Spirit Animal–Squid on Moving

image

Sometimes, I am simply surprised at the wonderful creatures that show up for my meditations and who want to share some thoughts.   I do not know very much about Squid.  So, I looked up some information.

“Squid have differentiated from their ancestral molluscs such that the body plan has been condensed antero-posteriorly and extended dorso-ventrally. What before may have been the foot of the ancestor is modified into a complex set of tentacles and highly developed sense organs, including advanced eyes similar to those of vertebrates.  …. The majority are no more than 60 centimetres (24 in) long, although the giant squid may reach 13 metres (43 ft). – Wikipedia”

Squid came in because it wanted to share some thoughts on moving.  Here are her ideas.

  • There is not any one way that is the best way to move forward.  We squids move by kicking our tentacles. Others move by their feet propelling them forward.
  • In the medium of water, we can move up and down, and hover, much like the hummingbird.  This type of movement is like a dance.  It is graceful.  Movement should be graceful.
  • We move with the currents of the ocean.  This is about being in the flow of life.
  • Some believe that we are sacred animals because we move our tentacles by putting them together as hands clasped in prayer.  All beings are sacred for we are all connected.
  • Some believe that ocean dwellers have no souls; they believe that we are monsters – and that the larger we get, the more monstrous that we are.  Perhaps it is the way that we move that causes this fear.  When something moves in a strange way, we tend to fear it.

Squid’s final words were about allowing all beings to move through their lives with ease.
