Unicorn spirit

One of my spirit animals that have been with me since a young child, and I understand more of this now as I am older.. Realizing this mystical creature has never once left my side ... It truly amazes me at the magick existing in this world .. If we truly open our eyes to see it's wonder and amazement. 

THE UNICORN ...

one of my all time favorite movies that I watched over and over as a child and cried my eyes out and I actually have this movie now on DVD as part of my collection ... "the Last Unicorn"

Not too long ago I watched this movie again to see if it would still carry the same tears falling from my eyes effect as it did each time I watched this movie as a child. ...  And please note that although I say I cried every time as a child while watching this movie .. Know that I literally watched this movie hundreds of times.. And each of those hundreds of times I Cried like a baby... Hysterical and taken aback by this magickAL story of enchantment of the lost Unicorn / girl made to be human who only wished to find her "others" whom were just as she ... 

Anyways.. I watched this movie again not so long ago to see if it would still carry those same effects ... And my dear God .. The cry baby in me still reigns .. Now I won't say I cried hysterically.. But I will admit tears welled up in my eyes and a big frog took over my throat and yea there was plenty of emotion .....

seeing this movie over again only shows me and proves to me more about the place i find myself in now in my life ... In my own spirituality ... And in my quest and my connections with my soul family. 

Whomever was creator of this story "The Last Unicorn" I tell you right now .. That person was very spiritual and in touch with a higher source of power and in this cartoon was much wisdom and profound artistic understanding into the human psyche .....

Today I was met with my Unicorn realm again .. And as Enchanting and knowing as I am about these beautiful mystical creatures I wish to share with you the connection and information when researched on Unicorns and what they mean for us spiritually. 

Remember any information I copy/paste I will provide link for after the pastings I do. 

I hope that you find Unicorns and their mystical properties to be a valuable source of spirit connectivity for you as they have been for me .....

"Dreams are the playground of Unicorns."
- Unknown

Perhaps the most wondrous of all mystical creatures, the Unicorn
is a Symbol of magic, miracles, purity, innocence and enchantment.
This magical and enchanting animal appears to only a rare few and
has the ability to bestow magic, miracles and Wisdom to those who
are pure of heart and virtuous in their deeds.

The presence of a Unicorn is announced by the soft and faint
tinkling sound of tiny bells being shaken; or of tiny Chimes being
rustled by a breeze. And as bells and chimes Symbolize the
presence of Divinity, the tinkling sound which accompanies the
nearness of a Unicorn reminds us that we are in the presence of
a highly spiritual essence whose boundless domain encompasses
all realms matter and spirit.

To kill a Unicorn is to destroy a Divine Incarnation of purity,
perfection, and wonder. It is a deed which burdens the individual who
commits the Act with an enormousKarmic debt.

The Unicorn is depicted as a white horse which has a long, straight,
spiral-shaped Horn protruding from the top of its head.

There are three basic Symbols contained in the Unicorn: the color
white, the horse, and the Horn:

The Horse is a Symbol of Travel and movement. And as the Unicorn
is a spiritual horse it has the ability to Travel and appear wherever,
and whenever, it wishes; it has the ability to appear throughout all
realms and dimensions.

White is the color of innocence, purity and perfection. White, which
is Symbolically similar to silver, represents the lunar, feminine
aspects of receptivity, instinct, intuition and virginity. Virginity in
its truest metaphysical and alchemical aspect represents the
unadulterated (untainted) mind and spirit; it is the prima materia
(pure matter) and the prisca sapientia(pristine knowledge, or
Wisdom). It is for this reason that to have a Unicorn appear to us
is both a great honor and Divine Gift. For, as stated before, only the
pure of heart and virtuous of deed are deserving to have a Unicorn
appear to them.

The Unicorn, unlike all other horned animals save perhaps the
rhinoceros, is a single-horned creature. While the two-horned
animals are linked, Symbolically, to the realm of duality and matter,
the Unicorn's single horn reminds us that its domain is the realm
of Unity; a realm that Transcends and exists beyond the bounds
of matter and duality.

The single, spiralled Horn is a Symbol of the endless, repeating
Cycles of Time. It is also Symbolic of theSword. And as the Sword
Symbolizes the mind, the Unicorn's Horn also signifies Unity of
Thought and purity of reason. We also notice that this single Horn
protrudes from the top of the Unicorn's head which is the location
of the crown chakra. The crown chakra is a Border Between Realms;
it represents the highest level which our mind can attain and is the
Spiritual Gateway to the higher realms of Spirituality and Divine
Consciousness.

When depicted within a forest, the Unicorn represents purity and
enchantment amidst growth, birth, rebirth, renewal and fertility;
which are all feminine essences.

When a Unicorn is portrayed along with a lion it Symbolizes the
Union of the feminine (white, lunar) and masculine (Gold, solar)
aspects of our dual nature. This Symbolism also represents the
Alchemical Marriage.

In Chinese tradition the Unicorn is an "auspicious and perfect
spiritual beast which appears when sages are born". ***

As we can see, the Symbolism of the Unicorn is deep, pure, and
magical. And as very few individuals are pure and virtuous enough
to have a Unicorn appear to them we should feel very Blessed
should a Unicorn someday appear along our Path.

The Significance of The Unicorn Spirit Guide
Strengths of the unicorn he shares with the shaman:

• The unicorn is a creature of emotion and instinctive understanding. When journeying with your unicorn power animal do not seek to understand what you experience with your intellect. Rather, call upon your bond with you unicorn spirit guide for an instinctive, intuitive and immediate reaction to events as they unfold. Your response will be far more appropriate when using instinct and intuition instead of reason, and your progress will be far swifter than were you alone.
• Suspend disbelief, trust to his innocent purity and ride on the wave of light that enfolds him!

~The Meaning of Unicorns~

I found many words written about unicorns, but I want to share the 'truth' that I found amongst them all. The way that I understand it, unicorns symbolize the spirit of purity, innocence, and childhood. Almost every traditional legend containing the unicorn states that only a young pure female could attract a unicorn to become visible and be of this reality. Even so, the legend of the unicorn combines male and female in one beast and therefore rich in the symbolism of opposites. ~Unicorns have long been a representation of the Moon, a clear indication of female energy; this yin side is evident in the mysterious, intuitive, magick found within the unicorn. This embodiment of purity and natural truth is found threaded throughout most of the major cultures of the world and is thought valid to be an archetypal image. Archetypes are universal, reflecting a primal energy pattern. Just as the moon reflects the light of the sun, symbols and images reflect an archetypal energy at play within out lives. When we work with archetypes, we are lead back to our own primal source. The journey becomes part of the sacred quest, in which we find our true core.  Archetypes can be seen as spiritual symbols, and the magick and power they hold is only as great as the significance we attach to it.~
