My Mayan Animal Guides

When I joined psychic-medium Kim Moore’s first Psychic and Personal Development class, I met some incredibly mystical women. Rakissa, aka the Mystical Mathematician, was one.

As a favor, Rakissa revealed my Mayan Animal Guides.

A few years ago, Rakissa, contacted me and revealed my three Mayan animal guides.

Before I continue, here’s some background.

What are the Mayan animal guides?

Generally, these animals existed in the Mayan world (Mesoamerica) when Mayan culture was recorded. And the spiritual leaders discerned the assigned spirit guides based on the moment of your birth.

Much more information about the Mayan culture is available at Maya Archeologist, based in the UK.

Rakissa revealed that I actually have two Mayan Animal Spirit Guides, with a third that was more about how I turned my back on them. Or perhaps it was a long growth period.

I was born with Manik – Deer, as my guide.

Then, I entered a time where I mimicked Kaban – Earth. She used Turtle to illustrate what that meant.

My final guide is Men – Eagle.

Eagle is my current and final Mayan Animal Spirit Guide (2025).

I hope you’ve enjoyed learning about my Mayan animal spirit guides. Please let me know what your Mayan animal spirit guide.

Start Asking for Help

I’ve found if I start asking for help, it arrives. Then I listen to the new ways of thinking and acting accompanying this different way of being.

You can also feel joy again. Trust that it is possible if you will take the first step toward healing your grief wounds by asking for help.

Your Emotional State

Depending upon where you are in your grief journey, your emotional state may be highly charged or feel like a deep valley. If you start asking for help, the emotional highs and lows will begin to even out.

I don’t mean you will be in a zombie state. Instead, you will feel your emotions with more detachment, curiosity, and compassion. Hope will begin to replace despair.

A Simple Daily Prayer

Each day I repeat a simple prayer when I rise and again as I prepare for sleep. You may want to try this also.

Take a deep, cleansing breath and slowly exhale when you wake up.

Place your left hand over your heart and repeat this prayer.

I call on the guidance that loves me unconditionally. I ask for your protection, help, intervention, and assistance in all ways that will benefit me and support my spiritual growth. Thank you.

Repeat the same deep cleansing breath with a slow exhale when preparing for sleep at the end of your day.

Place your left hand over your heart and repeat the same prayer.

* This prayer is found in Alana Fairchild’s Mother Mary Oracle deck.

How Will My Life Change?

your life can blossomAs you ask for help with an open heart, subtle changes will occur. Perhaps you are the only person who notices these changes. Or a friend might ask if you’ve changed your hairstyle.

Trust that your unfolding will blossom perfectly for you.

It takes great courage to make changes. Embrace the courage that lies deep within you.

Curiosity Fuels Our Inner Joy

Curiosity fuels our inner joy by offering different viewpoints than our first default observation. Using the photo above, what comes to mind? What do you feel in your body? Where do you feel something in your body?

How Curiosity Changed My Perspective

The first night I settled into my North Carolina home, the image above was just like the photo. Yet I didn’t see it. Rather I saw a hideous green security light streaming into my bedroom that ruined my night sky view. The light had been there before, but it wasn’t as high or as bright. My default observation was anger and resentment. As the days went by, my curiosity grew. I stopped by the house and met my neighbors, a lovely family of four who are renting while buying their own lot to build on. The father is a police officer, his marked vehicle a fixture during his off hours.

I never asked about the security light. Afterward, it didn’t seem important. In fact, that night was the first time I noticed the heart on my ceiling as I was lying in bed, recalling the day. It was extra bright due to the full moon, which I captured just before. The blue orb I’m so familiar with now has a green hue. If you are familiar with the chakras, green is associated with the heart chakra. Perfect.

Tips for Cultivating Curiosity

The next time your feel sad, angry or upset about something outside yourself, I invite you to try these actions.

    • Excuse yourself to a comfortable, safe location
    • Sit, stand or lie down
    • Close your eyes or lower your gaze
    • Take one or two deep breaths
    • Ask yourself, “What am I missing in this situation?”
    • Gently open your eyes fully
    • Slowly move your head and shoulders back and forth
    • Notice the objects in your view, stopping for anything especially pleasing
    • Be open to your intuition
    • Practice patience with yourself, then others

Curiosity fuels our inner joy when we invite it in.
