Hello and welcome to Psychic Teachers. I'm your host Samantha Faye and I'm Deb Bowen.

And we're very happy to have you join us this week. We are discussing a very interesting topic and it's a question that Deb and I receive in one form or another about every week.

Our topic today is how can you tell if you're off your path?

So we're going to be discussing some signs and symptoms you can look to in your life to determine if maybe you paused, stalled or walked off your path.

And we'll conclude the hour with some tips and techniques to get back on your path so you can fulfill the reason why you are here.

But before we dive into that topic, as you lovely listeners know, we always start with a crystal of the week and an animal of the week. Deb would you like to share who our animal friend is this week?

I will be delighted to do that. You know Samantha, one of the things that we're going to be talking about later in the hour about our spiritual path is the concept of synchronicity.

And I need to talk about synchronicity in terms of this week's animal person who is usbree and I had a lovely listener email me and asked me to talk about usbree and past couple of weeks.

And where I live, there is a channel marker out in the channel marker in the channel next to my house, which is home to an osprey nest.

And so for several weeks now, I have been going out and watching and photographing as best I can with a cell phone.

I was going to talk about usbree's nest there young on this channel marker. I captured a great picture the other day. I wish it had been clear of the changing of the guard because usbree is made for life.

And so both parents have a responsibility in guarding the nest and sitting the nest and protecting the babies once they are born.

And once the babies are born and can fly a bit, they move them out of the nest into another place.

So yesterday when I went out to check on the osprey nest was clearly deserted, but I found them over across the channel in the marsh raising the babies and as a ground bird wood like a gall wood.

So usbree are amazing, amazing people. They are huge. They're also called sea hawks or fish hawks.

I know there's a university in North Carolina whose mascot is the sea hawk and students don't always realize that that's the same thing as this magnificent bird called an osprey.

They are white on their bellies and on the underside of their wings and their heads are white. So they're often mistaken for eagles. They're not their their ospreys. They're a member of the hawk family.

So like other hawks, they come to us as messengers. They remind us.

And this is information that is coming from my having mass spent several weeks meditating with hot with the sea hawk is they come to us to remind us to be connected to the waters of our intuition to be self reflective because the water energy teaches us to be reflective and to connect our intuition.

With our inspiration and to go within and look within that the well of ourselves. So osprey gives us a great lesson in self reflection and in continuity with both the spirit of water and the spirit of air because they are beings of those as we can be as well.

So there you go. That's a little bit about osprey. I could probably do a whole show on osprey but but for today that's enough. So there you have it.

That's unbelievable. Well the crystal I chose is lightning strike courts, which is a fairly rare stone and can be very expensive of five inch piece. For example, we'll run you about $250.
