Snake spirit animals, symbols for healing
The snake is close to earth energies and represents life force. Since it’s a reptile, the snake spirit animal is reminiscent of unconscious drives and primal instincts. When the snake spirit animal shows up, pay attention to how you use your energy, and where you draw it from.
If you see the snake as your spirit or power animal, be sensitive to your healing abilities towards yourself or others. Cultivate sources of energy and support, especially as they relate to the earth and nature.
In ancient traditions as well as modern times, snakes are symbols of healing powers and opportunities. In the Greek mythology, Aesclepius, the god of medicine, is featured with two snakes climbing up a rod, the symbol of what is known today as the Caduceus.
“Use your enemy’s hand to catch a snake”

The snake and spiritual guidance
The snake can symbolize spiritual guidance. The presence of the snake in your life often means that you are in a period of transition and it points to ways promote your personal growth.
Snake could appear as a spirit animal when you are stepping into the unknown and need support to move forward. This animal is typically close to the ground and can remind you of staying grounded as you move through changes.
Dream interpretation of snakes
When a snake appears in your dreams, it most likely acts as an animal spirit guide inviting you to look at important facts or dynamics that are impacting your life. Snakes featured in dreams often leaves a strong impression on the dreamer: Such dreams tend to be frightening or disturbing because they call on strong unconscious energy.
Whether the snake spirit animal featured in your dream leaves a positive or negative impression, its presence should be considered as an invitation to look at positive changes and transformation.
The dark side of snakes in dreams
When the snake appears in your dream leaves you with a negative feeling, make sure you consider positive meanings as well. The snake spirit animal often appears in dreams as a warning about personal struggles and the need to pay attention to things or events that are escaping your field of awareness.
For instance, when you dream of being bitten or attacked by a snake, it could mean that you need to be careful about important matters you’ve been ignoring so far. If the spirit animal featured in your dream in the shape of a snake is chasing you, it may represent a challenging situation or relationship that you have been avoiding and is pushing you around.
The bottom line is that a dream featuring a snake invites you to check what in your life is “poisonous” and to look at important matters before they sneak up on you and create more damage or difficulty.
Meditation to connect with your snake spirit animal
Take a deep breath in and breathe out. Close your eyes and let yourself relax into a peaceful state. Listen to the sound of your own breath, and allow all other distractions to drift away.
Imagine yourself standing in the middle of a lush green forest. Feel your feet firmly planted on the ground, and sense the warmth of the sun beaming down from above. Look around and find a tall, strong tree with its roots deeply embedded in the soil. This is a sacred tree; it holds great wisdom for you today if you are willing to listen closely.
Feel your body connect with this ancient tree; feel how it radiates strength and stability as you draw closer to it. Now, look up at its branches as they twist and turn up towards the sky like an ever-changing tapestry. Amongst its leaves, you spot something glistening – it’s a snake! The sun reflects off its smooth scales, creating dazzling patterns that seem almost magical in nature.
Welcome this snake spirit animal, for it comes bearing important messages of transformation and awareness of what lies in the shadows. Listen to what the snake has to say, and find courage within its silent wisdom. As you observe this part of yourself, let its teachings guide you toward new beginnings and a greater understanding of your own inner power.
Looking more closely at the snake and its graceful movements, you feel deeply connected to its energy. Allow your awareness to travel through each scale one by one, noticing any area of potential growth or transformation.
The snake spirit animal stands for ancient wisdom and creative power; it symbolizes death and rebirth, going beyond boundaries and limitations. It encourages you to be more aware of your innermost thoughts and feelings and what lies beneath the conscious level of your being. The snake is also a representation of healing – both physical and emotional.
Use this moment to allow yourself to be guided by the power of this spirit animal. Feel how it can shift the energy in your body; notice any areas that feel heavy or stuck, allowing the serpent’s energy to move through you and help release any tension or resistance.
Feel the grounding energy it brings, connecting you with your inner wisdom and strength. Now is the time for self-reflection – take note of anything that comes up during this meditation, whether a thought or an emotion – and explore these feelings further if need be.
As you bring this meditation to a close, feel your feet firmly rooted to the ground, and imagine a wave of energy undulating through you from your feet all the way up to the top of your head. Notice any release or expansion that comes with this wave, and take some time to just be present in this moment.
Thanks to the snake spirit animal for its wise teachings, and acknowledge all you have learned. When you are ready, slowly open your eyes. You feel refreshed and connected to the wisdom of the snake within yourself as you take this knowledge with you into your day.
An inspiring message from your spirit animal
Hear my silent whisper,
As I slither and glide,
I am the spirit of transformation,
The serpent by your side.
From the depths of the earth,
I rise to guide your way,
Through the trials and tribulations,
Of each and every day.
With my venom,
I bring healing,
And the power to let go,
Of the old and the worn,
And to welcome the new.
With my scales,
I remind you,
To trust in your own strength,
And to face your fears head-on,
With courage at length.
So heed my call, dear life traveler,
And allow me to guide,
Through the journey of self-discovery,
And to help you rise inside.

I wian want a snake ???? bite Destiny Holbird when she’s sleeping not hitting me because Destiny H is mean as a Devil she causes trouble alot because she has seizures and anger issues she does have anger problems and seizure problem.
A couple days ago I was at an appt with my crystal/energy healer and I became very relaxed. I closed my eyes and started seeing these flashing yellow and black Colors. I was in a sort of trance and a snake and a horse both popped into my mind. I asked my pendulum if these are my spirit animals and it said yes. I just read this and it’s spot on. Very excited to finally know who my spirit animals are. Thank you for the explanations.

My wife thinks I have bad energy working against me.

I want out back to check up on her and the burning sage was over welming and I went back in almost as soon as I turned my back a black snake appeared and crossed her path while she was doing her thing… she yeld and I came running but the snake disappeared I never saw it..
I went back in the house and instantly fell in to a deep sleep mid day and (I never nap) she tried to wake me several time but I was sleeping very deep a few hrs go by before a wake dizzy and weak I refused dinner and fell back to sleep she wakes me with brownies I refuse (I love brownies)…. I find my self disoriented and in pain body acks it take a few more hrs to pull my self together no I’m wide awake but still in pain she thinks it’s all bad I’m a big strong guy and she very worried about how weak I am right now… any ideas please help
Pray
your wife is the one with the bad energy. she should not be messing around she is bringing in stuff she does not know how to control. cleanse crystals in sea water salt water or full moon. so always be aware you sleeping etc. is a sign do not mess around get help from people who know what they are doing. it sounds to me that your wife has got attachments to herself she need healing. also who has been putting these ideas into her head. there are healers out there, but always go on instinct. also you said you have 3 kids, it sounds like your worried about the family. do not worry about the chain breaking that means your not meant to connect . it is like I will wear my crystals at times the chain can break or it just undoes this means it is not required anymore . the snake means your wife needs to get grounded to mother earth. she need to sit outside no shoes feet to earth and deep breath meditate, connect with nature be unafraid. I hope you get help soon.
No one has “bad” energy. You can block it with emotion, like love and light by focusing on fear, but its to grown and learn from dawg. Been working on energy healing 30 years now, all the ritual stuff is back in the day and not needed to have a nice strong flow and face/dissolve what we call bad, by allowing instead of resisting, turns that fear and other emotion momentum into power, connecting with life force energy, yo. in Tucson but i do distance sessions.. text if u like (520) 971-4124 little assistance.
Twice in one day a black rat snake has been on my front stoop right in front of door..I’m not scared of snakes see them in my flower beds but right at front door twice seems like a message????
this might sound crazy but i keep having dreams im bitten by a green and black venomous snake, it hurts and you can see the venom pulsing thru the vein it went into, the two holes the fangs left in me quickly disappear and i do not die or feel fear, what stands out to me, is that my ex (currently my best friend) doesnt seem to care and is too busy to take me to a dr. im not sure what the dreams mean, in theory i think it might mean that i am going to heal quickly like the wounds from the bite but first i have to let go, also maybe that he doesnt care about me the way i care about him,the venom in my veins i think represents the toxic way i tnink of myself and my lack of ability to self love. i think the snake isnt fear for me, i love snakes, i think the snake itself is my symbol that i need to let go. or of a change of some sort.
this post was extremely helpful to me and if anyone has any ideas please feel free to share
I hate this app because I get things that im alergict to and I dont care if I spelled wrong.
In the past two weeks I have encountered 3 snakes. Two black snakes and one ring neck snake. One was one the road to my house, one was in my garage (my husband removed it) and the other perched himself on the brick ledge of my front porch. Facing the door mind you and all stretched out and contented ( my husband also removed him as I am am terrified of snakes). I have lived in this house for two years and have never seen one snake and now I see one weekly. I feel like I am missing a message, and I am not sure it’s one I want. Like I said I am terrified of snakes. I would never harm one I just don’t want to be around any.
Hi Liz, I live in Florida now (used to be in Upstate NY) and see a lot of snakes. However, I have not seen any venomous snakes here because I have Black Racers and Blue Indigo snakes on my property. They kill venomous snakes. They are harmless to humans and will run away from you rather quickly. It’s good to have these types of snakes around so I’m glad you didn’t kill them (if they were in fact from that genus of snake.) If they are Cottonmouths (Water Moccasin) then they need to be killed/removed as they are deadly and aggressive. I don’t know about the ring neck snake. I’m not familiar but we also have Rat snakes that can be very large. Again they are a helpful snake so we preserve their life, which in turn probably saves our life. People are afraid of the unknown. Anything that crawls on the ground is scarey I know. Try to educate yourself about the different snakes you see (take pictures and study them) and this may help you with your anxiety level. It’s always good to know who you’re dealing with – whether it’s a mouse or a Grizzly bear because only then can you act appropriately and save yourself some grief. :-)
I dreamt of me standing and 2 other people on there knees digging in dirt. I seen a long very thin black shiny snake in the dirt moving toward me and it’s head slithered up from the dirt and latched on to my lower left leg. It wouldn’t let go. One of the person’s that were there tried to get it off me but it wouldn’t let go. It finally released its mouth from me and there were 4 holes that looked like a huge snake bit me instead of the little one. What does this mean.
