I want to share a beautiful surprise at dawn's early light today. As I stepped onto the porch with my cup of birdseed for the feeders, I froze. A graceful deer was looking at me. She stood by the Marian garden on the other side of the fence, facing me. Willowy beige reeds shrouded her tawny body so much so that I thought she was a lost brown spotted calf. But the deer stood still, waiting and watching me until I got it. Across the distance, our eyes met in a loving understanding, a heart-felt moment beyond time and space.
Deer are seldom seen around here anymore. It's a thrill when they do. I always take it for an omen to be gently guided on a new adventure. So this was a special moment of divine timing.
Then ever so slowly she disappeared walking toward the forest. I was thankful for the angel blessing of peace and grace. It had happened so naturally in the rhythm of daily life.
Deer brings a wholeness energy from the light. A reminder to rely on the guidance within and follow your inner impulses. Not only will you keep your strength, but you will no longer be controlled by outer circumstances. Watch the gifts of God's love manifest in your life. Angels are here to help you stay connected to the divine and live life more fully moment to moment. The best is yet to be.
Love and peace,
Rae Karen
P.S. No time for a photo, but here's a deer from years ago.
