Grouse: Sacred Spiral
Grouse once flocked in abundance throughout North America, but now, even
on the plains, where these birds were so plentiful, there is an absence of
them. Many Plains Indian tribes dance the Grouse Dance to honor these birds. The
movement of the dance follows a spiral, which is the ancient symbol of birth and
rebirth, the ribbed tunnel of eternal return.
The Sacred Spiral is also one of the oldest know symbols for personal power.
When you think of Grouse medicine, visualize a whirlpool or even a tornado, for
the Sacred Spiral will take you to the Center. The spiral is a metaphor for personal
vision and enlightenment. Many initiates on Vision Quests paint spirals on their
bodies and believe that the Great Mystery will favor them with visions
of power and purpose because of this symbol.
The whirling dervishes of certain Sufi orders are masters of the spiral dance
and can transcend to higher states of awareness through the repetition of this sacred
movement. It is said that dervishes can travel to the center of the spiral and
return with any magical power they choose. In the dervish state, on enters the
Great Silence and has direct communication with the Creator. By spinning
clockwise or counter-clockwise, the dervish draws or repulses specific
energies. Sufi dancing is a system which connects one with the Divine Source
through ritual treatment of motion.
If you have Grouse Medicine, undertake a meditation on the various qualities
of movement within your world. Begin by visualizing the sun as one member of a huge
group of stars swirling in the massive pinwheel shape of the Milky Way. Then draw
yourself out of this pinwheel of light and into the spiralling of your own DNA's
double helix, an arrangement similar to a rope ladder coiled like a corkscrew. Analyze
the way you move through your world. How do you picture yourself in the act of
locomotion? What kind of reaction do you create with the energy you send into the
universe? What words would you use to describe the way you move through both
the material and spiritual worlds? In the final analysis, is your movement compatible
with your greatest desires and goals?
Many spiritual disciplines ask that you cease all external movement in order
to recognize the inner life. Grouse medicine, however, is an invitation to the
dance. Grouse celebrates the Divine Source through its sacred spiral dance, and
offers this dance to you as a gift. You can spend a lifetime learning Grouse's lesson
on how to harmonize your dance with Mother Earth's cycles, and how to offer the
dance as a creation of selfless beauty.
Contrary
Drawing the Grouse medicine card in the reverse position signals a
dissipation of energy and lack of control and discipline. It is symbolic of a lost
connection to the Source, and signifies a lack of clear intent behind an
outpouring of energy. You may feel like you are in a tailspin or going down the
drain. Confront confusion either in yourself or in others who may be in the picture.
Examine the way your energy may be causing friction, sparks, or a convolution of
a situation that needs clarification. Work towards harnessing your energy and
directing it towards clearly defined goals. Such is the nature of the Sacred
Grouse Dance.
In using this sacred dance as a tool to right contrary Grouse, you may also
find that it is a tool to center or ground you. In grounding, you are once
again connecting to Mother Earth and balancing out the spinning in your head. If
you have become so involved with an idea or problem that you are no longer seeing
it clearly, you may feel dizzy or lacking in concentration. This is a sign that
you have entered the thoughtuniverse and are not connected to physical reality.
You need grounding if this occurs. Dancing or walking will put you back in
tough with Earth and your body. Grouse may then teach you how to notice the
energy flows that put you in harmony and balance with body, mind, and spirit.
Overview
Find your rhythm. Honor the synchronicity. Spiral into your potential.
