i have not been on this forum before today, when I had a very personal contact with a mantis...it remained on my body for 9 hours while at work. It would not leave me at all. it sat on my shoulder for 4 hours, and before that it sat on my hand. I tried to put it in a garden and he/she decided the right place to be was with me.I put her up close to my face so I could see the eyes...He looked me in the eye and curled up his leg and then stretched it out to touch my nose gently, then pulled back slowly.I brought him/her home and found a grassy place. A couple of hours later, I went to the spot and
Manteese (the name I gave it, tired of the need to call it him or her) was still there and sensed me and crawled immediately onto my hand.
This wonder has symbolized peace, sanctuary, meditation, and calm for many thousands of years. There is one person on here who is ready for combat about this subject...she is very defensive. Let go of the personal feeling of attack from anyone. Listen to what comes forth...it may be you that you have to heal, not everyone else. You are already whole, you just see the fragments.
So where is Manteese?
I don't know...do I need to?
