Today was very much a snake day for me. Snakes are far from my favorite animals so a year ago when I found out one of my animal totems was a snake and I began having many encounters, in my waking life, in visions during meditation and even in my dreams, I was not exactly thrilled. To find this was a powerful animal totem to have comforted me very little I must admit.

Today’s performers were the black snake with a cameo appearance from the mockingbird. You will see below why the mockingbird has earned a special place in my heart.
