Have you ever had an animal or animals that just keep showing up?
Whether in physical form, telepathically, or in unexpected ways?
Such as random advertising, books you're reading, someone giving you a statue or choosing the same animal in Oracle cards, even from different decks?
Sometimes they will show up repeatedly, especially three times in a short amount of time.
Indigenous peoples from around the world have looked to animals for messages, omens and prophecies for centuries. They can see the wisdom that the animals movements can have on our lives and decision making in the near and far future.
Animal Totems, sometimes referred to as Spirit Animals, or Power Animals can assist us with altering our frequency and vibration, in fact we can call them in, or focus on their specific energy if we would like to empower ourselves with their attributes.
Such as;
● Dogs,( even a specific breed you may be drawn to, and their traits); loyal, faithful and like to have a master
● Eagles; Fly high gaining higher perspective and use the wind currents to sail through the sky effortlessly
● Whales; are the wisdom keepers of ancestral information
● Lizards; enjoy movement and have smart tactics to avoid becoming prey
● Swans; are pure ease, grace and strength
● Bears; Also strong, but in a more confronting way, they stand in their power
Keep in mind; Animal Totems tend to hold the resonance of the animals as a collective, their higher consciousness, rather than the nuances of the individual.
Sometimes there can be a significant soul memory from a previous life, so their energy feels familiar to us and can sometimes cause an unexplained fear response.
For example;
Dolphins have played a huge role in my life. Ever since I was a little girl, I would dream of them, play with them, even sleepwalk and feed them!
They feel like coming home to me, definitely kindred spirits. When I swam with them daily in Hawaii; I felt the most alive I have ever felt. And they continue to visit me in Dreamtime, so I can swim and frolic with them in another realm. I wake up from these sessions feeling like I've been in the ocean. I can taste the salt water on my skin. I would readily journey with these magical beings anywhere!
Dolphins are the absolute embodiment of pure joyfulness, play and connection.
The way they communicate with other sea creatures and one another is extremely advanced. Almost like a holographic frequency, yet from a place of pure and unconditional love.
It is an incredible energy to be immersed in.
I have all sorts of Dolphin paraphernalia, purely because every time I see them it reminds me of their beautiful essence.
Goats also have a huge place in my heart. My whole being responds to their gorgeous cheeky ways. They see what they want and will let nothing get in their way, while happily employing anything to climb upon to reach those higher branches. The little goat pictured with me is Boo, I was doing Readings at a local show when Lil Boo jumped her fence at the Petting Zoo to come over and play. She made my day, and also lightened my energy by her presence. Animals often do things to make us laugh, bless them!
In my experience, we seem to have a main Spirit/Totem/Power Animal, and a variety of others that assist us with different phases of our life and changing circumstances, including some very timely and powerful answers.
Keep your eyes peeled and your heart open, this sort of work can be life changing, or at the very least it's a lot of fun!
There are some wonderful online resources and information you can look up for specific animals that keep "appearing" and meditations by Steven D Farmer that can help you discover and journey with your totem animals or Animal Spirit Guides. ( this one is a recording from the HayHouse series)You can even ask questions and in turn receive guidance and gifts from your personal spirit animal. The soundbite below is 26 minutes long, with the first part being the explanation.
The second part is Just the meditation, which is starts at the 11 minute mark.
Please allow yourself some time afterwards to assimilate the information that has revealed itself. Click HERE for Steven D Farmers Messages from your Animal Spirit Guide meditation.
I do recommend listening to this at least once in full!
