What are animal totems and how do you know what yours is?

Tip for best answer: M$0.25
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Most natives have a rituals called dream or spirit or vision quest.

One way to find your "totem" is that through shamanaic Journeying. It is a kind of intentional dream while you are awake.

"Eons of years in the making, these unique natural sandstone coasters are extremely porous, absorbing all condensation from your beverages. When your glass is lifted, these natural sandstone coasters WILL NOT STICK! Each set contains four coasters and a beautiful oak coaster holder. Choose from over twenty designs."

Totems are usually in an animal form. They are used in the American Indian culture to explore one's inner self more fully. The Zuni Indians choose there totems according to what season or element (water, air, fire) they most loved. Other tribes choose their totems according their favorite animal. You do not choose a totem, they choose you.

The animal spirits whose qualities we most associate with or those animal spirits which most associate with us. These are qualities that we feel most connected to or qualities that are connected with us. It is a simple belief, that we are all connected, humans, animals and mother earth.

Our animal spirits (totems) can guide us through all or certain parts of our lives. An easy way to learn your totem is to find a quiet place and concentrate or meditate. Don't try too hard or your totems will elude you. It is possible to have several totems and these totems can change as we change throughout life.

Every animal on earth is sacred, revered or has spiritual meaning in one culture or another. Just as the Eagle symbolizes unity, strength and freedom for the United States. Below we list the symbolic meaning of animals in many Native American Indian traditions.
