Spirit Animal Allies: A Meditative Exploration: Discover Your Animal Guide
Are you ready to unlock the wild wisdom of the animal kingdom? Let's journey through the mystical veil together, as we discover the power of spirit animals and their profound messages. This episode is a spiritual deep dive, an exploration into the symbolic tapestry of nature's wisest creatures, from the powerful bear to the vibrant pheasant. We will discuss the various aspects of our inner beings, such as animal guides who are powerful allies to self-awareness.
In the heart of this adventure, you will be guided through a soothing meditation, helping to awaken your intuition and manifest your dreams through the ancient language of Sanskrit mantras. As we strengthen our bond with our own spirit animal, the doors to messages, healing and transformative power will be unlocked. We will also delve into the art of interpreting these messages through shamanic practices. I will further share resources like 'Animal Speak' by Ted Andrews, to help you deepen your understanding of your spirit animal. So, let's embark on this journey together, embracing the wild wisdom of our spirit animals.
An inner animal guide or spirit animal can help you in your life, and give you qualities you desire to manifest. An Inner Guide can be a source of inspiration, intuitive and heightened awareness. These inner guides can be discovered deep in one's subconscious. There are different types of Inner Guides such as: the Higher Self, Inner Healer, Inner Teacher, Inner Alchemist, Inner Warrior, Animal Guides as well as Past Life Personalities. In this episode we will connect to an Animal Guide to offer messages and healing.
This episode was inspired by A Bear. In my Eastern Massachusetts seaside community and locally in other towns around there has been many sightings of a Bear or Bears. Bears are not native to this area, only further west in Western Massachusetts or North in Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. The Bear visitations have created quite a stir in our local communities. I asked a colleague who is very connected to indigenous and native elders to find out what the significance is of a bears being in places that aren’t their natural habitat. He told me the bear medicine shows change and transformation coming to those areas in which it is appearing. I did some research and discovered more about bear medicine.
We share our world with animals. They can be our teachers about the lessons we are currently learning in life. There are many interpretations of the symbolism of different animals we can find on the internet as well as in animal Medicine Cards, such as the deck by Jamie Sams or Messages from Your Animal Spirit Guides Oracle Cards: Cards by Stephen Farmer, or the Druid Animal Oracle deck The Druid Animal Oracle Deck by Philip Carr-Gomm , and Stephanie Carr-Gomm.
Animals can give us messages, when we spot them in our day to day life. It is especially important to note when an animal that is not native to an area shows up in your life, as did the bear down my street. According to certain Shamanic practices, an animal needs to successively show up in your life 3 times or 3 of the same animal at once to be considered a messenger animal. I often see three crows or ravens (when I’m out west) at a time. The Crow or Raven symbolizes the Planet Saturn known as Shani in Vedic Astrology. So I always say “Hi Shani,” what you got for me today? Usually something karmic is being burned off! So keep your eyes open for what Animal messenger is showing up in your life successively and then go google the meaning, or get some animal cards to interpret the lesson for you.

Welcome to Cosmic Scene with Jill Jardine.
Speaker 1:I'm your host, jill Jardine, master's in Counseling, psychology, long-chemistrologer, psychic Healer, hypnotherapist and Yogi. In this episode, i'm going to discuss the importance of connecting with a spirit animal and will lead you on a guided journey to see which totem animal is trying to help you in your life. So stay tuned. Welcome to the episode on the importance of messages from the animal kingdom. I will lead you in a meditation to connect with an inner animal, guide or spirit animal who can help you in your life and give you qualities you desire to manifest. An inner guide can be a source of inspiration, intuition and heightened awareness. These inner guides can be discovered deep in one subconscious. There are different types of inner guides, such as the higher self, the inner healer, the inner teacher, the inner alchemist, the inner warrior, and animal guides as well. In this episode, we will connect to an animal guide to offer messages and healing. This episode was inspired by a bear. In my eastern Massachusetts seaside community and locally in other towns around, there have been many sightings of a bear or bears. Bears are not native to this area. They're found only further west in western Massachusetts or north in Vermont, new Hampshire and Maine The bear visitations have created quite a stir in our local communities. I asked a colleague who is very connected to indigenous and native elders to find out what the significant is of bears being in places that aren't their natural habitat. He told me that bear medicine, as they call it in Native American lore, shows change and transformation coming to those areas in which it is appearing. I did some research and discovered more about bear medicine. Here's what I found online.
Speaker 1:The bear has long been a symbol of power and wildness. It represents the untamed primal forces of nature and the raw, unbridled energy that lies within us. But the bear also has a deeper, more spiritual meaning. It is a guide to your dormant emotional and intellectual resources. The bear spirit animal can be an unpredictable wild card in our life wild in nature but wise and gentle on the inside. Here's some more symbolic meanings associated with bear Strength and confidence, protective power, courage, motherly love and care, healing and protection, affinity with solitude and introspection and grounding. Here's some negative symbolic meanings with bear, such as aggressiveness, territoriality, unreliability or instability in relationships, overwhelming presence of emotion, being slow to change or adapt, and fear. The bear is an awe-inspiring creature whose presence evokes respect and admiration. Animal of the forest and solidly anchored on the ground. It reminds us to stay connected to ourselves and Earth. It illustrates the delicate balance of being protective of one's own interests and reacting overly aggressively, retreating within and daring to go outside of the comfort zone, reconciling our needs with the needs of others and acknowledging the importance of self-care.
Speaker 1:So I figured that all these messages of the bear were important for people in our communities, with the bear showing up And there's a correlation with the needs of the other and self, because the nodes of the moon are about to shift into the sign's Libra, the other south node in Libra and the north node in Aries. Our own needs July 18th. So I have another previous podcast on the nodes of the moon changing signs. Check that out. But the bear is a precursor of the new energies coming in. So when I was writing the July astrological update forecast, i discovered the Sabian symbol for the full moon in Capricorn on July 3rd was quote a group of pheasants on a large estate. This led me to explore the significance of pheasant animal symbology, which is quote encounters with pheasant spirit animal leads to a sense of openness in your life. You're encouraged to remain open to fresh experiences and people, you will find yourself thirsty for a sense of space where you can open your wings. Pheasant is here as a guide who maneuvers you through this time. So there's a keynote for the full moon in July, on July 3rd 2023, coming from the Sabian symbol.
Speaker 1:So animal messages are important. We share our world with animals. They can be our teachers about the lessons we are currently learning in life. There are many interpretations of the symbolism of different animals we can find on the internet as well as in these classic sources the animal medicine cards deck by Jamie Sams, or messages from your animal spirit guides, oracle cards by Stephen Farmer or, one of my favorites, the druid animal oracle by Philip Kargam and Stephanie Kargam. And, of course, there's the animal Bible of interpreting animal messages, called animal speak by Ted Andrews. So check out those resources. We've been around a while, even before the internet. Animals can give us messages when we spot them in our day-to-day life.
Speaker 1:It is especially important to know when an animal that is not native to an area shows up in your life, as did the bear down my street. According to certain shamanic practices, an animal needs to successively show up in your life three times, or three of the same animal at once to be considered a messenger animal. I often see three crows or ravens at a time. It's ravens when I'm out west And the crow or raven symbolizes the planet Saturn, known as Shawnee in Vedic astrology. So I always say hi, shawnee, what you got for me today Usually something karmic is being burnt off. I often see three turkeys or more at once in my area as well, and I know that turkeys symbolize the spiral dance, or ascending to a higher state of consciousness. They also represent abundance, connection with the spirit of the land, with Mother Earth, and blessings from the earth. So I always thank the turkeys when I see them. So keep your eyes open for what animal messenger is showing up in your life successively And then go Google the meaning or get some animal cards or Ted Williams book Animal Speak to interpret the lesson for you.
Speaker 1:Animal spirit guides in many indigenous cultures and traditions exist. There is a belief that every human has at least two spirit guides who protect and guide them since the day they are born. Spirit guides can be your ancestors, but they can also be animals, or a spirit guide in the form of an animal is called an animal totem. It executes the energy of that specific animal. Some spiritual people who work with energy may call them familiars or simply spirit animal. It is believed that a spirit animal chooses you from the day you are born until the day you die, becoming your animal totem. Animal totem chooses you and not the other way around. Even if other spirit animals will accompany you on your path, it is still their choice to do so. However, they really become animal totems, meaning they stay for a season, not a lifetime, like an animal totem. The reason why they choose you vary from protecting and guiding you through a period of time to helping you excel in some difficult task. Spirit animals energy may aid you differently depending on the issues that you have on your hands. Their animal totem represents qualities, abilities, characteristics that you currently have or that you are in the process of developing. Even though you may have only one animal totem for your whole life, it is possible that you will find yourself accompanied by different animal totems throughout your life.
Speaker 1:A spirit animal is characterized by a personal relationship to the individual it is associated with. You can have one or several spirit animals throughout your life, during a specific phase of your life or at specific occasions. Your spirit animal often represents qualities and attributes that you may see in yourself. It is instructive to learn about the habits and characteristics of your power animal and see how they are reflected in your own personality and life. Think of your spirit animal as a guardian spirit or spirit guide. It can play the role of protector and provide guidance. It's like a personal guide or protector that has a personal affinity with the person it's associated with.
Speaker 1:I found some good interpretation of what a spirit animal is, as well as description of spirit animals on the internet. Here's one Spirit animals are divine pilots on your journey of life. It relates you with its unique skills and characteristics, and manifests itself to help you overcome the challenges of your spiritual walk, following the golden rule of everything is connected. Native Americans believe that each of us travels with a cadre of spirit guides. They are angels, mythical creatures, ancestors, and then there are animal totems, plants and light beings. Spirit animals, also known as power animals or spirit guides, are your spiritual teacher or messenger in animal forms. Each individual or person has one of its own, sometimes defined by your birth date or zodiac sign. People look up spirit animals on the internet for various purposes guidance, protection, power or even wisdom.
Speaker 1:Ted Andrews, author of Animal Speak says this quote we can use animal totems and their images to learn about ourselves and the invisible world. We do not have to believe that these images and totems are beings of great intelligence, but there is an archetypal power that resides behind overseas and manifests through these creatures. These archetypes have their own qualities and characteristics, which are reflected in the behaviors and activities of the animals. Ancient priests and priestesses used animal totems to assist them in coming face to face with the spirit world. They would imitate the animals' imposter dress and dance, creating rituals around it, so as to invoke and share in the energy manifesting in the world through the animal. The animal became a totem, a power or a medicine. It became a symbol of a specific kind of energy. When they awakened to that totem and honored it, they released the archetypal energies behind it in their lives. You can learn to access that same energy. By doing so, you begin to learn the language of nature and open yourself to her secrets.
Speaker 1:I'm gonna lead a meditation to connect with an animal guide. I'll be guiding you through a relaxation meditation, but I invite you first to choose your intention. It can be about a problem that you're dealing with or an issue. Maybe it's a blockage or an earthly concern such as finances. So take a moment now, before we shift into the guided meditation part of the podcast, to choose your intention, or you can just leave it open to see what animal comes to you and what the message is.

You feel very excited because you know today you're going to meet that special guide, that special spirit animal who has guidance, protection, healing and a message for you.
Speaker 1:So, walking along the path, coming to what feels like a clearing on the side of the path, as you go down that clearing, you notice there's a wooden bench made out of a log that you can sit on and relax And breathing in the fresh air And maybe closing your eyes for a moment, feeling your feet connected to the ground beneath you, feeling the earth coming up through your feet, sitting on this natural bench, just feeling so relaxed, so happy to be here this time, knowing when to open your eyes, you'll be seeing an animal, an animal that can help you in your life, or even a bird.
