According to Ted Andrews (Animal-Speak ISBN 0-87542-028-1) the goldfinch represents our connection to Mother Earth and the nature spirits. Their presence indicates an awakening to that which is normally hidden from view and that we are about to embark on experiences that deepen our perceptions. To remember that nature is speaking to us constantly and that we will grow much when we listen.

Quite appropriate right now to remember that whatever rocks our world, anchoring ourselves to nature still keeps us in our truth. That is a certainty. If we build around the life-generating force in nature, we will be self-sustained in the flow of Mother Earth’s love for all.

We dream it. We create it. There is a harmony to it.

There is a story being written in the sky. A beautiful, long lasting one.

Keep your eyes open for your own signs,

God and the Universe are speaking directly with you.
