I am not Native American, however, I do believe in totem animals or animal guardians as other cultures may call them.
A simple way to find out about your totem animals is to ask to see them in your dreams. Of course, there are more obvious ways. What animals seem attracted to you most? Which animals do you feel more inclined to? Which keep appearing? Often we collect items with our favorite animals on them without thinking about it.
Mine happens to be a shark and last night I asked to see others.
So...last night I had a dream about being surrounded by all manner of wild felines
Most particularly I remember, a mountain lion and what I believe to be a bobcat.
Feel free to share what you know about totem animals in general and your own as well.
