Since ancient times, totem animals have been revered as faithful companions human life from the moment of the birth of the spark of existence until its extinction. Absolutely everyone has a patron who defines him life path and character traits, and also accompanies from the beginning to the end of life. In ancient times, people worshiped their totemic representatives and revered them in every possible way. Read on to find out how to find out your totem in our article.

How does a person meet his spirit animal?

When a child is born, he is accompanied by energy from the subtle worlds. This energy plays the role of the child’s guardian, and when he grows up, he bestows on the child the characteristics of morals, talent and preferences.

In a family where a child grows up in harmony and is well brought up by his parents, the spirit of his patron will have a beneficial effect on the child. You should not reprimand a child if he wants to adopt a kitten or dog in the house. Most likely, the desire to get closer to the animal is influenced by the totem.

The totem patrons of a person can change in the course of life, but the main totem influences the ward to a greater extent. Character depends on it emotional sphere and even a person's appearance. Thus, people whose appearance is similar to representatives of the animal world (for example, wolves or foxes) may have similar patrons.

Why does a person need a totem?

IN modern world attention is not deservedly paid to totem animals. People have lost faith in what their ancestors believed. This is a big mistake, since knowing your totem animal has many advantages.

Thus, the definition of a totem allows you to find the right solution in a difficult situation according to the characteristics of the patron, find a soul mate under the same protection and be clearly aware of your own strengths and weaknesses.

Worshiping an animal will allow you to withdraw some of the energy that it bestows on its followers. We already wrote about this when we talked about the Slavic totem horoscope.

Features of totem animals

For a human being, totem animals are bundles of energy that guarantee protection and energy balance for a person. The peculiarity of such creatures is that they bestow on humans the same qualities that they themselves possess. Let's give a few examples.

The wolf is a totem animal with great strength, belligerence and tenacity. Such creatures are predominantly nocturnal and draw energy from the moon. They have great potential for developing paranormal abilities.

The elephant is a huge, powerful animal. The calmness and wisdom of an elephant is often replaced by incredible aggression in an angry state, which leads to destruction. The ability to destroy everything in your path in anger often turns into a disaster for those around you.

The eagle is a bird that watches everything that happens from above. People endowed with this totem are able to reason coldly and consider the situation from different positions. This ability helps them make the right decision, regardless of their own desires.

Thus, based on the characteristics of representatives of the animal world, you can find your patron. It is important to draw a parallel between the similarities and differences between beings from the subtle and material worlds.

Does a person have one totem or more?

A person does not necessarily have to have one totem. Each person is multifaceted and does not have a single “face,” which affects the totem animals that they “look after.” Here are examples of possible options:

Often a person has only one totem animal, which completely covers the personality of the ward. In this case, a person feels maximum harmony.

Two totems can be in the form of a personal and ordinary totem. The first type pays attention exclusively to the person himself, energetically feeding him, while the ordinary type takes care of all members of the family.

Two personal totems can argue with each other, and this will affect their ward: the personality will be extremely ambiguous and emotionally unstable in life. It will be difficult for such a person to find his calling, since his spiritual impulses will be directed in different directions.

Areas of life can be protected by different totem animals. For example, careerists have punctuality and great loyalty to work thanks to the totem in the form of a dog. IN love relationships The totem can be a windy, fickle dragonfly.

There are special practices that will help you figure out how to recognize your totem animal. You can deal with this issue yourself, although it is necessary to take into account not only the personal qualities of the ward (or your own, if you are looking for a totem for yourself), but also the characteristics of the totem animal. For example, while one cat may be playful and frivolous, another is calm and serious.

How to find out your totem?

There are several options for how to find out your totem. Here is a list of possible options:

1. Listen to the call of your soul. Think about which representatives of the animal world you are partial to. A visit to the zoo can help with this issue.
2. Familiarize yourself with special calendars that determine adherence to a particular totem according to the date of birth.
3. Take special tests, as a result of which you will instantly recognize your totem.
4. Pay attention to your dreams. Often in dreams a person sees something that is of great importance on an energetic level, and your totem may also visit you.
5. Take a course of meditation, as a result of which your totem will contact you.
6. Listen to the comments of your family and friends. Perhaps they say that you are cunning like a fox or calm like a boa constrictor.

Find out the totem through meditation

You can recognize your totem animal by your horoscope and date of birth. Of course, there are such methods, and we will talk about them below. But one of the most reliable means of finally meeting a patron is meditation.

Yes, it’s not very easy, and not everyone succeeds on the first try. But we will still tell you about this method. So, in order to “get to know” your patron, you should choose a convenient place and time.

If you are doing this at home, then the room needs to be prepared:

dim the lights;

Light candles;

turn on appropriate music.

After this, take a position that is comfortable for you. It is not necessary to sit cross-legged, the point is to make it really comfortable for you. If you want, you can even lie down, because it doesn’t matter at all how the body is positioned, the main role is assigned to the mind and spirit.

Close your eyes, relax as much as possible.

Imagine a point five centimeters from your forehead. Concentrate on it. It needs to be fully felt, detailed, felt and seen.

As soon as this happens, begin to “move” this point away from you. Don't lose detail, keep feeling it.

As soon as the point is at some distance from you, think about your totem. You don’t know who he is yet, you only know that he’s an animal. Don't imagine anything specific, just look at the point, watch it. It will change - take on the appearance of your totem.

If you don't succeed the first time, don't be upset. Keep meditating. In the end, this way you will definitely recognize your totem animal.

Sleep as a means of attracting a patron animal

Sleep helps a person to be transported to the world of energy and subtle matter that surrounds a person in everyday life. In the sleeping state, we can become closer to the spirits and energy that have the form closest to us. Therefore, the meeting of a totem and its ward in a dream can take place due to the fact that in a sleeping state we are closer to the subtle worlds than in a waking state.

In order to see your totem in a dream, you need to prepare a week in advance. To do this, you need to refrain from eating meat, avoid stress and situations that require increased attention, which can lead you astray from your task. Mentally connect with the animal daily and feel the desire to meet it.

Choose a suitable evening and begin the process of immersion in subtle worlds. Lie down on the bed and relax: relax all the muscles in your body one by one. Monitor your breathing and try to avoid any movement, but if you need to move, do so and continue the practice immediately.

Lying on your bed, imagine yourself on dry grass in a lonely field, feel the breeze blowing and the slight tickling of the blades of grass. Next, your imagination will fill in the missing elements: houses, stones, trees, clouds... Ultimately, you will feel the presence of your guest. Having looked at its blurry silhouette, try to fix it in your memory and reproduce it while you are awake.

It is not at all necessary to enter a state of meditation in order to contact your totem. In a normal dream, patrons also often visit their charges.

Find out your totem by date of birth

There are several ways to find out the totem by date of birth. Actually, you will need the date and month and year of birth. We will present both options.

Summon Spirit Animal

Summon Spirit Animal

Once you identify your spirit animal, it is important to immediately establish a strong working relationship with it. This will let you know what it can and cannot do for you. This will help you to access it and those archetypal energies that work through it for your personal purposes.

Start with an animal meditation. Perform simple visualizations, imagine how it stands in front of you or approaches you. Give him the opportunity to mentally talk to you. When the animal appears in your mind's eye, allow it to tell you information about itself. Let it tell you how it can help you in various fields of your life. Don't worry that all this will happen only in your imagination. The more attention you pay to this, the more confident the invitation to communicate will be and the more real the connection with its essence.

Visualize the animal merging with you. Do a meditation during which you see yourself in the form of this animal. The exercises in the next chapter will help you do this. If any situations arise at work or at home in which you know you will need the energy of your animal, wait five minutes before connecting to the circumstances to feel your totem come to life within you. Feel the strength and vibration of its energies. Remember that they will help you cope with the situation as successfully as possible. As a result, you will see how the situation changes for the better.

As you become more familiar with your spirit animal and can become aware of its energies around and within you, you can begin to call it to you. To do this, you can use music, ritual chants and drumming. The rhythm of the tambourine and ritual chants represent effective means, which can assist in moving consciousness and opening the door to the world of spirits.

Create songs and chants dedicated to your totem. They don't have to be complicated. Two or three simple, melodic and repeated lines can be a wonderful way to establish contact with him. If there is already a simple song or chant that you know, then change the words so that they relate to your totem. During meditation, you can ask your totem to teach you prayer songs with which you can call it faster.

One of the most effective chants I use to communicate with all my spirit animals was based on a passage from a Renaissance song. I use three lines of refrain as an address to my spirit animal. This chant not only glorifies the animal, but also protects you and energizes you.

The excerpt is called "Riu Chiu" ("Riu Chiu"). It is taken from a work by an unknown 16th-century Spanish musician. This is one of the most frequently performed excerpts from Renaissance works heard at Christmas. Like most of the detailed passages, there are ecclesiastical and secular versions.

Each of the three lines of the refrain contains twelve syllables. The number "three" is a symbol of creation. The number twelve also has its own mystical meaning associated with the twelve signs of the zodiac, the twelve months of the year, etc. These numbers give the chant a creative rhythm. Those who study numerology are well aware of the importance of all this. (If you like, you can refer to my earlier book called Sacred Sounds, which reveals the essence of rhythm and provides special methods for writing magical and mystical chants and prayers.)

The text of this passage is related to the mystery of the relationship between predator and prey, which was already discussed earlier in this book. The third line I changed indicates that divine powers appear to the world in the form of certain animals and natural phenomena.

"Riu Chiu"

Riu Riu Chiu. La guardo ribera. (Riu Riu Chiu. Who stands guard by the river.)

Dios guardo el lobo de nuestra cordera. (God is on guard / does not allow the wolf to come to our sheep.)

In my adaptation I do not use the word "dios" in the third line. Instead, I insert the name of the animal to which I am addressing. Since this passage is Spanish, I use Spanish animal names. Thus, I emphasize the idea that God or divine power appears to the world in the form of an animal, and it is the energy of the animal that prevents the wolf from approaching the sheep. It is the animal that activates those energies that maintain balance in the magic of the relationship between predator and prey. For example: “Halcon guardo el lobo de nuestra cordera” (“The falcon stands guard / does not let the wolf near our sheep”).

The animal is a form of manifestation of the divine principle. If I communicate with several animals, then I repeat this chant, each time replacing the name of the animal. As a rule, I repeat this chant three times for each animal, observing the magical rhythm of the number “three”. Experiment with this. Determine what suits you best. This passage is very powerful, and I have found that it is effective even when speaking to animals with whom I usually do not interact in any way.

The notes for this passage are given at the end of this chapter. If you can play the piano or other musical instrument, then you can play and sing it using the notes given below. I also recommend that you visit your local library, a specialized music library educational institution or even go to a music store where you can find Renaissance works and pick up a recording of the song. Listening to a professional sing will help you learn the tune much faster. Most libraries, if they don't have this entry, can help you find it.

The effort put into finding and learning this chant will be duly rewarded, as this work has great power. When performing it, you can also use tambourines and rattles, which will give even better results.

A regular Spanish-English dictionary will help you find the Spanish animal names you need. Some titles may not fit well, so you'll need to get creative. For example, in Spanish an owl is called lechuza, which is not a good substitute for "Dios." I simply shortened it by dropping the last vowel, so that instead of three syllables, the word lechuza began to have two - lechuz. The meaning hasn't changed.

Below are some examples.

Deer – venado, ciervo (masc.).

Hawk – halcon.

Eagle – aguilla.
