In times of old, The Furies protected Mother Right. If a mother (or any woman) was harmed, The Furies swooped down and took their vengeance. They were one of the last vestiges of a world that existed before the patriarchy. When we feel righteous anger, it is The Furies who are calling out to us to make what is wrong right again.

My Spirit Animal 

I've decided my spirit animal, or my totem, is a Bipolar Bear.

I was telling Mario about the Spirit bear in Canada. (It's white and it's in danger.) He asked, "Is it a polar bear?" since it was white, and one of us said, "Maybe it's a bipolar bear." Thus, my perfect totem. We tried to come up with other similar "spirit" animals. The New Jersey Cow. Tupperware Wolf. Dorian Greyhound. Black and Bluejay. B. B. Kingfisher. On the Roadrunner. If we think of enough, I could create a card set. A shortened tarot deck. Or Spirit Animals for the Emotionally Challenged. Or for the Naturally Demented. Or sumthin.

Mario's getting minor surgery this Thursday for a growth on his arm. Trying not to be a psycho about it. Once we get these doctor's and dentist's visits out of the way, I hope to feel like writing more. Been focused on that and Linda.

I dreamed I was walking with two wolves last night. Woman Who Walks With the Wolves. Not bad.

May You Walk in Beauty! 0 comments
