It is the time of year for Goose to show up for many of us.  We will frequently see small groups in a V formation only after we have heard them, announcing their presence across the sky with deep, resonant tones.  As they pass, thier conversations seem nonchalant, relaxed....no anxiety at all about the long and arduous trip they are about to take.  Goose knows when it is time to go home.  With no map, no compass, and no calendar they find their way every year when the time is right.  Goose always announces the start of the holiday season, with their bright and cheerful parade across the chilly autumn sky. 

Seeing Goose frequently, or in close proximity or dreams can be a signal that it is time to go home.  Gather with your flock, and talk about the passing years and the ones to come.  Going home sometimes means other kinds of journeys which can be more stressful than traveling.  Holidays always seem to be a time of great joy mixed with the bittersweet realization that emotions are deep running rivers resistant to change.  However, avoiding these family dynamics can sometimes cheat us out of the opportunity to learn our own lore and find the ties that go beyond blood.  Goose energy is warm, supportive, maternal , comfortable and strong.  It is the ideal Animal Spirit to accompany you on your journey home.
