Ground
Animal Medicine
I did not plan for this to happen, but it happened. I’ve decided to have a totem animal that will be one of our guides throughout this journey together over the next sixteen weeks. I’ll have eight messages from this animal that I’ll distill and share each week from its spirit medicine.
I really want to preface this by saying: when we allow ourselves to be guided, when we let our path unfold — when we take the step before we see the step — that is when the magic happens. As you’ve seen, the logo or emblem I created for this course, Goddess Status, is the golden wings of ISIS.
Not many people know what bird those wings come from. And maybe you don’t even know who ISIS is — we will absolutely get to her. But those wings! I’ve always felt drawn to them, and I chose them for this course long before the rest of this information came through. On a trip with my beloved, this totem appeared everywhere — undeniably in our faces.
And then I learned that this animal is what’s represented by the wings of ISIS. It’s also an animal that is deeply misunderstood. So without further ado, our totem for the next eight weeks (and maybe the rest of your life) is the VULTURE.
Not many people realize that the vulture is a huge symbol of the Goddess and of the Queens. Vulture medicine is incredibly powerful and has so many messages for us. Each module, I’ll share a different piece of vulture medicine.
Most people assume the vulture is all about death. But in truth, the messages it carries are deeply beautiful. People often look up to see a vulture soaring and think, “That is so beautiful.” Then, once they realize it’s a vulture, they shudder. But let me tell you: get rid of that reaction. Vultures are beautiful and hold potent medicine — especially for us women rising as Goddesses during this time.
Hollywood has painted vultures as creepy creatures waiting for death so they can swoop in and feast. We see them hunched over graves or circling above something dying. That is such a tiny, distorted piece of who they are. The truth of their medicine is so much richer — and we’ll get into why that’s so awesome as I share more each week.
Today, I want to focus on GROUND.
This connects to the vulture being a scavenger. For the code of GROUND and for embodying Goddess Status, you must be resourceful.
When we look to the vulture and its medicine, the lesson is: do not be wasteful. Vultures literally clean up nature. They serve a powerful role in ecosystems by eating what could otherwise spread dangerous microbes and bacteria. Their stomach acids are so strong they can digest toxins from decomposition and transmute them into energy.
That’s why vulture medicine for GROUND is about resourcefulness and not wasting what you have. In this module, we’re talking about money — budgeting, spending for your business, taxes, bank accounts. These are the foundations. And often, as women, we don’t track our money carefully.
Think of something as simple as a $10 subscription you no longer use but never cancel. That’s waste. This week, we’ll pick through everything, cut what doesn’t serve, and get real. We’ll set up a budget for your business, compare it with your personal one, and maybe even bring your partner into the conversation. Have the uncomfortable money talk. Be real — like the vulture.
Because it doesn’t get more real than eating death.
Now, in today’s world — especially with the online coaching industry — we often throw money at things we don’t use. Buying courses we don’t take. Paying inflated prices for mentors who don’t actually deliver. We’ll dive into this more in another module. But for now, remember: vultures take what is dying or dead, recycle it, and turn it into energy. They are resourceful. They are not wasteful.
If you want to embody Goddess Status, you must also be resourceful.
Yes, vultures may not look “cute” on the ground — but when they soar, they are breathtaking. As you move through this empowerment module, some parts may not feel pretty. But once you’ve faced the uncomfortable truths and done the work, you’ll be able to step back, take the bird’s-eye view, and see the beauty of how everything fits together.
That is vulture medicine.
I’m excited for this totem to guide us over the next eight weeks. As you invite the vulture into your awareness, notice what shows up. Synchronicities will appear just from invoking this frequency. And as I continue sharing their wisdom, you’ll see even more.
Thank you for being here and for welcoming the vulture. This totem has powerful medicine for us as we rise into Goddess Status.
