(Mysterious exterior, Emotional, great depths, transformation) In the Chinese
legend, if a snake is eating an eel, you should wait until only the head is still visible and
cut it off; if you carry  this head about with you, your income will be assured and you
will always win at games.The eel brings in the kundulini energy; the serpent creative life
force; and within us the force of life that allows for our greatest transformation. A
study of the kundulini process will be of great benefit to those whom the eel appears as
a messenger or totem.This also means that there is a great journey ahead. It will be so
transforming that even our family may not recognize us through the changes and into
great depth  and distance. We may find ourselves travelling to distant places and
exploring new depths that will transform us. What we were may not even be visible at
all. We will have grown stronger spiritually and phsysically transforming.

animal with supernatural power in many cultures.e.g. (The Norse Odin, The Hindu
Surya,Apollo in Greek mythology,Chinese astrology. Mostly horses symbolize freedom,
often times without restaint. The horse served humanity in travel, in war, in
agriculture,even closely connected to the donkey, they too were connected as the
beasts of burden. Horse people have the ability to carry those burdens and not feel the

to other dimensions.  With the arrival of the horse, they were free to move and to travel
great distances without needing to take long breaks.They are strong and able to "bare up
" under the strain of difficult circumstances.Horse people can be a little complexed,but
it takes time to domesticate a horse person.They are always on the go and can never sit
still long enough to settle. They love new journeys,and their freedom, love and devotion.
