Study the animal with different materials because different materials will bring out different aspects of the animal.

I chose Tigger from Winnie the Pooh. The instruction was to just create without a lot of thinking and then ask myself
- Why did Tigger come to me today?
- What does it value?
- What does it tell me about what I value, what I love?
I've written my responses on the page where I made multiple studies of Tigger. I've copied it below.

I love Tigger's **vitality**. It's a word I have so often applied to myself. After burnout it has been what I want. Before burnout, and especially when young, it is what I was.
I still want vitality but actually think I have it. It's not Tigger vitality anymore. That energy, that manic energy, would make anxious and crazy feeling.
I'm thinking of Joanne saying that we are crones and therefore no longer beginners. I claimed that we are beginner crones and I think that's true. But Joanne is right too and it shows in my no longer desiring or being capable of Tigger energy!
