of ‘me time’ amongst the hustle and bustle.

Otter loved nothing more than getting tangled up in kelp. He'd play for hours, sliding around in greens and yellows, squishing about in reds. It gave him such joy. 'That's it. You don't need more.' he thought, 'Find what gives you joy and thoroughly enjoy it whenever you can.'

Donkey was a Monday kinda guy. He felt so motivated by waking up to a new week, and the promise of things to come. He told anyone who'd listen, and was surprised they didn't always share his optimism...he couldn't be sure, but he thought they were actually a little annoyed by it.

The snow sometimes made it hard for Fox to see which direction to go in. She never worried though. If she felt lost, she stood still, watched snowflakes fall, and took a second to enjoy whatever was right in front of her. She couldn’t be lost if she was in the moment. #MindfulFox
