This black panther came to me in a dream a few days after my father passed. In this dream, I walked along side this panther as he led me though complete darkness. I felt another realm upon me where I heard my father calling my name softly. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to go. As I walked forward and gazed back, the panther's golden gaze told me I would be safe and protected. I was immediately transported into my dad's arms, he hugged me softly and told me he loved me. His presence so real. We were both embraced in the brightest white light I have ever seen. I woke up, spiraling out of this dream crying. I have never experienced a dream like that before. I knew after that, I had to paint this panther who led me through the dream realm to my father. This panther has a fierce protective spirit and oversees a space with his golden gaze, knowing in his presence you are loved.
