If you wonder “How can I connect with my Spirit Animal?” there are many ways you can try.
Meditation
A great way of connecting to your spirit animal is through meditation.
If you are beginning your spiritual journey, learning meditation techniques is a great way to develop your connection to the spiritual world. It can be difficult.
The modern world means that we are constantly being distracted by technology and social media.
However, with time you will be able to fully disconnect from the material world and enter the spiritual world.
An important part of this process is opening up your third eye.
This is the connection between the human psyche and the spiritual world and by opening up our third eye we can communicate to spirits.
With meditation, we can open our minds up to new experiences. Our animal spirit guides will appear to us in this way and communicate with us.
When you are meditating, ask your spirit animal to appear to you. They might show you a sign or appear fully in your mind.
We are a part of nature and should live in balance within it. We should all work together to create the best world, living in harmony and peace.
Connect with Nature
Connecting with nature can be hard in the modern world. A lot of us live in busy urban areas and barely see a tree when we leave the house.
We work on computers in offices in cities. The natural world is something so distant to so many of us.
It doesn’t have to be that way, and we have opportunities to reconnect with nature. Even if we live in a city, there are parks and places we can go that are blooming with life.
Try and get out into the countryside if you can!
Walking in nature is a brilliant time for you to meet and connect with your spirit animal and have a connection with them.
When we reconnect with planet earth we are deepening the bond that we have with our spirit animal.
How to find the messages brought by Spirit Animal Guides
When we meet an animal in our life’s journey, we are meeting a teacher who is asking us to consider some new aspect of our current situation.
To help you discover on your own what an animal visitor might be saying to you, here are a few questions to ask yourself about the animal you’ve encountered. Grab a pen and notebook and follow these steps:
- Make simple observations about the animal’s design. How does this animal use its feet? Does it even have feet? Does it have eight feet? What does this animal eat? Does it hunt, forage, or graze? What element is this animal associated with? Does it live in water? Air? Dirt? Does it have fur? Scales? Write a list of obvious statements -really obvious- things like “it has wings” or “it weaves a web”.
- Make a list of all the pop-culture knowledge you have about the animal. Is it famous like Mickey Mouse? Does it have a significant feature or signature attribute like spider’s infinite thread and weaving or whales subsonic singing, or bat’s sonar vision? What is this animal most known for? Does she bury nuts? Hibernate? Totally transform into another creature entirely? All these forms of expression are telling you something very literal.
- Using the lists above, ask yourself how the energy of those descriptions and features apply to some aspect of your life at this time. How is the quality of these attributes relevant to an issue at hand? Are you hibernating? Are you weaving a web of intrigue or connections? Or have you woven yourself into a sticky situation? Is someone burrowing into your space? Is it time to take flight and lift up to higher ground? Or maybe it’s time to land…?
Connect and work with Spirit Animals
To connect and work with Spirit Animals is an exercise in free association.
You may feel reluctant to engage in this activity because it feels like you are “just making it up.” But how else can the animals reach you if you do not open your imagination to them?
The ability to freely associate ideas, images, and messages is the skills that Shaman’s learn. You can learn them too. Empower your imagination and commune with nature with simple observations. Then apply those observations to a situation in your life.
Extrapolate, personify, and let your imagination roam free.
Working with Spirit Animal is the art of conversation and creative connection. What energy is needed in your life at this time? Has the Hawk come with its talons? Or is the mouse hiding in the walls?
