Dolphin Symbolism


Dolphin speaks to us of the breath of life, the only thing that humans cannot go without for more than a few minutes. Within the breath we encounter the rhythm of life which all life emits. In changing the rate or rhythmic texture of our breath we can tap into any other life form or creature.

This is the very easy way to connect with divine energy coming from Great Spirit, as well as with personal rhythms.

Dolphin is the keeper of the sacred breath of life and teaches us how to release emotions through dolphin breath. Dolphin creates rhythm, swimming through the water and breathing before submerging, then holding its breath for the duration of underwater travel. As Dolphin comes above water again, it blows its breath out in a manner resembling the popping of a cork. We can use this technique to pull the stopper on our tensions and create total relaxation. This is a good exercise to use before entering the silence.

Manna is life force. Manna is present in every atom and is Great Spirit's essence. Dolphin teaches us how to use life-manna through our breath. It revitalises each cell and organ, and breaks the limits and dimensions of physical reality so that we may enter Dreamtime.

Dolphin travelled the oceans one day as Grandmother Moon weaved the patterns of the tides. Grandmother Moon asked Dolphin to learn her rhythms so that he could open his female side to her silvery light. Dolphin began to swim to the rhythm of her tide weaving and learned to breathe in a new way. He continued to use this new rhythm and entered the Dreamtime. This reality was a new and different place from the sea he had known.

Dolphin came to discover underwater cities in the Dreamtime, and was given the gift of the primordial tongue. This new language was the sound language which was brought by Spider from the Great Star Nation. Dolphin learned that all communication was pattern and rhythm and that the new aspect of communication was sound.

From that moment forth, Dolphin had a new role ... he became the carrier of messages of our progress. The Dreamtime dwellers were curious about the children of Earth, and wanted us to grow at one with Great Spirit. Dolphin was to be that link.
