What is a spirit or totem animal?
These are animal spirits on a higher level of existence that have chosen to help us link the spiritual with the physical. They help empower, protect and heal us. a totem or power animal comes to us to let us know they are here to help us. Sometimes they come to us in times of need, when we may be having difficulties in life. They give us their strength. They teach us. If you begin to see a certain animal frequently, it is usually a power animal for you. For example, Wolf came to me years ago when my little dog, Tiffy, passed into spirit. Tiffy and I were very bonded. And the only thing that comforted me was listening to an audio tape of wolf howls. Then a friend (not knowing about this) sent me a necklace with a wolf on it. Then I received a photo of a beautiful black wolf named Thoren. The wolf spirit comforted me and gave me strength.
