Hawk and Eagle Teaching

The Teachings from Hawk and Eagle, let your mind soar.

Opening up to all your Relations includes learning the importance of observing and listening to Lessons offered by your Brothers and Sisters of the Animal World. Therein lies powerful medicine that may guide you on your Life-journey. One such Lesson comes from considering the difference between Hawk and Eagle.

When hunting, Hawk sees Mouse.... and dives directly for it.
When hunting, Eagle sees the whole pattern.... and dives for the movemant, learning only later that it is Mouse.

Observing the difference between Hawk and Eagle Teaches you the difference between Specifics and Wholeness.
All things are connected, and all things are constantly moving and changing. Wholeness shows you the motion of all things, and Specifics give you a point of reference from which to view all things by reminding you of relation or relationship between one thing and another.
Through Eagle, you are reminded of the great expance of the Universe and its' circular motion of the interconnectedness and interdependence, remembering always to keep the larger picture in view as you move through Life.
Through Hawk, you are reminded of the need to remember where you are in relation to everything else, focusing neither completely on yourself, nor on everything else, but rather, recognizing the relationship that exists and Honoring that relationship at all times.
To beable to draw upon the Power of your Winged Brothers and Sisters is to draw upon the Power of perspective in your relationship to all things. With Wisdom, you seek to understand your place in the Universe and what it is that you have to share. You seek to walk in step with the Universe and its eternal rhythms, Balance. You seek to feel your relationship with Creation, and to contribute to the Greater Circle in whatever way you can. And as you develop your own INNER VISION, you are able to soar upon the wings of both, SPECIFICS and WHOLENESS, using your capacity for perspective to deepen clarity of Thought and Action in your Life.
To soar upon the Wings of both Hawk and Eagle, THAT IS TRUE PRESENCE OF MIND.
Let you Heart, Mind and Spirit Soar!
