Odoriferousness

Skunk. Just the name brings up so many feelings for me...
Last night my "baby" Brutus (Doberman) had a face to face chat with a very black (almost no stripe) skunk. To say the least, it was quite traumatic, for both of us...

After I was done lathering my baby with ketchup (I had no tomoto juice) I asked why did this happen??? Because when the natural world speaks I KNOW I need to pay attention!

I went right to Animal Speak by Ted Andrews. He had many things to say about skunk but the sentence that jumped out at me was "when skunk shows up you can expect to experience stronger sexuual responses and a greater ability to attract people to you". After the feeling of truth filled me up I took some time and asked mySelf what was the truth Skunk was sharing with me...

Skunk is about scent. Scent is about phermones. To me it speaks of sensuality, memory; sending out my hopes, dreams and desires into the Universe and then Allowing that energy to meet like energy; trusting that my reputation will speak for itself, that living with honor and integrity (although sometimes not as easy as other times since I am human) will manifest my desires better than I could even imagine.

Timing for this message is perfect (of course!) because in April (Easter week) i will be changing the name of my business from Fall Creek Healing Center (indicating my previous location) to SACRED WATERS MASSAGE AND ENERGY MEDICINE! My fabulous graphic designer will have all changes to the website and marketing material updated and ready for unveiling. I chose Easter week because I feel in my heart that this new name is a reflection of new life; A time of great change for me and my business, and I believe skunk is validating this truth to me.

Soooo instead of getting upset with my dog and Mr. Skunk for the inconvenience of this odoriferous experience, I say THANK YOU; I'm listening; and BRING IT ON!!
