The Hummingbird greets every day
By spreading joy along the way.
It hums and flits from here to there
Just glad to live and be aware
Of how our hearts will take to wing
If we but do our own true thing.

Spirit Catcher's Story

The Hummingbird is considered the messenger of joy by the Anishnabe of North America. Their name comes from the vibrations of their wings. We all know how good it feels to whistle while you work but actually humming works better. It creates an internal massage which restores health and balance. Follow the example of the Hummingbird and when you find joy, sing it out loud! One is always filled with a sense of wonder at these tiniest of all birds.

Hummingbirds have long bills and tongues which allow them to extract the sweet nectar from the flowers. But while serving their own needs, they are also doing pollination service for the plants. That epitomizes the connection between cause and effect. Thereby prompting us humans to examine the need to balance work with vision in order to attain our goals.

The Chi

The energy of this Spirit Catcher is sure to spark joy and beauty in the garden. It sanctions a love of life and pleasure in the realm of Nature. Since this little creature has to fly wherever it goes, it reminds us that if we truly enjoy what we are doing, our hearts will take wing and our spirits will soar.
