When the hummingbird shows up in your life, it may be an invitation to flex you path, perhaps even bending backward or forward, in order to accommodate life’s circumstances. You may be required to adapt to a situation that is a bit more demanding than usual. The wisdom carried by this spirit animal emphasizes flexibility and lightness in your approach to the unexpected.
The hummingbird, a power animal indicative of strong sensibility
By association with the hummingbird power animal, you may have already developed a strong adaptability and are typically quick to respond to any demand. You may also have a high sensibility and feel every nuances of emotions or movement in your environment.
Brought to the extreme, this ability may lead you to emotional instability as you shift rapidly from one feeling or mood to another without warning. The hummingbird totem wisdom could challenge you to figure out how to stand strong while being able to move quickly and fly high, whether it’s through your personal or spiritual aspirations.

When facing challenges or an environment plagued by negativity, call on the hummingbird to help you bring a positive outlook on the situation and find your way out with optimism.
The hummingbird totem and the wisdom of accomplishing great feats
Don’t be deceived by the size of this spirit animal: Even if the hummingbird is one of the smallest birds, it can travel great distances. Those who have that bird as totem are characterized by their resiliency and their ability to run great distances tirelessly. Inspired by this totem, you will be inclined to accomplish what seems impossible to most while keeping it light and enjoyable.
The hummingbird is known for burning a lot of energy quickly to keep flying and therefore needs to find sources of food constantly. If you have the hummingbird as a totem, you may benefit from resting often and taking time to feed yourself with enough, whether it’s physically, emotionally or spiritually, to keep going.

Hello
Last year in mexico a hummingbird flied over the head of a few people i was sitting with, to poo in my left eye. Does anyone knows what does it mean?
Once upon a time, many years ago, in the Island of Jamaica, I was standing outdoors, in my yard, with my sight gazing at no fixed, particular object, as far as I can remember, then suddenly a hummingbird flew toward me. For a split second it stopped in my face, and then it flew to my left ear. With its beak inside, almost touching my ear, it made a buzzing, or hissing sound. It hovered there for a second, and then it flew to my right ear, and repeated the same procedure, as if it were doctoring a bunch of bananas. As strange as I found it, I made no attempt to scare it off, or to move away. I guessed I was too shocked to do anything. Still, the strangest thing happened that night, and many nights afterwards. Both of my ears felt as if tens of thousands of battalions of ants were crawling in them, having a tumultuous onslaught. And that constant buzzing, or hissing sound that it initially made, was with me for countless days. I have no clue as to what this could have meant, do you?
I am contemplating two career opportunities, feeling very blessed and frazzled. I need to make a decision by tomorrow and then begin the process of planning and packing for a large move to a new state. I’m sitting on my porch and for the very first time since I hung the feeder months ago, a hummingbird is visiting. I feel so blessed and love the meaning of the hummingbird! I declare: I will make the best decision for my highest good!
I too had an experience with a humming bird I know and believe God sends them as a sign of help is in its way. Like the lady said in her comment, I too was going through financial Times, but I know and believe by Faith this too shall pass!
The hummingbird in my garden alwaysseem to appear in times of problems especially financial , often whn I sitting out there really early with the dog, he comes right up in front of my face and stays for a fe w seconds like he is saying its going to be ok dont stress.
My Mother inlaw who passsed away over 10 yrs ago loved hummingbirds often wonder if ther is a connection/ reincarnation spirit or something
I do feel more assured when I see the humminbird right there almost as if he seeks me out
i have been going thru alot these last couple of weeks i had a death in my house alot of fighting between familys and den i just got laid off my job not to mention i just bought my home and exspectin a baby in oct. im a single mom with no help ..so i was sittin on my porch listen to the neighbors singin and dancing to there christian music and i said god things got to get better for me and a few second later a hummingbird flew up to my feeder which i hung there weeks ago with nuthin in it and it looked at me and flew away ..i said to my self was that my sign from god ? or is this bird tryn to tell me i will be ok ?
I think he was trying to tell you to fill that feeder up, you lazy bitch
Why? What would entice you to attempt to be funny and fail miserably by being an unnecessary dickhead?
I have stressed and a little sad because recently I took on a job as a daycare teacher, which has been an enormous paycut for me. I have been worried about worldly things, trying to meet deadlines, moving and the direction I am taking. I have been meditating, praying and stretching to release the week’s tension. Then I was drawn to go outside as a storm was moving in. And for some reason I was drawn to look at the front yard, and then saw a hummingbird, swiftly flying around a bush. I was happy and filled with love as I saw it as a gift to me since I rarily ever see hummingbirds.
I have been dealing with alot of stress lately and been praying to God…well this morning as I was sitting on my porch looking at pictures I heard a buzzing sound and looked up to see a humming bird in front of me just hovering…it was amazing!! Thank you Lord for that.
This just happened to me. And yes, it was amazing. Feeling overwhelmed with love now.
i think that this test is pretty accurate. it almost describes me perfectly. good job to whoever made this quiz.
I have struggling in my finances in my relationships with my lover family and friends. Today I thought I couldn’t take anymore. I wanted TODAY to be my last day on this earth. The love of my 11yr old daughter had me come on my porch and take a minute to see clearly. I have lived in my home 30 years and have NEVER seen a hummingbird. Today a hummingbird fly on my porch and sar on my plant right in front of me…..I BELIEVE AND I THANK GOD FOR SENDING HER MY WAY….
I recently had a dream of a whole swarm of red and yellow hummingbirds, rather like Crimson Topazes or Fiery Topazes respectively from Venezuela and from Colombia. Many of them were tame and docile and allowed me to pet them. Curious dream. I don’t put a lot of stock in these things though they are intriguing and I tend to shy from trying to find spiritual meaning in these kinds of things as I have an innate Christian shyness towards New Age tweeness. I also have already a rich sense of God’s presence in my life so I don’t need to seek meaning in things that inspire magical thinking. On the other hand I very much agree that all life and all our experiences of life are sacred, even if it is just typing a silly comment as I am doing right now on a silly website such as this one. Oh do, let’s laugh at ourselves a little, shall we?
Today was a spiritual experience for me. As I was watering my flowers, a hummingbird appeared. I commented “how beautiful you are” and the hummingbird came close to my face and stayed for a few seconds. What an amazing experience! This was my second experience with God’s beautiful creation
I understand it is very rare for wild birds to land on humans, so with that in mind today a hummingbird landed on my shoulder and spent maybe a good 7 minutes looking into my eyes, I was amazed this creature gave me this treasured moment, I can’t begin to explain the joyful feelings I experienced, I took 5 selfie’s and pray it happens again in my lifetime.
Wow, that sounds great! You’re blessed. I had something similar last summer. A hummingbird came and sat right next to me on my seat, on the armrest, and sat there for quite a while looking me straight into the eyes! It was magical and beautiful, and I’ll never forget it. I seemed to be saying to me that everything’s ok.
Your experience sounds even more profound with the bird landing on you. Let’s hope they’ll come back to us!
Thank you and too you aswell
