Great Blue Heron - Animal Totem

Meanings and Messages: Ability to Stand Alone, Uniqueness, Independence, Call to Balance, Self-Esteem, Boundaries, Dignity, Exploration, Peace, Fluidity.

GREAT BLUE HERON is a majestic bird who teaches us the wisdom of standing still, waiting patiently, while what we need comes to us. Allow the dignity of Great Heron to inspire you: practice walking with assurance and deliberation, taking your time and refusing to be hurried.

For the two-legged with Blue Heron as a Totem, there will be a desire to establish themselves as a unique and independent Being, often making these souls the revolutionaries that disrupt the status quo of society in order to elicit change and evolution. Although this is a trait with many challenges, when operating from its Highest Vibration, Blue Heron souls teach the rest of us the value and importance of each individual contribution to the Whole.

My new totem for spring and probably for the year.

Great! She's a powerful ally and a great teacher. ;)

What a beautiful bird Janno - and what an equally beautiful and apt sentiment, particularly for a musician. Music itself is a call to balance, an exploration of self and the subtle vibrations of the world around us - a journey through wider rainbow coloured realms. Economy, poetry and poise. Balance. Yes!

Thanks for giving it a listen and glad you enjoyed it! :)

These birds are so graceful, but awkward as fuck when you get close to them.

The job of swallowing the eel started. Man that was something to watch i wished i had a camera with me but i had not so you have to use your imagination. He used is whole long neck stretching it and brought the snakelike in. For me it was both magical and informing for the road ahead of me was and is difficult but it can be done as was shown to me by the great Heron.

I myself saw one that had caught an eel now how the hell do you think you can swallow an eel was what i thought. But he did cause he is patient and has fluidity and so is flexible. He had thrown the eel on the pavement and stood next to it while it was twisting around on the ground and he just picked at it hard and stood and watched and picked again took it in it's great beak and when it twisted to much thrown the eel back and picked again until finally it wasn't twisting that much so then

Beautifull music very catching and i had to cry for i know myself about the challenges when operating on higher vibration. Let's say I just started i am a beginner in finding back the balance. He or she is surely great teacher. Just look at how he stands and you know what lies ahead of things. When standing in the water you have to dig inside to find answers when standing along the river is search and patiently waiting for a catch you will have to look around sharp for opportunity is in town

It's great to see others enjoying the Heron! Henry, our local great blue heron has been coming to our backyard for 7 years now! It all started when he visited our pond and ate all the fish! He comes to our backdoor most mornings for a snack of fish, hangs out with the chickens, squirrels, birds and a visiting duck! He always checks the pond, just in case! We have named him Henry! He even has a book written about him and his own web site! The Most Unusual Pet Ever, Henry our Great Blue Heron

The blue heron was my totem animal for this year. I had a hard year at school with bullies and I was completely ostracized by my peers. I refused to break and be what they wanted me to be, a loser. But now I left and I'm happy. Funny thing is sometimes on my way to school I would see a blue heron wading in the river or flying overhead. (And that river is very polluted. He's the only heron I've ever seen in it.)

Blue Heron is beautiful and reminds us to reflect on the actions of others that have upset us, to determine their validity and keep our balance. Always looking at himself in the water's reflection, delving deep within to sort out the essence of self. Thank you for sharing this wonderful video!! And your definition of his medicine.

The Heron has been my guide all of my life. Mine is most definitely a male. He even appeared to me when I was a toddler. I couldn't imagine any visionary or psychedelic experience without him. We have an almost symbiotic relationship, our thoughts are as one. I feel he represents all the best qualities of my character.
