Meet Onyx from Montreal, Quebec in Canada
He is a 3-year-old Western Hognose snake🐍His human reached out to me as he disappeared from his play pen a week before. He is a very confident little boy and loves to be close to his humans, but something changed. His human kept feeling that he is scared, and it was strange because he is confident in character.
When I worked with him, he showed me that he exited the apartment via a hole in the bathroom wall. He did this to get away from the busyness of the world as he went into a process called shedding. He was experiencing bodily changes. He didn’t mean to go so deep in between the inner walls of the apartment building. His body was connecting with a cold, hard surface and it was very dark. He seemed to have moved closer to a space that becomes warm at times – this could be a water pipe. He was one level lower than the level his humans were on, and this is what has made him feel uneasy and scared, together with not being able to see well.
He slipped into a deep transformative state. When snakes start shedding and when they draw “inward” they can become extra skittish, so this was also contributing to the fact that he felt scared. He was in a very vulnerable space which one would call the “Blue Phase”. His eyes were cloudy too because the newly formed skin covered his eyes too. He felt a strong need to be close to water as it was rather dry where he is. He had been rubbing himself lightly against a hard surface that seemed to be rough. I got the feeling that it was a brick wall as the texture of the surface was coarse. He had no desire for food, and he wasn’t thirsty either. In fact, he was feeling lethargic.
His message to his human was : “Thank you for checking in with me. I’m resting my mind, and I am channelling all my energy into shedding my skin. I feel like I have moved a little bit too far down, but once I regain my eyesight, and I feel a little bit stronger, I shall try my best to move up towards the hole. In every being there is a vibrational energy that is accessible by slowing down and searching within to inquire. You need to stop stressing, and you need to draw inward to connect to your truth. I have retreated into the darkness, and I hope that this communication will help you to lift your vibration. It is your chance now to remain in the light, even if it seems like a more difficult path. You need to get back to your roots, and when this process of transformation is finished, we will be reunited. I love you with all my heart, and I thank you for giving me the time to rest and do what I need to do.”
He told me that he needed a maximum of 5-6 days to emerge from the state he was in. After four days I got this message from his human: “We found him!!! Thanks for your help. He managed to head back to my room and back to me directly.”
Nature follows its own pace and Onyx taught us that it is as important to rest and go into a state of contemplation as it is to be active. May you find a moment today to be still so that you can shed old ideas, beliefs and outdated thoughts that keep you from thriving.
