Bald Eagle during winter
What a gift I got today. A huge eagle was sitting in a tree by the lake this morning. We looked at each other for a very long time before he took off to fish and hunt.
Later, as I was on a business call, he came back as if touching base, just to say hi. He did not linger but he did a fly over and took off again, in the same direction. I’m wondering if he has found a prolific fishing hole!
Eagles are so magnificent. They can fly very high, see very far and hear very well. I’m wondering what his message was for me today. No one else here saw him so he was definitely speaking his message to me. Was it to keep watch on what is going on around me? Was it to take the higher perspective? Was it to soar with the eagles?
I did look up the messages Eagles are likely to be sending in two books. One book said “You are being given potent gifts of clarity and vision to use for the good of all people. You can bring forth light out of the darkness.” It also said “Are you talking with your relations and praying to Great Spirit or are you placing other things ahead of them?” (Animal Energies by Dancing Otter publishers)
Ted Andrews in his book, Animal Speak, says that the keynotes to Eagle totems are “illumination of Spirit, Healing, and Creation.” He adds that Eagle teaches “a balance of being of the Earth but not in it.” And, “For those with eagle totems, new vision will open. This vision will be far reaching to the past, within the present and to the future as well.” As a reader of the Akashic Records this resonates with me deeply and I am wondering if the eagle came to me today to tell me that my own inner and outer vision is deepening and that my connection to the Records is shifting to another level.
I think this more because a recent astrological reading from Lynda Hill revealed this to be happening as well. So I am very touched today at how Spirit/the Universe/God speaks to us through nature confirming and supporting messages from all corners of our world. I feel so blessed today and just wanted to share my awe at the grace we each have at our disposal when our eyes and hearts are open to receive.
Where do you see this happening in your own life? I would love to hear!
Hey Darling! This is really awesome! You and I talked about eagle also in my recent Akashic records reading, so we’re both on that tree with the eagle!
Soon after our reading I ‘happened’ across Shirley McLaine’s latest book. I enjoyed it so much that I ended up reading 5 others of hers, including – and especially – The Camino and Sage-ing while Age-ing. I sure got an eagle’s wider & higher perspective over past and present and so many blanks filled in for me. Thanks for the reminder of that, and to keep an eagle’s perspective. It’s so easy to get caught up with the small stuff!
I feel the eagle did come for you, especially since it came back twice. I look forward to your discovering the meanings of this energy entering your life, though I feel you’re on the right track with your perceptions about it.
Love, Monica
Hi Diantha! I’m flyin in here on the wings of the eagle! 🙂 Aren’t they fabulous birds? I spent days at the lake house just watching them soaring and fishing in my lake. I see so many each day I would be hard-pressed to put any messages or meanings to their appearance. Hope you do more posts – I’ve missed you!

HI Suzen! So GREAT to hear from you! And what a blessing that you have so many eagles to watch! We do not have scads of them at one place any where near here as far as I know, and seeing one much less having one land on your property is a rare, rare occurrence. The photo I posted was from the first time we saw one in our tree during a massive blizzard one winter. Once the snow slowed down he moved on but I’ve wanted one to return for quite a while and it finally happened. My next bird to welcome will be the snowy owl. I saw one once outside my kitchen window when I was so sick it didn’t register until it was over. I hope to see that again too when I am more present! Thanks for visiting! I am glad to be back as well! xo
Hi Monica!
Shirley MacLaine is one who helped me get on this path back in the 70’s when everyone scoffed at her….and me! Well, the path of the seeker is not easy and the seeker is often mocked and ridiculed. Finally a lot of what we have held to be true is being more and more acknowledged and accepted. This is a good thing!
I did not remember the eagle in your reading which will not surprise you since I don’t remember much from readings so thanks for pointing that out! And thank you for your support and confirmation! xo
