First of all, many thanks to @Dreamweaver for creating this.
Thank you to @Jennyfire for leading the community project and getting this all created for us.
This NFT was a joint collaboration between those of African descent in the forum.
I’m not 100% certain what went in this. This is some of the attributes and strengths shared with Dream:
The spirit of the Giraffe, a gentle yet wild and carefree animal aligns to connect you to higher realities. This gentle giant is authentic in all he/she is.
You will find yourself resonating with a higher view, a perspective that perhaps others do not have, a communication with an energy source that many don‘t understand.
There is a silent yet powerful view that will have you on full alert, this connection brings many thoughts and ideas and opens the pathways for you to act on them, basically connecting you straight into the universal consciousness that is all around.
You will see and understand how unique you are, how all your source truths and divine gifts are individual to you.
Giraffes stretch upward to reach the treetops and look down from a high vantage point. When Giraffe Spirit appears, it is a sign to observe from a higher view. In all aspects of your life, it‘s time to stretch your neck out and broaden your view, open your eyes to what others need or are experiencing, and see the big picture you fit into. Look beyond what catches your attention at eye level and know that not everything is as obvious as you might like it to be. Giraffe Spirit will bestow upon you a New Perspective that might make all the difference.
Perched on its long legs and with a huge neck, the giraffe observes its environment from a different perspective and thus symbolizes the elevation of the spirit. Its large eyes, hemmed with silky lashes, give it excellent eyesight. Never disdainful or contemptuous despite its tall stature, it looks at the world with a fair and gentle gaze.
If the giraffe knows how to take a step back from events, it is nonetheless connected to reality. Its head close to the sky and its legs well anchored in the ground symbolize the union between the telluric and cosmic forces. At the crossroads of these two opposing but complementary energies, the Giraffe represents the harmony between body and spirit.
Giraffes are the land animals with the biggest hearts: 13 kilos on average! A true symbol of generosity, compassion and kindness.
The symbol of quiet strength
Although the giraffe inspires calm and invites us to slow down, it is nonetheless a strong character. Its exceptional size, its inaccessible neck and its formidable hooves discourage the most hardened predators. Its resistance to fatigue (giraffes sleep barely 2 hours a day) and to the lack of water represents the ability to make the most of its resources.
A Giraffes tongue is 50cm long. The long tongue reminds us to be eloquent and deliberate in our speech while taking care not to over-talk. May we always know what to say at the right time and may we always speak kind and gentle words.As a beautiful, wild, and exotic animal, the giraffe connotes sexuality, uniqueness, and pride.
Giraffe people are lovable and charming and are a very pleasant company. They are devoted lovers, good friends and amazing parents.
Grace and poise are other outstanding characteristics of the giraffe, which it does not lose even in those most difficult and challenging moments.
The Giraffe’s long lashes are also symbolic of protection. Those long lashes effectively keep out debris, and we can translate this as an assurance that our visions are protected by the wisdom of Nature, and we have the ability to discern the right meanings of our visions under the guidance of our animal totems – in this case, the giraffe.
Through the Giraffe spirit your intuition is alive and well. You can sense love, connection, fear and hatred from others without even them being present in the room. Many people see you as switched on with a clear vision of the physical and spiritual world.
People love your warm nature and how comfortable you are in your own skin.
When the giraffe spirit animal comes into your life, you gain an unlimited view of things around you. At the same time, you have a solid connection with your family and the people you are related to. If Giraffe is your power animal, then just like giraffe you will have very strong bonds with family and friends, especially parent and children.
The giraffe is a graceful creature. Even if it is surrounded by coarse and unruly beings, it remains clam and serene.
Having the giraffe in your life unleashes the full potential of your soul. You are able to tap into the most reliable sources of knowledge.
The giraffe spirit animal gives the ability to blend rather well socially. You have unique intuitiveness that enables you to bond with people of different calibre.
Vision - Far-seeing kind of vision. Seeing far into the future. Natural visionaries. Giraffe people have a knack for seeing future trends.
Gain the ability to see your life in a more expansive manner. Additionally, you gain the desire to evolve spiritually. When the giraffe spirit animal makes a connection with your life, your foresight will expand exponentially. You will be able to take the lead in your social and professional spheres.
The giraffe reminds you that there is only one you, and you are divine. Distinctiveness is yet another asset you possess, as the fur patterns of no two giraffes are alike.
Giraffes are very quiet, laid back, docile animals making little noise except for the odd bleat. This brings the wisdom, and power, of silence. Words often take our focus away from silent reflection. Learning to balance speech with silence, peace and tranquillity is very important.
Giraffes also have a third horn that is not easy to notice. This horn lies between the eyes and symbolizes a third medium for vision. A third eye has symbolic ties to intuition, swift recognition, and telepathy. All three of which are traits that benefit us in our quest to see clearly into our futures.
Giraffes have extremely keen eyesight and can see great distances: they can spot a moving person a mile away! They also have excellent hearing. These sharp senses help giraffes stay alert for predators - like lions! Giraffes communicate with each other using infrasonic sounds – frequencies below the range of human hearing. They can communicate with other Giraffes over great distances often miles.
Giraffes use body language as their main medium of communication, including touching, licking and dominance, defensive and antagonistic displays and warnings, which come in the form of a change of posture. Zebras have learnt to read giraffe body language and to use them as an early warning system for danger.

Rosetta Stone
Napoleon Bonaparte’s campaign of 1799 in Egypt led to one of the most important discoveries of all time. In a bid to get back at Britain, Napoleon led an army of soldiers and scholars into the strategically located colony in Northern Africa. While rebuilding a fort in the Rosetta area that was perceived to help inhibit Britain’s trade and believed to be a formidable ancient civilization comparable only to Greece and Rome, Pierre-Francois Bouchard, a French officer, inadvertently came across a black stone slab that would later revolutionize Egypt. It became the key to understanding Egyptian hieroglyphs.
The Rosetta Stone is an ancient slab of stone, 44 inches tall and 30 inches wide, made of black granodiorite. It bears three different types of writings: Greek, Egyptian Demotic, and Egyptian hieroglyphics. It’s, therefore, safe to say that the Rosetta Stone not only exposed Egyptian language and culture but also provided a window to other ancient cultures like Mesopotamia, Ancient China, Mayans, and the Olmec.
