Spirit animal: The Dolphin

The dolphin — this is so me! The dolphin spirit animal represents harmony and balance. Dolphins are both highly intelligent and closely in tune with their instincts, striking a balance between the two states. Dolphins are also a symbol of protection and of resurrection. Their playful nature is a reminder that everyone needs to approach life with humor and joy. People who identify with the dolphin totem are usually peaceful and gentle, but with a deep inner strength.

Spirit Animal: The Turtle

My spirit animal is the Turtle. I really couldn’t see it, but closer examination (and three times getting the same results!), I learned the turtle symbolism is characterized by an association between the Earth and Water and symbols of grounded-ness, patience and the fluid nature of emotions. Family and friends often call me “The voice of reason” because of my ability to stay grounded even in moments of chaos. Everybody recalls the story of the Tortoise and the Hare…slowing down, pacing yourself, demonstrating determination and patience. Yes, I’d have to agree; my spirit animal is the Turtle.
