Animal Spirit Totem
“Whatever happens to the beast, also happens to the man.
All things are connected.”
Chief Seattle

Webster's Dictionary defines a totem as: “a natural object usually an animal that serves as a distinctive, often venerated emblem or symbol. A means of personal or spiritual identity”
In pagan religions and systems spirit animals or totem is meant to be a representation of the traits and skills that you are supposed to learn or have.
In an article by Presley Love spirit animals are dealt with as follows: “as you begin to engage with the totem animals, also known as power animals, spirit animals and guides you will start to recognize the synchronization and you will want to understand the hidden messages all around you that are “hidden in plain sight” and you will be recognizing that there are signs and messages everywhere.
Animal totem messages are meant to bring you signs and clarity to help you make decisions, showing that you are not alone, that in fact you are being guided at all times, in all things if you look but closer to see symbols and signs the Universe is giving you.
Spirit animals are ancient in legend, myth and lore.Animals are replete with symbolism and messages that will touch your spirit and stir your soul, awaking your consciousness to higher aspects of yourself and your destiny.”
Find your spirit animal and be guided
