"Sheba" - Wolf Spirit
There is a game I play as a Spiritual Warrior and Seeker of the Way. It may seem a little silly to some people, however it is just a game. When I order a cup of coffee (a flat white here in Australia, coffee with cream in the USA), there is generally a little bit of foam on the top of the coffee which is stained with the colour of the coffee. When the Barrista has not deliberately designed the top of the coffee, I try to see what shapes appear in the coffee. Sometimes it can be quite engaging and at other times you don’t see anything at all. Today (13 April 2010), when I ordered a coffee I got something of a surprise.
When I got my coffee I was thinking about the second part of an article I had written in long hand just yesterday. The article (yet to be published) is the first in a series on meditation techniques to assist you in relaxing and possibly contacting your spirit guides. Imagine my surprise when I looked at my coffee and I saw a Wolf head looking back at me. I was looking into the eyes of one of my animal spirit guides, a wolf spirit. “Sheba” my she-wolf spirit guide was there in my cup looking back at me, reminding me of how slack I have been with writing and posting articles for Timberwolf HQ. I have been busy with craft work and other things, however that should not keep me from publishing my articles.
My guide
“Sheba’s” appearance was to remind me that I am a Spiritual Warrior and Seeker of the Way who acts as a pathfinder and teacher. How can you reach people and inspire them if you are not publishing articles she was telling me. The message was very clear, “You have chosen to blog your discoveries at Timberwolf HQ and have not done so for a while.” My guide has challenged me to write more.
As the title of my article suggests, I also have a challenge for you, my readers. Next time you order a cup of coffee (with foam on it – a cappuccino, latte or flat white) at your favourite cafe, ask the Barrista not to design the top. Then, try to find an image in the foam. Take a photo of this image and either:
- upload it to your photo-sharing social site such as photobucket or flick
- post a comment at the bottom of this article and include the html code to the image
or
- send an email to timberwolfhq@gmail.com
- attach the photo
I will then update the comment to include the image or update the article with the details you wish to have published and include the image you have photographed.
Good luck everyone. I look forward to receiving your images. You may also wish to include an interpretation of what you see.

Great post, as usual
I’m always looking for these types of signs myself! Perhaps it’s time to upgrade my camera phone lol
Thanks Siosi. Don’t forget to send me the images you find and any interpretation you may have.
I was revamping the look of one of my blogs late last year and was considering using a former design – a chameleon mascot. My coffee foam around about that week appeared in the form of a chameleon!
I had this image laying on my computer with no place to go until Timberwolf posted this article. The photo shows my former blog mascot and my coffee foam.

Hi Somone – Thanks for accepting the reader’s challenge. That is an amazing photo. The comparison to your sites mascot is truly incredible. The Chameleon is the master of change. It is sensitive to the environment and its surroundings. This mascot definitely conveys the meaning of your site, Thesis Theme HQ, where you tag line is ‘Bold, Bright and Beautiful Thesis Themes’.
I love the reviews and examples you have there showing just how adaptable the theme is (just like a chameleon). I also like the changes you have made to your site. Just a thought though, you might want to keep the chameleon on the landing page. Maybe hidden in the background, a kind of ‘spot the chameleon’ game for visitors? What do you think?

Hello,
I just wanted to say that I enjoyed reading your articles on the wolf spirit guides. They were very informative. I would like to share a short story with you of how I discovered my animal guide.
A few years ago while I was going through a troubled time in my life. I tried many different avenues to try and make things better. They didn’t work and I became more agitated and finally ready to give up. Until one night when I was finally getting a restful sleep. My wolf guide came to me in a dream, she was alone. She just sat there with her blue eyes piercing right through me. It was her way of saying, “I’m here to help, you can’t give up.” A feeling of peace washed over me and I was able to become one with my guide. A new journey began with paw and foot on the right path. Honestly I haven’t looked back since.
Hopefully this short story can inspire someone, or maybe help them in a difficult time.
Sincerely
Sherry M

Being of Cherokee Indian blood, I strongly agree with the concept of spirit guides. My own guide, a majestic looking male wolf named Ika, first appeared to me when I dropped a cup of tea and in the pool on the floor I could clearly see his face. It left me speechless for a long time afterward…
Hello and welcome to Timberwolf HQ. Thank you for sharing the story of the image of your spirit guide. It would have been amazing to see a photo of the image. Anyway, if you do happen to see one in your coffee or elsewhere, please come by and provide a link to it.
Thanks again.
