I find it fascinating that Penguin appeared for this reading.  Penguin was the first animal to appear with a message within the International Koalition of Krones You Tube chats.  At that time (7^th May 2020) Penguin brought this very powerful message which is even more relevant today than at that time:

“You are a survivor of your past, but you are the creator of your future.”

At that time Penguin spoke of choosing how you wanted to view your future.  It was the start of the pandemic and there was a lot of fear and worry developing in the human world.  We could choose to fall into that fear, or to be aware of the situation but not allow fear to rule us or we could refuse to make any choices – which is also a choice of non-action.

Now, with Penguin returning, it is time to once again take our future into our own hands and allow the past to fall away.  You have survived.  This time, Penguin is not talking of individual choices, but rather, of making choices that recognise that we are each, individually, an aspect of our Community. 

A community of penguins is called a ‘huddle’.  I love that.  It makes me think of snuggling up with loved ones, and if you look at such a colony you can easily see why – they really do huddle up to each other – for safety, security, and support.  They move constantly taking turns at being in the inner circle and experiencing the warmth and in the outer circle protecting those inside from the freezing winds.  To the human eye it can look really chaotic, but to the penguins it is well organised.

During that time, it is the male penguin who has been constantly moving forward within that chaotic colony.  Penguins are there for each other.  We need to do the same – be there for our family and friends and our community.  Penguin mum has gone off to hunt for some very needed food and has left dad in charge of the chick.  She is away for over two months and during that time, Dad moves in the huddle with his chick balanced on his feet.

The things that Penguin can teach us from this are many.  We can work together for the survival of all.  We do know how to share the load in a diplomatic and well-mannered way.  We can keep moving forward, whilst remaining flexible.  And even in chaos we can remain strong, balanced and in harmony with Self and with others.
