Fox is a great companion and teacher. It never gives up or complains, but adapts to its surroundings and circumstances and turns them into an advantage by using its creative and resourceful way of thinking. Fox is a playful trickster, cunning and able to react immediately in tricky situations thus escaping even the direst circumstances with ease.
​

​It is able to see through any illusion or deception, even the ones, it created itself. After becoming aware of them, fox quickly changes its point of view and is able to do things in a completely different – and sometimes - unexpected way and uses its quick wit and energy to get out of any unfavorable situation. 

Fox is a shapeshifter, a jack-of-all-trades, but a master-of-none. It is able to become whoever it wants to be or needs to be to blend right into its surroundings and camouflage itself perfectly. It is not attached to its identity or any label put on it, for it knows, that once you let go of who you thought you were, you are free to become whoever you want to be and leave all limitations behind. 

​Fox is a walker of the in-between, a being of dusk and dawn. It understands the unspoken and is able to view any situation with complete detachment. It teaches you to see a situation for what it is and not as you wish to see it and to take a step back and become still, until you are able to see a way out. 

The butterfly is an incredible teacher and companion. It flies on silent wings, never disturbing the peace, always being in the moment, for the butterfly has shed its past and left it behind. 
​

It does not speak with its mouth, for it its one with all of creation and sees no need in manifesting any riches for itself. Instead, it sings its beautiful song from the heart, greeting all of creation with unconditional love, sharing its wealth.
 
The butterfly has known hardship and learned to survive on sheer will. As a caterpillar the butterfly has its skeleton on the outside, using it as protection, shielding itself.

​While growing it rapidly sheds the old skeleton time after time, expanding until all its learning is done and its heart tells it to let go of the past completely. 

The caterpillar changes into something entirely new, a chrysalis, and the fire within, kindled by trust in its path, melts the ice away that had covered its heart. It is reborn as a butterfly, transformed completely. 
 
It carries its healing wisdom to all the flowers and herbs, even the ones, that are hardest to reach, the ones not visited by bees, now showing its true colors and healing wisdom openly.
 
The butterfly is the faithful companion of the raven, the secret keeper. It will never betray a secret, but keep it, for it sings with its heart and not its tongue. Whenever the raven needs nourishment and a trusted friend, the butterfly will guide it to safety and shelter. 

Seahorse medicine is incredibly strong. Seahorses have three hearts beating simultaneously, so if one heart gets tired, the others keep the seahorse strong until it is fully recovered. They show us, that we have many resources within us and that when the heart that has been wounded in the past, is tired, the one being in the here and now and the one dreaming our highest good into being, our future, will be able to keep us whole until the wounded one is mended.  

​Seahorses are poor swimmers, yet they are able to rest even in the roughest of seas with their tails wound around a stationary object. They swim along their path, one stroke after the other, resting and securing themselves when needed and continue on their path, when they have regained their balance, showing us how to navigate the stormiest of emotions and situations.

Their eyes move independently, they can see what lies behind them in the past, their present state and even glimpse into the future and see what lies in front of them at the same time. All while being able to anchor themselves to any object, while being completely at peace within themselves, finding their balance again if needed. 
 
Seahorse knows that it is vulnerable, but it knows its vulnerabilities are not weaknesses. It acknowledges them and teaches us that recognizing our vulnerabilities is a way to empower and protect us and others. Instead of lamenting over the fact, that it is a poor swimmer and thus not able to speed along its path, it uses the time needed to anchor itself to reflect and rebalance, thus gaining insights and wisdom, learning.
