It’s amazing isn’t it? I too, have always had a special place in my heart for all animals. Ever since I was a kid I wanted to be an animal doctor, I used to bug my Mom about it all the time :) But alas, I was sidetracked by computers when I was in my teens and ended up being a
slave to the IT industry. Then a crow came banging on my window about 2 weeks ago with a clear message, time for change. So now I find myself with a new energy to find out as much as I can about the messages that all nature sends us on a daily basis. The feeling is very positive, and is wonderful because as I continue my research and meditation im finding that all the negative energies that have surrounded me for so many miserable years, is gone. It’s just gone. Maybe you have always had this special gift, you have just awakened to it. I will end this as I started.

Lately, I’ve been seeing a lot of animals, practically every time I go outside now these days which didn’t happen before. Today I saw a black chickadee and squirrel. Yesterday was a bunny rabbit. The day before was a red cardinal. Other animals include, toads, dragon fly, birds (but I don’t know what type), ducks, deer, turkey, and butterflies off the top of my head…oh, and cats and dogs as well. Curious as to why this may be….whether it’s because I’ve thought more about animals and hoped they would be okay with the storms lately from global warming, feeding the birds lately, trying to understand the language of birds or their moods based on their tone of verbal communication, etc… I’ve always had a connection with animals but I haven’t always had some animal around me whenever I step outside like I have recently.
I’m sorry but I would like to know something about my spirit animal which is not on your website. Can you help me? It is the Serval.
Thank you.
I’m definitely wolf and I am
I don’t see octopus, and I’m vastly intrigued as to what this recent spirit can mean for me. Is it normal to have multiple consistent spirit animals?
