Power Animals Part 2 It is believed that each person is born with nine different animals that bring to you messages, teachings and enlightenment. Whom bring greater insight and understanding to us throughout our lifetime. It is believed that two stay with you permanently and do not leave you these are called our primary totems or our power animals. Generally we know these by instinct, attraction and immediate connection with their essence. Sometimes we may even dream about these power totems or think about them. One walks on our left to guide and guard our feminine characteristics and energies. While the other totem animal walks on our right to guard and guide our masculine characteristics and energies. To determine the other seven totem animals that walk with you at any given time. You must research and learn about the totems and their characteristics. Only you know what totem is right for you and the journey you walk. The following questions will help you determine what your totem is: 1. When you go to the zoo, park or forest which animal do you want see first? We are generally drawn to that which fascinates us. 2. What animal do you see most often when you are out in nature or city? These animals are significant as they are presenting themselves to you. 3. What animal are you studying or most interesting in learning about now? These animals may have something important or specific to share or teach you. 4. Have you ever been attacked or bitten by an animal? If you have survived an attack it is believed that this was a test to determine your ability. 5.Which animal do you find most frightening or intriguing? That which we fear the most tends to bring forth something we must deal with or confront. 6. Which animals do you dream about or one that you have never forgotten? These are very important, as they may be specific to you. In preparation of our exercise please get yourself a huge cup of water, a pen and paper to take notes to review later. Also light candles, incense, put on some music or whatever you do to relax and calm yourself. I would like to begin our search for our power totem animal with a grounding and protection exercise.
