Bison and Buffalo Spirit Animal Meaning and Symbolism

-

To most people, Bison and Buffalo may resemble each other in many aspects, but they are indeed two different species that originate from different geographical locations.

Bison has large humps at the shoulders, bigger head, a beard, and a thick coat that gets shed from spring to early summer. The two kinds of bison are the American bison and the European bison.

Buffalo has a larger body and greater horns. The two forms of buffalo are water buffalo from Asia (similar to ox), and Cape buffalo from Africa.

When it comes to spiritual meaning and symbolism of a spirit animal, however, Bison and Buffalo are used interchangeably:

  • symbol of good strength, health, and stamina
  • agility
  • calm personality
  • devotion to family
  • protective
  • unity
  • abundance and manifestation
  • freedom

To the Lakota and other native American tribes, white American buffalo or bison represents the most sacred living being on this planet.

How will Mars in retrograde affect the aspects of your life that are out of alignment?

-
On September 9, 2020, Mars went retrograde. While on its path, it will also form squares with Pluto, Saturn, and Jupiter. Squares a.k.a. 90° angles are tense, sharp, and pointed. That means certain aspects of our lives are bound to surface - and this is a perfect opportunity to deal with them. And since this planetary effect will stay with us for the rest of 2020, it makes sense to take a closer look - and take note of possible ways to deal with it.  Neptune in Pisces (its home sign) supports clinging to the old ways and avoidance of facing reality - on personal and collective levels. However, with Saturn in Capricorn (its home sign), along with Pluto and Jupiter - we'll have to deal with any unfinished business - personally and collectively. All the karmic seeds we've been cultivating for a while are now in full bloom. It's no longer possible for us to ignore them. Consequently, now's the time to do something about the things we don't like. Unfortunately, sticki...

Link Between Spiritual Growth and Depression

-
There's only one reason why an enlightened/awaken (or any) person gets depressed. And the cause is thinking about something (times and times again) that your Higher Self/Soul does not agree with. Your thought/idea/belief is out of alignment with divine truth - and you're feeling it (experiencing depression). Your point of view is limiting and the disharmony you're feeling is oppressing. Blocking away our negative thoughts, pushing them away, or ignoring them - does not work. It only deepens the feeling of hopelessness/depression. To turn things around - you need to decide that you're done feeling like s__t. Set the intention. It's time for you to realize that prolonged feeling-bad (being depressed) actually makes you addicted to certain chemicals and hormones that occur inside of our physical body in that particular emotional state. In short, you become addicted to depression. An addiction is a habit that can be stopped.  The first step in stopping addiction-to-depr...
