#Nature Awareness 5/22/2013 - Stingray. The stingray often shows itself as a totem to those who have enhanced "feeling" senses. It is the stingray's natural electrical sensors that alert it to potential dangers, and these electrical awarenesses cross over into metaphysical symbology as well. When the stingray appears it could be a sign that you need to become more aware of your surroundings. The stingray's coloring allows it to safely camouflage itself in the sand on the ocean floor. Are you keeping yourself low and out of sight? When stingray shows up it could indicate a time to keep to yourself and stay out of the lime light. Symbolism: planning and counter-planning, protection, emotional and mental balance, sensory talents, creating fundamental realities, awareness.
