At 7am this morning I had the amazing privilege of watching a doe give birth to two babies underneath the willow in my own backyard! 🥰✨ Truly an amazing experience to witness the beauty of this aspect of the cycle of life on Earth.

Deer are a symbol of the forest and often associated with abundance and good luck. Deer have a peaceful serenity and swiftness that represents the balance of all life on Earth. To witness the birth of deer babies is symbolic of being on the right path and in many cultures is seen as a blessing to the individual witnessing.

The day before I had been researching forest farming as apart of my future plans to own a farm on the land I own. I don’t want to remove any trees on the property so I’m learning how to farm the land in a decolonized way, in harmony with the environment. After witnessing this birth I think the spirits of the land approve of this plan.

After I saw these births I went back to sleep for a while and had a dream where my backyard was filled with dozens of deer. They were even somehow within the enclosed garden I have out back. The message I felt was to break down these barriers and farm/garden within the land itself, instead of placing fences around my plants they should be apart of the environment!
