Perhaps you are getting as tired as I am of the metaphor of the worm turning into a butterfly as an explanation of our birthing of the New Reality. Well, it seems that nature has given us an even more powerful teacher to show us ourselves as we undertake this incredible transformation. It is the eagle. After learning more about the eagle's life, I could feel deeply the beauty of his/her journey as it reflects my own. Allow me to share. Perhaps you will find yourself here as I did.
• The eagle has the longest life span of any bird and can live up to 70 years or so. To reach that age he must make a hard decision.
• At about age 40 eagle's talons loss their ability to grab prey for food. The long sharp beak becomes bent and its feather almost too heavy to fly. There are only two options at this point...die or go through a 150 day painful (That is an assumption that this is painful) process of transformation and rebirth.
• If eagle decides to continue, he returns to his nest in the mountains where he sits for the next five months or so, first knocking his beak against the rocks until it becomes weak enough to pluck out.
• Now Eagle must wait for his new, sharp beak to grow in and then pluck out his useless old talons.
• When new, healthy talons grow back, Eagle then plucks off his old, heavy feathers.
• Finally after fives months, new feathers have grown in and eagle takes his famous flight of rebirth, living another 30.
First, may I say, I prefer Eagles journey because he is conscious of every step of his transformation unlike the caterpillar that falls asleep and awakens as a butterfly. Eagle chooses his destiny and must actively participate to create it. As I read about this incredible journey, I became aware how very much like our journeys his is on an emotional level. The changes occurring on our planet and within our lives pushes us to, at some point, pause and go within because we can no longer function so easily. We must decide consciously if we will stay asleep and die or undertake to awaken and change. (Kind of like choosing the red pill or the blue pill in the Matrix movie). If we choose to awaken and change, we realize that the old ways we have practiced no longer work. Many are useless to us so we begin the long and sometimes painful process of dissembling our old ways creating new, healthy beliefs and patterns to replace them. After a time, we emerge and our souls beckon us to take our famous flight of rebirth into a new world offering us amazing new opportunities and possibilities.
We are still ourselves but we fly freely having gone through the changes necessary to lighten and our loads and see the world through new eyes, creating new ways as we go. Thank you eagle. I am inspired by you.

  • Thanks. Sorry again it wasn't factual but one of my favorite lines from "The Pilgrim" is...Try being fictional for a change. It is actually more expanding!"." Guess that's how I see that this perhaps not accurate portrayal Gotta love it all. Appreciate your asking the time to respond.

  • Hmmmm. Well you are creating your own reality so enjoy it as you choose. I won't be joining you there but then again I am sure that will be a relief. Blessings

  • Beautiful reflection. Thank you. It is so wonderful to me that my idle pondering had brought out such beautiful and individual responses.

  • Great answer! I loved the poem as well. I hope others read this post. There's no judgement here at all. I chose the Eagle because I am a very curious person and enjoy using my emotions and mind to create. For everything there is a season. Maybe next week I will again be the butterfly. Thank you for connecting.

  • That is a good point. It is a shedding. For those who have written that this info is not correct...I cannot comment. I am not an eagle or an expert. What is truth for me is the feeling of the trans formative ability of nature to show us ourselves. I was moved by the experience not the details. So I acquiesce to any inaccuracies in the information but not in the amazing energy of Eagles ability to transform and his beauty to show us how to fly!

see all

  • lol sorry but eagles dont do that. its not possible

  • Awesome, thank you!

  • yup, beautiful, but it's not factual...but i loved the hope of it!!! always love your vids!

  • I'm often torn between conscious action & letting things unfold without my interference... i hold this poem close to my heart: With no-mind, blossoms invite the butterfly; With no-mind, the butterfly visits the blossoms. When the flower blooms, the butterfly comes; When the butterfly comes, the flower blooms. I do not “know” others, Others do not “know” me. Not-knowing each other we naturally follow the Way. ~Ryokan i prefer the butterfly because it does not harm nature the eagle is a predator
  • 1 peter 4: 12Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 13But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. 14I

  • This eagle story is an urban myth going around the Internet. Sounds familiarly like the phoenix rebirth! I would also like to say that we do not choose, it is Gods will to give who he chooses the gift of sight. He puts those whom he loves through fiery trials, that we be refined like gold
