Creativity requires connecting the dots, and connecting the dots requires allowing time for my subconscious to consolidate my ideas and make associations. This means that, from time to time, I need to just stare out the window and do nothing.
This doesn’t feel productive, even though it is.

Smallest Big Cat: Leopards are the smallest of the big cats (Panthera) which consist of Tigers, Lions, and Jaguars. And the smallest of the Leopards is the Snow Leopard.

Known as the "Ghose of the Mountains", snow leopard spirit animal teaches us how to be elusive. Her camouflaged coat, quiet movement, wary habits, and vast, inaccessible home range make snow leopard sightings extremely rare.
Snow leopard spirit animal carries the ghost archetype. She's an expert at ghosting.
Challenges come with inhabiting the ghost. You can feel in between worlds. Be apart from the world. This is isolating and lonely, like haunting your own life. Snow leopard is most active at dawn and dusk. These are the in between times with low visibility.
When working with snow leopard symbolism, you may be tempted to avoid vulnerability by ghosting others. Slipping away. Hoping they'll forget you.
Snow leopard comes to help you manage your conflicting attraction and averstion to people not seeing you. She helps you decide when you're noticed and when you're not. Choosing solitude in a healthy way, rather than avoiding intimacy.
You may also experience other people ghosting you by causing physical or emotional distance. Snow leopard spirit animal provides much needed companionship and guidance during periods of estrangement.

Ten years in the life of a book.
“Since these creatures dwell in the high altitudes of the tranquil mountains of the Himalayas, they are almost one with the Great Spirit and the Mother Earth. If the snow leopard is your power animal, you can easily communicate with the wisdom dormant within you, and hence, you should try to open up yourself to your intuitive abilities.”

Snow leopard spirit animal thrives in climates with high exposure to cold and aridity. With her thick coat, tail full of stored fat, and big feet like snowshoes, she endures harsh freezing temperatures and long winters. You don't need to move to a colder climate or buy a thick parka to appreciate what it takes to endure exposure to the cold.
