Harming crows is very bad for you. Considered by many uneducated as lowly creatures, harming such creatures is considered as harming the creator himself.
Will you remember the woes of September when the great one returns for his lands. GOD is a spirit and cannot be defeated. Give to to him so you cannot be found in guilt. It is easier for a thread of cotton to pass through a needle eye than a rich devil to enter the kingdom of YAHUAH
I had an odd dream not long ago. I don’t usually remember my dreams very well, but this one stayed clear in my mind. I dreamed that I met a crow and somehow became roommates with that crow. Like, it wasn’t like a pet, we both had our own lives and did our own thing, we just lived in the same room. We treated each other pretty much as I would treat any friend, though she didn’t really ‘speak’, she vocalized as any normal crow would (though not in the loud ‘caw’s you would normally hear, but in a quieter, softer tone they typically use for family). After some time, she made a nest and suddenly there were three fledglings. But not long after that, she fell ill. I took her to a vet, but they couldn’t do anything to help her. We said out good-byes and she made me promise to look after her children. I didn’t want to leave her, so I held her until she succumbed to her illness. I went to her children to tell them what had happened and that I would be taking care of them now. They seemed sad, but okay with it. Not long after that, I woke up, still feeling the pain of loss.
Would this be a dream of a spirit animal? Does it have any meaning? Am I supposed to do something? I don’t know much about spirit animals and I mostly just assumed it was a dream born from my love of crows and all the research I had been doing on them. Though, it’s a little unusual I would have a dream like that, since I normally hate that sort of narrative (and there were no dragons, most of my dreams involve dragons). I just don’t know.
As a side note, I took the test and it said my spirit animal is the owl. It also said I may also be connected with the crow and/or the snake. Interestingly, I’ve always had an obsession with snakes ever since I was a child, and owls are my second favorite birds, after crows. Not sure if that means anything.
Ok I’ve been having weird things happen to me! And I want to ask some experts (you guys!), what is going on with me? I went to the zoo recently, and me and my family went to the Wolf part of the zoo and the people who work there told us that they had only 2 wolves. Which we saw the 2 relaxing by each other in the sun, but for some weird reason I saw a 3rd wolf! I asked my mom “do you see that wolf in the shade sitting there?” My mom looked at me weirdly. She thought I was crazy, because she didn’t see it and I even pointed where it was, and the rest of my family said I was crazy. I was so mad! Then again at the zoo I was waiting for my younger sister and brother to get out of the bathroom,I realized that the same wolf was standing beside me! I reached out and touched it. My dad asked what I was doing and I told him “petting the wolf!” He told me there was no wolf, and I said yeah there is! The wolf was very kind, it seemed like it wanted me to follow it so I followed it when I was bored. It lead me to an old tree. I was confused, why did it lead me there?
spirit animals are mysterious. they can only be seen by you and you only. i don’t fully understand why spirit animals do what they do
Ok! Thank you! I wanted somebody’s opinion on it, and they are mysterious! Thanks again!
Me and my cousin Ben are wildly related to wolfs and it sounds like this wolf was a spirit send to bring you good look the tree is related to commitment and strength and is there to show you your true path, have you been offered a life changing opertunity then you should take it with open arms as that is your true destiny
The only reason sprit animals are so mysterious is because if you see a animal and others don’t that means that animal is you spirit animal
In your quiz I get OWL. But I feel that my spirit animal is FOX.
When I was younger I was afraid of foxes because of rabies and now I simply adore them.
I don’t know why, but suddenly I was really beginning to attract to foxes. They are beautiful and special.
Same for me with Wolves! I feared them now I can’t resists saying ‘Aw’ to it! I feel mine is a wolf, but I agree with you. Foxes are adorable!
It is very useful to my study
I’ve taken several of quizzes and I always get an Owl. I’ve read some articles here in this website. I have this feeling that it’s impossible for me to have an owl as my spirit animal…Owls are cool but I’m not that intelligent for them to choose me. I’ve been thinking since I read on how to find my spirit animal. I’ve never seen an owl in my entire life. Owls have big eyes and I have this Jack Skellington doll and he has big black eyes and I have watched the movie “big eyes” and I have watched the korean telenovela “The Heirs” where there is an owl doll and when I went to a furniture shop I saw owl designed candle holders, now that I think of it, maybe those are symbols? Is it calling me?
The owl , you may not be the smartest but you shall become if you follow the owls saying, intelligence is not smartness but to make the correct choices you are doing fine do not let people tell you otherwise you was chosen for a reason
I am a pack leader forever. The wolf has chosen me. I have howled in the night and they responded it was amazing they chose me.
As a beta I have seen the wolfs and my Alfa Ben has lived with them and grown and adapted to their abilities he has told me story’s of how wolfs reply back to people it is a good look charm it a message that you are a pack leader the wolfs may accept you but to be a true leader you must be willing to die and make choices for your pack, can you do that once you accept your fair the wolfs will exempt you! Be strong and follow your spirit and joy and happiness will come to you!
Actually wolves only howl so other wolves will get out of their territory and to call for a mate. So it doesn’t mean that they chose you.
Every time I close my eye’s and ask for my spirit animal I always get the image of a rabbit. Rabbits are tactful, avoiding conflict whenever possible, have heightened awareness and are full of life and fertile untapped energy. The also burrow tunnels giving them a deep understanding and connection to the earth. They’re elementally tied to the land and the sky.
So you meditated? Because I really want to see my wolf spirit! I try but I can’t! How’d you do it?
You are not excepting your destiny plus you are trying to hard focus on your path and it shall come as support and guidance
You can imagine walk on a path in a forest. In that forest you will see a spirit animal. There will probably be more than one spirit animal.
Mine isn’t here one of my Spirit Animals is a Shark.
Patience is key it will come when you are ready
hiya,My name is garima and I reside in India.I was actually unaware of this animal totem and spirit animals.since childhood I always dream of snakes .there are many many actually innumerable dreams on snake..I would mention my most excellent dream with snake,I saw I was wandering in some lone wood.It was dense.But suddenly saw an abandone Shiva linga covered with grasses and leaves ,I crossed by it .Then came an autorickshaw who was eager to take me home.Then I saw a baby snake died under its wheels and a great-great say about 7 feet tal five headed snake came infront us and directed me to take its baby and keep it under shiva linga.Saying so the Snake deity (may be) dissappeared and i did that accordingly.when I bowed in to pray to Shiva suddenly the five headed Snake arouse and it was with its five hoods blessing me by putting it like covered umbrellla onto my head..I was so petrified ..Then I started worshipping Silver Snake as a form of deity and asked for protection always.it was the day we call it naag panchami(worshipping day of snake God)I prayed for protection as I was having this though continuously “that ask Him for your boyfrnds protection”..The very next day my boyfrnd went to some place .he was sitting on chair and underneath the chair was ahuge snake coiling up the legs..but he wasnot aware later when he went away suddenly his frnd called him up and said that “we saw a huge snake underneath where you were seating and raised hood to 6 ft but it tured out towards the window and went away”..they told that he was blessed actually otherwise its a dangerous snake one thrashing of its tail can cause rottening of that particular part of the body…
Everyone must repsect their power animals and worship them ..
I often find myself in tune with Hawks and watching them but my dreams it’s always an eagle.
It could be that you are drawn to a mix of the two. In Austraila, there is a bird commonly referred to as an Eaglehawk. An eagle with the coloring and features of a hawk.
But now someone help me please. I have had many a same dream and they all involve the honey badger treading carefully behind me but staying close enough to protect me. What does this mean?
