Question by Las: How can I find my spirit animal?
I don’t want to hear about pagan things. I want to find my inner spirit animal, and maybe learn some advice on life from it. The problem is, everytime i try to meditate and go to a forest, i just have trouble picturing things. Also, I feel like I am forcing my mind to imagine what animals come about, because i am making up the forest in my own head. I just can’t get an animal to come out naturally. I need a professional shaman or maybe a Native American of some sort to please tell me in detail how to find my spirit animal. Sorry this is so long and thank you in advance.
Sorry if you misinterpreted my first statement what i meant was that i don’t want to hear anybody calling me a pagan.

“I don’t want to hear about pagan things. I want to find my inner spirit animal.”
Ah what a lovely oxymoron!
Not sure. I tracked down a Cherokee Holy man here in Ohio that a close friend knew and he read mine. So I am not sure what to suggest you to do for this.
Go to the zoo and find out if any gorillas have recently died.
‘How can I find my spirit animal?’
Take some old fashioned Acid, that will do the trick!
buy a log cabin in the woods
WTF that is a pagan concept. Struggle alone…. there is another technique but you don’t want anything to-do with pagans so I wont tell you.
The concept of a spirit animal is not only native-American but most shamanic religions have this concept this ranges from Europe all the way to the Asia. A good example in Europe would be a witches familiar, a black cat or a wizards owl, crow, wolf, fox. While most people think of these creatures in the physical sense like a pet, in truth they were not physically present, but are thought of as a spiritual being/companion.
Oh and yes, depending on how you define “Pagan” it could mean anything outside the Abrahamic religions.
So I am sorry xxSkylersxVenomxx I will stick to my guns and say WTF.

ET is GOD, it’s not a pagan question. I mean I’m sure there is something Pagan like that. But this person is specifically talking about Native American traditions. So next time read the question and don’t be so narrow-minded.
Person acually asking the question, I would just keep trying. I know that sounds lame, but it’s kinda the truth. Once you get to the forest just don’t think, let it happen. Your spirit animal will reveal it self when your ready. 🙂
I know you are asking for an animal spirit guide, but sometimes, a spirit guide does not show itself as one particular animal. It is relaxation and meditation that will help you find yours. If you see more than one image in your mind, it is usually because your guide is more complicated than one animal description can explain. I found mine to show itself as a totem pole of various animals. Again, sometimes, your guide can show itself in human form. I also have these, presenting themselves as a group of twelve to give me advice when I need it. Really, the key to finding your own, is learning to be still, both in your body and in your mind. Try and find a quiet place somewhere that you are totally comfortable, whatever surroundings that may be, and then close your eyes, relax, and ask for your guide(s) to show itself. When you meet it/them, offer blessings of friendship. If you feel that you need any further help, feel free to email me. I will help in any way that I can. May peace and blessings be with you for the rest of your life…
I do not want to mock you, and what I am saying I mean it seriously.
Just look in the mirror and you will see your animal.
We are all animals until we find our Human inside.
It is not the spirit animal we have to find, but the human one.
We are animals as we are now, blindly executing desires and instincts just like any other animal in this world.
Being human means that we can elevate ourselves above our selfish desires and start connecting to other people through unconditional giving.
It is something animals do instinctively, but we have to learn doing consciously against our inherent nature.
So if you are truly interested in spirituality, than you need to be looking for the human being inside, and this search will take us through the connection to others.
I hope it helps, all the best.
