what does it mean when a humming bird comes right up to you ?

Answer 1

Trust me, the hummingbird doesn't love you, nor does it want to be your pet.

You probably spilled sugar all over your red blouse.

Answer 2

Hummingbird teachings exemplify following your bliss, and by doing so you are nourished both physically and spiritually. Our culture, unfortunately, does not encourage this. Deeply rooted in the unconscious of most is the belief that too much pleasure is bad. We see this in our work ethics, our comfort with our own bodies and sensuality, and certainly, in an educational system that encourages conformity, not listening to the inner guidance of ones heart.

Brian Swimme, cosmologist and scientist, writes in his book ´The Universe is a Green Dragon´, that “By pursuing your allurements (bliss), you help bind the universe together. The unity of the world rests on the pursuit of passion.” He goes on to explain that this power of being drawn, through attraction, to what you desire is a primal dynamism´of the universe. Without this the galaxies would break apart. Individual stars would disperse, atoms would no longer attract each other, the sun, earth and moon would drift into intergalactic space. Call it gravity if you like, the principle is the same. The universe exists on the basis of attraction. Another word for this is Love. This is the word that points to the alluring activity of the cosmos.

Us humans are as much a part of this galactic dance as the stars; governed by the same laws that govern all of creation. I believe that the hummingbird reminds us of this. That following your bliss is a universal imperative, and it is through this, that you indeed fulfill your part in the design of things.

Some say, ´´Well, if everyone followed their passion it would be chaos.´Only if the passions are motivated by greed, and greed is simply the result of feeling under nourished by life. The wonderment of the Hummingbird is that it never takes more nectar than the flower can afford to give. And, at the same time it helps the flower to complete its purpose through pollination and such. Everything in nature teaches us this, from the tiniest hummingbird to the rain forests of the world.

In the circles I facilitate, the most common confusion for people is that they no longer know what their ´bliss´ is. So many of us mindlessly followed the belief systems of a culture that negates unique creative expression. “No pain, no gain. Work before pleasure. Life is a struggle.” are all familiar expressions. We were indoctrinated to listen to the voices of authority outside of ourselves, instead of the voice in our hearts that know.

How do you get back in touch with what fulfills you? My suggestion is, begin with your allurements and your own web of relationships. Your allurements draw you into the activity of evoking the life you desire.

Find a place to sit where you feel safe, preferably in nature. Have something to write on. Take a few deep breaths. Feel your body relax and sink into the arms of Mother Earth. Witness the beauty and activities of nature.

Answer 4

Today as I was praying to my heavenly Father, I asked Him to hold my hand as I looked up to heaven. As soon as I finished praying the Hummingbird flew just above my head and looked me straight in my eyes and flew away. I believe this was God's answer to me, "I hear your prayer."
