There are many reasons a totem animal may be drawn to you or make his presence known. The totem may have come to assist you with a problem, by giving you strength or courage, patience or prodding you to act, awakening long buried memories or causing a certain life lesson to be memorable, or a myriad of other reasons.

Sometimes totems assist in a healing, or guide you to practices that will heal your body of a long standing ailment.

Sometimes the totem brings a message from a higher power than himself, or brings a message from another person in your life. Sometimes the message is a warning to stop some destructive behavior you have been doing, or it is a message that makes it clear to you that you have been doing some unkind thing you hadn’t been aware of or given any thought. The message may be a sign you have asked for telling you the right thing is to proceed or future events will turn out ok. using the unconscious mind to call your totem animals »»

If you have done everything in the preceding article, and your totem animals still aren’t apparent to you, you might ask Great Spirit to send you a visible sign that you cannot miss. Don’t be overly specific, or disrespectful though, by asking for something like, “Make my totem appear on my door step at exactly 9:00 Tuesday morning”. Even the Great Spirit is busy and cannot always accomodate your schedule. Sometimes He runs on Indin time, too.

It would be more respectful to ask for a sign by the end of the day or week, or during the beginning of a journey, rather than at an exact time. However, if you ask in a respectful way, more often than not, He will provide such a sign not long after you make this request. When the sign arrives, you will not wonder if this is it. You will know it’s what you were looking for and waiting for. life totems and power animals – not all animal totems are equal »»

The most beneficial way for the average person to begin to recognize their totems is to study their own interests and look in their own back yards, so to speak. In the following discussion, we will use the term animal. However, keep in mind totem animals are not necessarily mammals. They could be reptiles, insects, sea creatures, any of the life forms of the animal kingdom from anywhere in the world.

The most common misconception about totem animals is that the person chooses the animal. In reality, it is the other way around–the animal chooses you. So, start by looking at the animals you see every day. Slow down, and observe the world around you. Ask yourself this series of questions, and try to be spontaneous.

The natural power of animal totems has not been lost. Animals still have a vast store of knowledge and wisdom they can teach us. However, it is up to us as individuals to reestablish that connection.

We must open up our conscious minds and find a way to trust, and acknowledge our way isn’t the only way that’s right. Our ancestors understood these connections.

Many of you are familiar with the concept of American Indians living in balance with nature before the invasion of Europeans and forced confinement on reservations. Most acknowledge they had superior powers to white men when it came to maintaining balance and harmony with their surroundings, in understanding the animals and natural phenomenons in their world, and yes, even in their healing abilities.

The same could be said for African Americans or the people who often live to be 140 in Chile. What most don’t seem to realize is these abilities were not wiped out with forced assimilation into white society or modern society. Nor are these powers limited to men and women of color or people of third world countries.

It’s not just that some people have forgotten things their ancestors knew. It is that they deny they ever existed. They do not have an open mind. They do not try to understand. They do not make any effort to remember. Many of these lessons are already embedded in the intricate workings of our brains, in the very core of our genetic makeup.

We are born with this knowledge. We know it as young children. Not all “imaginary” playmates are imagined. As we grow and begin to ask questions, adults question our understanding. They tell us we are wrong. Things are not as they appear. We are taught adults are wiser, so we listen. We believe. We learn their misconceptions. We unlearn things we knew were true. We form bad habits. We become closed to the world around us. Respect and Honor the Animals »»
