Meaning?.....

[Tulippaw]

Ok, so I think a messager spirit just came into my life. I was reading a book out side just as the moon was appearing, and this deer came out into the field outside of my house. I continued reading, but was watching it. I decided to try and stay out longer than the deer. We both stayed out for a long time, and it seemed like we would tie. Then, when I looked up again, it was gone. I interperated this as meaning that though being stubborn is a good thing, backing down is sometimes fine too. It's good that it did leave, because I was freezing. Now that I think about this, maybe that's what it meant. What are your thoughts?

I think it was just a tough minded deer that wasn't afraid of you because you weren't moving much, or moving at her.

[Tulippaw]

Well, maybe. I'm starting to see messages in everything, so... yeah.

It could be your spirit animal. Who knows. I've been very close to a lot of deer. It isan't uncommon to not notice you and then finally notice you and take off. {Thats what happend to me}


Anyway you could try to meditate to see what your animal is. Close your eyes and try to clear your mind. Focus on your breathng and count backwards from 50. Then ask you spirit animal to reveal it's self.

I still didn't find mine. But It's hard to clear my mind. So I'm still trying.


My first image was fish. But I'm not a fish and hate fish. {I love to eat them though} XDXDXD. So I'm still trying and I keep see images of diffrent animals. If anyone couuld help me that would be great.

Just because you hate an animal doesn't mean you won't get it as your guide. And asking it to reveal itself is pointless. Trust me, I would know.

You have to wait for it to reveal itself, and reveal its name.

I read that you haft to meditate and that you haft to name it. I just found mine. Read my thread.

[Redstorm]

No, you do //not// name it your self. Ever.

Finding your animal takes time, when it reveals it's name may take even more time.

[Tulippaw]

Hmmm... Is it bad then that I found mine the first day I started really looking? And that it revealed its name that day too? And don't say it is because I might possibly eat your face off. Just saying.

No, it comes at different points in people lives. I think most of us failed for a while. It took me at least a week to find Mem, and then another couple days to learn her name. :3

[Tulippaw]

I guess I was just lucky then.

[Foxy]

Mine took me two whole days. But I can't seem to find it again. *sigh*. So I'm going to keep trying to find it again. It came to me once and dissapeard. OH well. And I read that you had to name it. I wasn't compelty sure. XD.

-eye twitch-

I'm doing everything I can not to raid your spirit world and steal your guide.....

Now I have to go meditate....Even thought Oakspirit is completely right..

[Foxy]

I found mine, but now that I've been searching for it again it won't reveal itself to me and I can't find out the name.


*Sigh*


Now I meditate every day and night to try to find it. I don't want to over do it though. Becaue I'm afraid it won't come to me.


Here Redstorm take a look at this site. It may help you a little.


.:How to find your Animal totem:.

That site sure helped me.

Okay. Firstly, it might've just been a deer. Second, it's true that standing your ground is a good thing, but sometimes it's appropriate to save your own skin rather than intimidate an adversary. I dont think it's much of a meaning, but feel free to believe what you wish.
