This morning, the angels of nature presented a beautiful gift at sunrise. A large flock of two dozen or more white ibis, suddenly appeared in the sky, flying east in "V" formation. It happened so fast there was no time for a picture, but this image gives a touch of the glory of that special moment.
The golden sunlight, reflecting off their wide opened wings, spread a touch of wonder to a celestial blue sky.
Mostly the ibis that cross our path are grounded, pecking for food in the pasture or at the lake. So this rare V-flight formation was a beautiful symbol of what is to come. A "V" formation signals new opportunities on the horizon, and their directional arrow < was pointing east, toward the sunrise. The finale of their exhibition was a long stream of white wings, flying in single file, following the "V" sign, like an airplane ad banner across the blue sky. Victory!
What joy to catch a glimpse of their awesome flight as we looked out the window watching them soar above the treetops. A message, perhaps, to keep our own thoughts on higher consciousness to stay on course, and head for the horizon of a "new day".
In her book, Angel Messages, Claire Nahmad, writes about the ibis:
"If the ibis draws close to you, a spiritual call is sounding your name. You have been chosen to enter into a new and elevated spiritual understanding."
A wonderful, inspirational message for us all at this hour. Thank you, Angels.
Love and peace,
