Today as I was waling to my car there were several ducks surrounding my car and I immediately began to think how great it is to be free to roam where you want and duck off. In my community we have a large lake where the ducks can find respite from the heat and simply do what ducks do. I unlocked the car and started the engine and waited for the ducks to safely move out of the way. As I watched the ducks I noticed that several waited for the one lagging behind to catch up. Once I knew they were out of harms way from me backing out of my space I backed out of the space and started to think about the innate compassion these animals have and how they look out for one another. As I drove away I began to wonder what the ducks symbolized in the spiritual realm and I found out that ducks are symbolic of emotions, as they are associated with the water element. They help in reminding one to take care of their emotional self, to nurture, and be easy on the spirit. They represent being able to handle your emotions with grace and strength. I also found out that these ducks teach one to trust their instincts about others and to align yourself with those that have a kind spirit, fostering healthy relationships. I then began to reflect on all the times the duck has appeared as an important element in my life. When I was a student at Hofstra University from 1983- 1987 we had one of our characters as a Duck representing the ducks that were know to gather around Long Island. I was selected to dress as The Hofstra Duck on several occasions for events ranging from visiting children at the hospital to sporting events. As I reflect back on that time I now began to grasp how this all relates to my spiritual journey.
It all started to make sense as ducks are connected to feminine energies, the astral plane
and emotions through their connection with water. Ducks remind us to drink deeply from the waters of life. Find comfort in your element and with those of like mind and spirit. Ducks teach you how to maneuver through the waters of life with grace and comfort. Psychologist and therapists often have Ducks as a totem, assisting them to help others move through emotional tangles. As I reflected on the many times that I donned The Hofstra Duck Costume and the joy it brought to others while giving me a sense of purpose I began to further understand the spiritual awakening process and the messages and their meanings that are being sent to me through the ducks.
On of the football teams I follow is the Oregon Ducks. I started following them years ago because I liked there fast paced way of playing offense. As I look back on why I choose to follow this team I realized it was because of the fast paced action of their team and the innovation of their head coach and how the team seemed to play with a passion and purpose. Though The Oregon Ducks haven’t won a National Title yet they have competed and shown fans how determination and hard work can help you to make a mind, body, soul connection. They have taught me to detach from the outcome and to always do your best.
I remember watching all 3 Mighty Ducks Movies and realizing the spiritual messages that are contained in each. One of my favorite scenes is when the coach says DUCKS fly together. As I analyzed the spiritual meaning of these movies I saw love, forgiveness, personal growth, professional growth, and spiritual growth.
