The turtle has one home in the swirl of water and emotion and another in the steady grounding of the earth. In some traditions the turtle represents mother earth and is the personification of goddess energy. Mother earth is all we need. She will care for us, protect us and nurture us if we do the same for her. The turtle has a shell on her back for protection and to carry her home wherever she maybe.
North America is often referred to as Turtle Island by the indigenous peoples. The turtle can teach us to slowdown and go with the flow. To be careful in new situations and to be patient in reaching our goals. The turtle often shows up in our lives when it is time to retreat into our shells to give us time to consider our ideas and plans until we are ready to express them. In this way turtle teaches us to be adaptable and to find harmony from within.
The turtle may suggest you need to ask yourself the questions; am I seeing as I should? am I hearing as I should? Pay attention to ensure you do not miss opportunities.
