Blue Tongue Wisdom

I see you.

Blue tongue catching dappled rays by my breakfast table staring into me with his orange eyes. Strong medicine is this.

In Australian Aboriginal mythology, blue tongue lizard is the trickster and a powerful sorcerer, conjuror of fire magic initiated in the Cave of the Rainbow Snake. His stillness belies his journey into dreaming, open eyed travel into the realm of possibility.

Carve out time to daydream and watch where - and to whom - your mind meanders. Today I am not calling her back from her sweetest dreams. We are wise to remember  -  thank you Mr Tolkien  -  that not all those who wander are lost.
