Year's ago I bought these
card that were paintings of animal spirits-done by Susan Boulet-and on the back are the various spiritual meanings associated with them in different cultures. They're quite informative but, I honestly just bought them because they were pretty. I hadn't even looked at them in quite some time but I got them out tonight. As I was looking through them I thought it would be cool for hubby and I to pick out our favorites and see what they said. We each picked 10, based on anything about them that appealed to us. We each read the information, out loud, from the others card's and found our picks remarkably insightful. We had a great time interpreting and learning about the different aspects of ourselves and each other and we were able to spend time with just "us", instead of the distraction of books, movies, the computer, and a great many other things. We decided that we do this or something similar again, maybe once a month or so. With all the every day distraction's it's so easy to forget to communicate about the important stuff and connect with each other. They were a terrific learning tool.
