Let's get
steamy... Firey .. humid, sexy, risqué, spicy, and all things FIRE
Element.
Fire
represents transformative energy in its most power forms! This
episode was all about transition and signs from nature all relating
to transition.
Fire
is passion, romance, sexual energy intense emotions like anger,
inspiration and vitality. (Straight from Wahe Guru's Healer
Training 2019 workbook).
This
episode I take you through the connection with the fire element and
my trip to Austin Texas.
Austin, TX.
The
official motto for Austin Texas is the “Live Music Capital of the
World!"
Austin Texas was a beautiful experience. A very large
part of my healer training and fire initiation
experience.
On
the first day we explored South Congress and enjoyed live music at
the end of the night while taking in the sights, sounds and the
warm summer breeze.
I
found the I love you so much mural, 143!

I
also found several other I love you's use sprinkled throughout
town.
I did
not want to stop dancing. It had been a while since I had spent an
entire night just letting my hair down, feeling the music and
dancing. It felt like I wanted to say welcome back Nataly, welcome
back!
We
floated to San Marcos River which was both fun and relaxing that
same day we went to the bat festival.
Things got emotional unexpectedly.
I
meant to speak about this on the podcast but I guess it wasn’t
meant to be spoken about and totally glanced over this part of my
show notes. While at this festival I started to become very
anxious. I felt I was visited from a ghost from my
past.
It
remains a part of the healing process.
I got
very angry for allowed the past to come up (fire
emotion).
I
think this anxiety and pain was supposed to pop up on my trip
because the trip was a lot about new beginnings and to me I think I
need to be reminded of the old, to be able to bring in the new. I
was very upset at myself at the old memories that very temporarily
popped up on this trip.
I was
also proud because I was not consumed by it, and it was a feeling
in passing and for the first time I paused. I set a boundary. I
walked away from the crowds. I felt the emotion in the moment. I
didn't mask it in any way. I took a deep breath. I happened to be
with a good friend who understood what I was going. I felt the
feelings and then I felt the next morning I I had released
them.
Bats!
The
city of Austin has 1.5 million bats migrating each year, and they
have built their home under the Congress Avenue Bridge. It happens
to be the largest urban colony of bats in North
America.
It’s
majestic watching them spiral into the summer sky like a world.
It’s definitely an unusual tourist attraction I didn't know
about.
This
is so in line with my summer and the theme of my year.
Doing
some research on that spirit animal here is what has come
up:
Is
says it’s time to prepare for major life changes.
Bats
can help you if you’re fearful of
transition. Bats are misunderstood and they’re associated with the
underworld because they only come out at night. They are actually
sweet and cuddly and a lesson to not judge a book by its
cover.
In
China bats represent good fortune and longevity. We'll take
it!
This
segues to my final day where I checked out the countryside and took
a tour of the LBJ ranch and saw President Lyndon B. Johnson's
boyhood home. Theme of the day... the Owl!
Owl
We
made a stop at the locals farmers market. In Johnson City. I was
walking and checking out the booths where I did a total double
take. This is where I met Phoenix. YES Phoenix. Could it be more
symbolic of rebirth? She was majestic check out the video <---!
I thought she was fake.
She
is part of an educational nonprofit teaching young children about
conservation and care. they also rehab birds. The nonprofit is
called "Flying For Earth!"
The
owl symbolism is also connected to this transition
theme.
The
symbolic meaning for the owl is also intuition and the ability to
see what others do not see, the capacity to see beyond deceit and
masks.
Remember 143 means I love you, | tell your own heart I
love you.
