Spirit Animals as Messengers from the Universe

Did you realize that the animals around you can deliver important messages to you? Or better yet, pass along their uniquely characteristic energies to help you along in your own journey? The Universe speaks through infinite channels to get our attention and wake us up to our journey, and the sudden, unexpected presence of animals in our lives (think, "wow...that deer came out of nowhere" or "that hummingbird flew right past my ear!") are often revealed to be significant messages for us at that point in our life. Whether they are real life, unique and vivid encounters, or they animals make themselves known in dreaming, these aren't just chance encounters or coincidences. Rather, it's an opportunity to discover what wisdom or medicine they are trying to bring to you on behalf of the Universe. (Psst...the symbolism, messages, and wisdom are usually wildly relevant to your current situation). Meo and Shannon talk about the history of animals as companions and messengers to humans, and break down the differences between spirit animals and power animals (think of differing levels of occurrence, intensity, and longevity in your life). They talk about the ways to interpret the messages and what resources are available for this, as well as how to maximize the integration of wisdom these messengers of the Universe bring to us. There's a whole world of communication to discover through animal messengers! Have fun!
