Spirit animals have been guiding humanity for thousands of years, appearing in dreams, meditations, and moments of need. But what exactly is a spirit animal, and how can you connect with yours?

What is a Spirit Animal?

A spirit animal is a spiritual guide that takes the form of an animal. They offer wisdom, protection, and insight into our lives. Unlike totems, which are often inherited or chosen, spirit animals choose us based on what we need to learn or the challenges we face.
