Some of the pieces were starting to fall into place now - at least a few.
She understood why it was the autumn angel that came to accompany her on this part of the journey. Autumn is the power time of the moose.
It was about fourteen years ago that the moose first spoke to her. She saw him standing in that marsh a short distance from the mountain. That was when she realized, that despite his awkward beauty, he was the animal that resonated God's name for her.
She didn't see him again until three years ago - even though she kept her eyes open for him - hungered for the sight of him.
Even then, she didn't see him. She just felt his frustrated bull moose energy coming up from deep inside of her. She didn't like that feeling - wanted to escape that feeling - but there was no escape. Just tolerance. A learning to live with. Then finally the beginnings of a gentle acceptance.
Then out of the blue, a baby moose - wearing his buckskin muk-a-luks jumped into her arms and asked to come home with her. He asked if he could live with her for the rest of her days. She held him close to her - feeling his softness and his substance - all at the same time.
This is what she had spent her life looking for - longing for.
And now the old nun that despaired when her mind could not find the love she had once known;
found new joy as the baby moose showed her she was looking in the wrong place. The love hadn't left her - it had settled in her heart.

Well, I've read this post twice & I still don't understand it. I think, one of us needs a stronger drink. Probably me.

The pieces of the puzzle don't always fall neatly into place.
And sometimes images express them better than words.
It's all about inner energies and how/when they were manifested on the physical plane in some significant way for me.
Feel free to put your own spin on it. And also, please feel free to share it with us. Who knows - it might just lead me where I'm trying to go.
Moose is Feminine power, and maybe, just maybe, it's time to reacquaint yourself with what's always been yours.
You've striven through your introspection and your postings for the Balance of masculine-feminine energies....as Moose people are wont to do.
Could it be that you're to reexamine that which has always been the true Soul of you?
Woman gives birth to Child. Woman should allow herself to be born.
Nurture yourselve, Ladies. You deserve it now.

Thank you,Wollf, for sharing your wisdom and insight with us. I didn't know that Moose was Feminine power but I did feel like I had come home to myself. That is what I was trying to express - a little inadequately.
