Totem animal

I have learned that you may have several totem animals in your life and often a main one that stays with you all your life. The animal chooses you not vice versa.

Often you will discover your totem animals because they seem to be around you often or captivate you. They are the ones you dream about or want to touch and be with. Those that evoke emotion in you.

I have a hedgehog (defensive, self-preservation, loner) and primarily a seagull (care free, versatility, freedom, flexibility, inventive but lazy, open minded )

Do you have a totem animal?

ps. no seagull jokes about me crapping on cars/heads please

Panther - animal of protection. The Panther is prominent in American Indian mythology, with its cunning, agility, and strength respected and admired by many tribes.The animal figures in the magic and shamanism of nearly all ancients as their progenitor, protector, or as a source of power to ward of disease or to excel as a hunter.

thats really nice...everyone wants to be something big and powerfull or graceful or cute rather than accept that what comes to them, comes to them for a reason. Apparently fishcake, "If you have long identified with the goat as your totem animal or if you have recently become drawn to it during a dream or a vision, you have chosen a spirit ally who will persist in assisting you to achieve whatever goals you wish to pursue. This spirit helper may have come to you to help you exercise more discernment in your relationships. Perhaps you need to know when to cease "butting" your head against brick walls."

Fish (which i guess includes rays!) symbolise elegance subtelty and grace. Dogy (wolfhounds an' all) symbolise loyalty Bears (maybe polar?)-Watcher, guardian of the world, giver of great strength of body, courage and power of will. Horse freedom (unicorn mythical freedom and imagination) Elephant -If you feel attracted to the elephant as a totem animal, it is likely that you are involved in social work, public service, or politics Rat - Cleverness

If Cat is your Power Animal, then you have magic and mystery in your life. You are independent and a free thinker. You probably feel energized at night. You will stay with a person or situation until it bores you, and then you're gone. You have a great talent for organizing things.

Fox: cunning, agility, quick-witted ====== Dolphin: kindness and play energy The beautiful, graceful, sleek dolphin carries many messages for the two-legged. Even though it is a mammal, its home is the sea and has mastered the art of breath control. Since water is the symbol of all life - of creation, passion and even sexuality - dolphin brings us teachings from the waters of life. Playful creatures, dolphins have long entertained man with their joyful antics. Studying dolphin communication has proved to be an awesome task for man. As in all animals, dolphins have developed sophisticated auditory signals that warn others of impending danger. Some believe that these animals are now warning man of impending danger as he ignores the balance of the natural world. Swimming with the dolphins has become a powerful experience for many people, and as they interact with these playful creatures, they cannot help but feel their communication. Dolphin reminds us that time to play is a crucial element to walk in balance. It moves through the water quickly and with great grace. Dolphin tells us to move with the ebb and flow of life, and not to search for brick walls to smash into, for to spend our energy fighting the current gets us nowhere. Dolphin medicine includes change, wisdom, balance, harmony, communication skills, freedom, trust, understanding the power of rhythm in your life, use of breath to release intense emotions, water power. ======
