Universe gave me a message, I think!

[Karri Morgan]

Not too sure where to place this, haven`t been here in a few months... But!

You see, I have been out of the loop, faith-crisis, depression, just flat out emptied. Didn`t feel that I was going where I needed to go, as far as the spiritual goes, didn`t feel I could really lean on it when the depression set in.

But I`ve been healing (with the help), so I`ve gotten better.

Thing is, as I have gotten better, the need to regain what I had (I did search for a path, exploring for almost two years before I stumbled) has arisen.

I was walking home a few days ago, and as the thought about getting back in touch with the spiritual me, perhaps do a prayer to the universe, passed through my head, suddenly a deer ran across the road right in front of me.

I could think of it as a coincidence, but I dont really want to.

I want to believe it was a message.
Have no idea what it meant, but I`ll take it as a positive one.
the Universe still knows I am out here. And that feels pretty good!

That is a great feeling! :)

I think that's fantastic. Whether it's coincidence or synchronicity, run with it.

Have you thought of meditating further on it ; as a sort of springboard to delve deeper?

Yeah, I am currently drawing the whole thing.
Really would like to see if it means anything more.. I don`t know. Just see if there`s something more to it. Deer`s have never been my favourite animal, so, I think it`s special that it would appear like that, almost like a symbol or a message.
Why a deer? Sure, ain`t that many elephants around here, but still.

How cool! :)

Something like that happened to me in the past, but with a crow feather...

if you're interested, I actually posted a few links to deer symbolism here: Moose god? (http://mysticwicks.com/showthread.php?t=216214)
Though it'd probably be best to explore possible meanings yourself.

ETA: After seen your post. Definitely look into deer totems and symbolism and use that to figure out what it might mean to you, if it matches or not. I know deer is sacred to Artemis and Diana. Artemis had 5 golden horned deer (http://www.theoi.com/Ther/ElaphoiKhrysokeroi.html) and has the epithets Elaphebolus (Deer Shooting) and Elapheaea (Of the Deer). She's not the only deity or mythology associated with them though.

Those clue x 4's are always fun! Good luck and I hope you find what you are looking for and it takes you where you want to go!

Thanks, Anthony :)
I really do hope so...
Have more faith now, thank I`ve had in some time, so..

Agaliha:

Nice! Thanks.. :)
I`ll look into that, great tip, and then perhaps meditate a bit on it. Haven`t done that in a while either, but still.

I must add though, it was a female deer, a rather small one. Looked like a yound one year old, although deer isn`t my expertice-area (my father was a hunter, back in the days that I actually knew him).
