Ever tried to change your spirit animal? This is important sh#t, damnit!
I used to be a bear. A black bear, that's right. But I don't hibernate so well anymore and well, that whole grub eating bark shredding car winder popping routine just isn't ME, nawmean?
Besides, I switched to Diet Pepsi a long time ago (maybe that's when I started rolling to the West Coast?)
I knew I was in search of a new spirit animal, I had the hunger within. Then I realized....
I'm semi-nomadic and have a huge territory about which I roam on a regular basis. I like to mark my patch with stinky urine, hah! Instinctively curious for 'what's round the next bend?' I'm kinda prickly by nature, purring one minute and taking a swipe out of your ass, the next. I am a carnivore :-). I even have a nice tan goddamnit!
dammit dingus,
there you go again putting reality's shoes
upon the imagination's scuttlin' feat.
understanding is only wee, amongst us.
it's inception occurred about 30 minutes
ago upon sudden expansion of wonder:
a spritual big bang,
if you would, and even if you wouldn't.
I did a guided meditation to seek our animal totems, and I found mine was a chipmunk.
I was so embarrassed. A CHIPMUNK!? I almost wanted to make up a different one, but that seemed wrong.
There were only three in our group, and one was the meditation leader. His was - of course - an eagle.
The other woman's was a coyote.
Mine was a chipmunk. Nonetheless, I told what my chipmunk had relayed to me(in short - be playful, and don't worry about others being on the same page as you when it comes to beliefs and places in life).
When I went online later on I looked up Chipmunk as an animal totem and....what the chipmunk told me was nearly identical to what the websites said.
Don't know about no spirit animals or internet tests for 'em, but I'm on my 2nd decade of being coyote. Want a nature name/animal identity or sumthin? Claim it.
zBro' already admitted to having (like yours truly, lol) a "little dick" tonight on another thread. Two admissions in one day, let alone one night, cud be devistating to ones psyche! So, cut the dood some slack, eh? If its appropriate, he'll eventually appologize!!
but there are a few conflicting reports of my spirit animal.
I have a pair of underwear from my college days (delivered by the Valentine's Day underwear fairy) that label me as "Bad Ass" so...looks like I was quite the donkey then...;)
later on, my buddies would cal me 'pussy' cause I always got cold first and would whine like a princess til the tips of my toes were warm again.
others have celebrated and lamented my loner wolf attributes.
so I dunno what my spirit animal is...
maybe...I'm an entirely different animal all together...
Let us know!
