Raven’s Wisdom

When a raven shows up I pay attention.

Crows and ravens have been touching down on my fence and back lawn of late. While I name them separately, perhaps they are one and the same. Maybe you know on this, if you do, do tell. 

I’m growing curious about them and I’m following my nose because they’re showing up in paintings too. 

Familiar and yet mysterious with their shiny feathers, unlike the mousy brown of the sparrow, these ones stand out in contrast. Quite unapologetically. 

When my father crossed over the veil I remember that ravens suddenly started to show up. Often when I would be remembering him or wondering “Hmmm, what would dad say to this or that?”. Then, out of the side of my eye, there would be a glistening of gorgeous midnight blue-grey-black. As if we had planned it beforehand, a raven would appear in my path.

Recently, I took some time to sit still and sense into these beautiful beings and to find out what buried treasures they are pointing to. Here’s a few that came through as I sat in the stillness to what the crow and raven want to say:

• I am a messenger of mystery. My dark feathers serve to remind you not all is meant to be seen now. It’s vital to sit still in silence periodically to learn how to listen deep to your innate intuitive Knowing.

• I am a guide through your transformations and upgrades. I guard the unseen realms which you deeply feel and experience energetically. I also guide you through portals of change to release unhelpful energies, many of which are not yours initially, but your lineage’s densitiy. Your sensitivity allows you to access and release these patterns through your creative momentum.

• I am here to show you that you can trust yourself and know that you can step into your full strength as a sensing creator by embracing the unknown. You are ready to create out of the dark void. Like new soil, it’s fertile ground. You can safely hatch and launch your new projects, ideas and desires from this place. 

• It’s important you know that this is a very high vibrational offering which your natural state of creative flow brings to the world now. Especially at a moment in time with so much mimicry, trickery and fear induced control. You are ready for this new way of acknowledging what you are doing here, beyond the surface. You are an integral part of the mystery of this whole life circle. If you need support, just ask, you will see/sense me and know you are never alone.

These words channeled through so strong and clear. They not only deepened my respect for these black birds, but deepened my understanding of why we are here together creating as we do. I now understood as well why in the paintings when ravens show up for me, portals of change to step into surface too.

I wonder, what transformations are calling you to step through for an upgrade in your journey? Do black birds show up for you as messengers too? If so, I’d love to know the messages they have for you, please share with us.
