FLY
--RECYCLING--

      Fly is the layer of eggs in the dead, spreader of maggots, the pest to any outing. But Fly is also the reminder to dispose of your garbage and waste, or "it'll draw flies!"
      Mother Earth can only do so much to clean herself. She uses animals to help.
      Fly reminds you that this is not your world to abuse as you please.
      If Fly gets your attention, you have done, or failed to do, something which attracted His attention. Somewhere along the way, you have failed to clean up a mess you have made. This mess could be anything - someone else's feelings, the work you were assigned, the dishes in the sink, the other car's door you dinged in the parking lot.

FOX
--INFORMATION COLLECTION AND CAMOUFLAGE--

      Fox is the energy of the spy. Fox melts into the surroundings and disappears, the better to observe His surroundings without being observed. Fox even changes His colors to match the season. Fox is intelligent and quick-minded.
      Fox is also the protector of the family and travelers away from home.
      Fox reminds you that stillness is sometimes the best avenue to a goal. You seldom learn, when you are making all the noise. Fox may be telling you there is something occurring around you that needs to be watched for, or you might be unpleasantly surprised. Fox is probably telling you to watch, as much as he is telling you to listen. Often "actions speak louder than words"... Though Fox could also be telling you to keep silent about something which is no one else's business.
      Fox tends, through its silent observing and aptitude for camouflage, to become His surroundings. This unity with Nature gives Fox insight into the nature of things, making Fox aware of conditions and allowing Him to "see" what will happen next.
      Fox may be warning that someone is watching you. Have you become so conspicuous, obnoxious, flamboyant that you are causing resentment in those around you? Perhaps it is time to blend into the woodwork for awhile.
      Or Fox may be telling you that you need to take a better look at yourself. Do you camouflage yourself behind excuses for what you see as your lack of success? Perhaps there is someone inside or nearby who will find the truth in you... This can be useful or harmful information, depending on your use of it. Fox may be telling you it is time to break free from apathy and get a life.

FROG
--CLEANSING--

      Frog sings rain into the sky, bringing the water that cleanses the Earth. In the same way, Frog tells us to honor our tears, as they are the cleansers of our spirit. Frog is associated with all rites which use water.
      Frog visit tells you it is time you did some housecleaning, whether that be literally or figuratively. Examine your surroundings and find what Frog may think needs cleaning out. Chances are, the best cleaning for you at this point will involve water - a soak in a hot tub, a swim in the pond, or just sitting out on a river bank absorbing the energy of the water as it flows by, and allowing it to wash your problems away. If none of these are possible under the circumstances, at least take a deep cleansing breath!
      Frog can also warn you if someone is sucking your energy. Use Frog's water to cleanse yourself, then look around in your space for a smudge of dirt. Once you find it, trace it back to the source, and give the smudge and the problem back to the person from whom it came.
      If you are feeling bogged down, you may be over-saturated by emotions. Perhaps Frog is telling you it is time to soak you problems away. Sometimes this may even be best done through having a good crying bout, washing the soul clean with tears.
