Question: “ Blessings Ma-Ryah, Would you please help me? One of my animal guides is the crow. Four times this week, when I have been alone, a live crow has been by me. It keeps crowing until I go indoors. For example, I was eating breakfast in a garden by my job. The crow was on the light post, and it kept crowing until I left. What is my animal guide trying to tell me? Thank you.” Linda, Linwood, NJ

Answer: “ God’s Blessings! This is Ma-Ryah from the higher realms of God. We are pleased to see you in this way. You have been spending many hours working within the physical world. We are pleased to see you have been taking time for self also in the midst of all the hours of work. 

We understand your meaning of animal guide and so will answer from the perception of that guide since indeed all animals are part of your world and all offer an opportunity to receive guidance and wisdom. In the particular identification of the crow first it is important to study the crow. What are it’s habits? How does it interact with other birds? Understand how it nourishes it’s own self and others around and near it. Most often you will find other birds not choosing to be near the crow for too long. If you were to place human perception upon the other birds you would perhaps say the other birds are not happy with the noise of the crow, nor it’s antics. Of the bird kingdom we would say the crow is often seen as a bit of a clown also. It would appear the crow enjoys all attention it is able to call to it’s self, whether positive or negative, it matters not. It is just thrilled to receive any attention and know it has been seen and heard.

In isolation of the crow within your own life lately we would say it is not so much you are being told to literally go inside. Instead see it as being guided to go inside your self and know what is occurring in your life in this moment of time. In the beginning of our answer we acknowledged you are giving some time to your self and that is beneficial. Following the advice of the crow remember to also give self the gift of meditation, reflection and knowing where you find your self in this moment of time. 

The showing up of the very vocal crow is also able to be telling you to be aware of how you react to the words of others, especially when it is the words of gossip. Many people around you right now enjoy talking for the sake of talking and you have a difficult time with this. Judgment has entered into your self lately and frustration for what you are hearing. Remember to not judge what others are creating. It is not vital that every human you create with are seeing life and interaction in the same way you are. Their experience does not have to mirror yours in order to validate the moment. See instead what are the results of how they are choosing to create. Do you find this any where within your own self? If not, then bless the ones who are creating so you may see how you would experience the consequences, positive and negative, if you chose to spend many moments speaking words of gossip. Allow in a gentle way the understanding of how you would receive the world if you chose to create in the same way. Own what is yours to own and let go what is not yours to carry and create. It does not diminish, impact or change who you choose to be seen as unless you so empower it to do this and allow it to be so. 

Perhaps give self the gift of time in meditation and send energy of absolute Love to those you create with in your world who choose to create differently than you do. Send them blessings and guidance upon their journey with respect and honor for another side of life being able to be seen. Bless them as they create in a way you do not choose to create within in order for you to reap the wisdom for self, and apply to self in order to continue to grow and become more conscious of this. Ultimately see, does this diminish you or enhance you? And therefore do you respect the creation of others? If you choose to not participate in gossip and judgment with those who you create with, it is not necessary to enter frustration or judgment...merely walk away and do not add your voice to the words being spoken. Remember the lesson of the other birds in how they react to the crow. They do not always choose to remain near and listen to the sounds the crow makes. So too, you shall indeed find human beings who create with you do not always desire to hear the words you speak for it is received as judgment. Be conscious and be aware each moment and ask Self, is this a time for me to speak or is this a time to walk away and not judge the path another is on? If you walk away bless the journey of those you turn from in the moment and send honor, respect, balance and love to them so they so use it as they so choose.

That is all. God’s Blessings!” Ma-Ryah
