Okay, well, I was told that I needed to post the story of how I met my spirit animal, Baldwin, the eagle. So uh, here it is, in brief. The story itself is really brief because whenever I try to meditate, something makes a noise and I can only do so for a few minutes, ahaha. So yeah...here it is.
[Ohand. Here's my form thing that I didn't fill out.]
Name: Jaimie
Spirit Animal: Eagle
Animal's Name: Baldwin
Story: After reading about all of this spirit animal stuff, I decided to try and find my spirit animal. So basically, after trying to meditate in a few different places (because it's so loud everywhere), I finally got some peace and quiet. So I did as directed and walked into the cave in my mind; a little challenging because it was up on a ledge, ahaha. Anyway, after I walked through the tunnel and on the other side that opened into a valley, I walked down the the mountain/cave side onto the grass. I repeatedly said, "Show yourself!" while I heard a lot of screeching. Screeching that came from an eagle, no doubt.
So then the mighty eagle flapped his giant wings before me and spoke with a calm but hushed tone. He told me he needed to speak with me, and I asked for a sign...that was when my meditation ended because my cat came up with his jingling collar.
Later that day, I was on the computer. I was doing some surfing on the net when I got a pop-up ad for an eagle screensaver. I figured that that was my sign of confirmation.
So then, I went to meditate again to see if I could speak with him. I walked into the valley the same way, and in again he came screeching. I asked him for his name, and he told me it was Baldwin. I thanked him, as I was losing the connection.
After that, I did some research. Apparently, eagle totems do not have strong voices, and neither do I. They do, however, have great vision, which I most certainly do. I looked up the name 'Baldwin', and it means 'Brave Friend'.
So there's my story.
