I need a new e-moniker, both for blogs and elsewhere, and one that fits my personality. I'll never lose my X's, and rabbits have been a constant presence in my life for the last 10 years or so, so I think XrabbitX will be a good fit...
We did an exercise in psychology theories class: Close your eyes and imagine your home. Walk inside your house and go to your basement. Open the door and walk inside; draw what you see. (I drew a rabbit). This is your greatest enemy! (I wasn't so sure about that one, I thought the rabbit was my friend, and I still do).
I'm not sure if I believe in spirit animals but I read somewhere that rabbit's are active at dawn and dusk, when the spiritual realm is closest so rabbits are closely in tune with the spirit world. I like that...

Rabbits are guides into the shadow world, where our personal fears lie. When the rabbit shows up it is time to examine those deep reflexive fears that hold you back from growing. Do you keep bounding for the safety of your old patterns every time something new or challenging presents itself? If the answer is yes, the rabbit asks you to face your fears with compassion for yourself. You must accept that it is part of human nature to feel fear at times, but also believe that our fears need not paralyze our growth and movement.
Rabbit medicine is also very positive, showing us how to attract love, abundance, health, and a warm, dry burrow. We are guided to move through fear, living by our own wits, receiving hidden teachings and intuitive messages, quick thinking, strengthening intuition, and paradox. Rabbit represents humility, being quiet and soft and not self-asserting. If you see Rabbit or in any way feel attracted to him, this may be a sign for you to wait for the forces of the universe to start moving again, to stop worrying and to get rid of your fears. Rabbit always indicates a need to re-evaluate the process you are undergoing, to rid yourself of any negative feelings or barriers, and to be more humble.
