Hummingbird's Guided Journey: An Interactive Exploration
Written on
Chapter 1: The Hummingbird's Message
With the hummingbird as your mentor, this guide conveys a significant message. This particular hummingbird was initially inspired during the First Quarter Moon in Aquarius within the New Moon in Scorpio Cycle and seeks to conclude its story under the Full Moon in Gemini. While readers can engage with this tale at any moment, understanding the source of its energy is crucial.
In a previous discussion, I shared a tale from the Quechua people of Peru about a hummingbird attempting to extinguish a fire in a jungle by transporting water droplets in its beak. The other animals scoffed at its efforts, deeming its small contribution insignificant. The hummingbird responded that at the very least, it was doing its part.
You rush to catch up with the hummingbird, whose diminutive form thrives in its agility as it flits down a dirt path. You witness the tiny bird disappear through a gap in a wall entwined with climbing roses.
As you draw closer, you discover a garden concealed by the trellis, where the hummingbird flits about. Noticing breadcrumbs on the ground, you follow them until they lead you to a hidden doorway shrouded in rose vines.
You gently push the door open, unveiling a stunning garden. Your eyes scan for the hummingbird, and you find it…
- Near a fountain
- At a table where someone is seated
You decide to approach the fountain. Gazing into its depths, you see coins resting at the bottom, surrounded by koi fish swimming gracefully. Water lilies and lily pads adorn the surface.
The hummingbird zips past, drawing your attention to a sign that reads, "Pick one up and make a wish." Looking down, you notice shimmering silver and gold coins scattered about. You kneel and select a coin.
- Gold
- Silver
You make a wish and toss your chosen coin into the pond, watching it sink down to rest among the others.
As music begins to play, you notice the hummingbird darting toward a cottage, and you follow. Inside, the enchanting melody envelops you. You spot someone playing a harp and contemplate where to sit.
- A cozy chair by the fireplace in the back
- A folding chair nearby to get closer to the musician
Section 1.1: Exploring Symbolism
Within this journey, several symbols emerge for you to reflect upon:
⚜️ Hummingbird
⚜️ Koi fish
⚜️ Water fountain
⚜️ Coins
⚜️ Picking up coins
⚜️ Tossing coins
⚜️ Wishing
⚜️ Music
⚜️ Harp

Life can sometimes feel chaotic and overwhelming. There are struggles and disappointments, alongside unexpected successes. You may find yourself questioning the worth of your endeavors. Will you achieve your goals?
The path you have chosen, centered around coins, signifies your "personal value, wealth, or financial circumstances." It may also allude to opportunities that seem stagnant or unproductive. You possess the strength, courage, and resilience to persevere even amidst adversity (symbolized by the koi fish). Acknowledging your failures can be difficult, yet it's a critical lesson in growth.
Despite facing challenges, you maintain faith that opportunities will arise, even if it requires starting over (represented by water lilies and lily pads). You wish for prosperity in the chances that come your way, hoping to find stability.
Regardless of whether you are currently in a position of opportunity or one is on the horizon, you recognize that reaching each milestone demands courage, patience, and determination. The journey to success is diverse, and not everyone will reach it. Whatever you pursue, it is essential to invest your whole self into this opportunity, as the drive to succeed must come from within.
Draw from your inner peace and guidance (the harp) to navigate this phase. You may need to integrate your creativity and passion (represented by musical instruments) into your life. Opportunities that arise may not align with your spiritual growth or financial well-being. Connecting with your higher purpose and spirituality is vital, as your career path should complement your spiritual journey.
Consider taking a retreat or a short break to clarify your desires and how to proceed on your path (both the chair and the fireplace). This sabbatical may help you escape any stagnation you might be experiencing.

Chapter 2: Choices and Self-Reflection
The first video, "Full Moon in Gemini, December 7th / 8th - Making the Right Choices," explores the importance of decision-making during this lunar phase. It emphasizes how choices can shape our paths and outcomes.
The second video, "Full Moon Ritual for Integration and Celebration! Full Moon in Gemini December 7, 2022," offers insights into rituals that can enhance personal growth and spiritual connection during this transformative time.
The significance of the folding chair and moving it closer offers two interpretations.
First Interpretation:
Taking the initiative to get closer to absorb wisdom (by moving the chair near the musician) does not guarantee clarity in what is being learned. The folding chair symbolizes a temporary solution—convenient yet not steadfast. Do you only absorb knowledge when it suits you? Are you merely going through the motions without truly applying what you’ve learned? Perhaps you have been influenced too much by others and neglected your own voice.
Second Interpretation:
Emphasizing flexibility, this chair signifies adaptability. You may lead a nomadic lifestyle or have a career that allows for independence. Regardless of your situation, it is crucial to connect with your inner peace and find balance. Life may be chaotic, but with focus and understanding of your own needs, success is attainable.
In the middle of the narrative, you encounter coins. Which coin will you select?
- Gold
- Silver
Your hard work will bear fruit as long as you maintain a spiritual drive to overcome challenges. Obstacles will always present themselves, but the ambition to climb that steep mountain is key. Remember, success is not a race against others; it's about your journey, strength, and personal narrative.
As you conclude this interactive quest led by the hummingbird, remember that two more journeys await, inspired by the New Moon in Scorpio. Each quest can stand alone as a spiritual exploration, and I hope the paths you've chosen resonate with your experience.
If the journey does not align with your spiritual path, it might serve as a valuable lesson rather than a personal experience.
