Spirit Animal Quiz
Bear
The bear has a strong connection with the earth and provides grounding. If the bear is your spirit animal, you most likely love spending time outdoors around the trees - in the parks or forests. You are also very independent, strong, and brave. Your strong will and ability to stand up for others make you a natural leader. You are not afraid to stand up for your rights, beliefs, and dreams. You have a strong connection with lunar energy and are interested in awakening the unconscious. You know that to be successful, you need to hibernate your ideas until the timing is right. Just like the bear who takes a long and deep sleep, you also need to go on a meditative journey to know yourself and realize what your heart is seeking. Your spirit animal is telling you that you need a little more solitude, rest, and quiet time in your life right now so that you can recharge and become even more productive on your spiritual mission.
Eagle
In Native American culture, the eagle is associated with wisdom, strength, and clear vision. If the eagle is your spirit animal, you are a free spirit with a strong sense of self. You have a solid and clear vision of life and the things going on around you. You also have healing power and soar high to achieve your goals. In this life, you've learned that everything (good and bad) should be seen as a gift from the Universe. You rise above the material to see the spiritual, which allows you to see the bigger picture and understand the core of any problem. You do not fear the unknown, which allows you to see hidden spiritual truths. Your spirit animal is telling you that you need to realize your personal strength and determine your own destiny. Don't waste your time on things or people that will not bring you closer to your goals or make you a better person. Focus more on things that will help you fly high and free!
Butterfly
A butterfly symbolizes development, personal growth, metamorphosis, and transformation. If the butterfly is your spirit animal, you are always open to new experiences. You quickly move from one state, perspective, or lifestyle to another. You accept change with grace and eloquence. Most likely, you've experienced multiple "rebirth" cycles during this lifetime and see synchronicity more often than others. The butterfly also symbolizes your hidden potential. Before the caterpillar turns into a butterfly, it needs to grow and go through its journey of development. Similarly, in order for us to experience spiritual awakening, we need to go through our journey, do our shadow work, and re-discover our divine nature. Only then can we reveal our hidden potential.
Wolf
If the wolf is your spirit animal, you are a free-spirited individual with strong instincts, good intuition, and a sharp mind. You are independent and loyal. You tend to rely on intuition when making decisions. You are social and good at building deep emotional bonds with others. Your spirit animal encourages you to trust in your instinct and intuition more. If you feel mistrust or lack confidence, pay attention to your inner voice because it will help you make sense of things and point you in the right direction. The wolf spirit animal is a pathfinder. However, to find your true path, getting away and having some alone time might be necessary. This will help you to reconnect with your Higher self and see life events more clearly. Sometimes a wolf should turn into a loner wolf to rediscover its inner power.
Dolphin
The dolphin spiritual animal invites us to dive deep into the waters of Higher consciousness and focus on emotional healing. Dolphins symbolize intelligence hidden under friendliness and playfulness. If your spirit animal is a dolphin, you are friendly, playful, positive, compassionate, and social. You are good at reading people and understanding their feelings. You are always ready to help out those in need. You are also a natural leader who can see both sides of any situation. You have a deep connection with the Higher consciousness. Your spirit animal is inviting you on a journey of deep emotional healing, self-acceptance, and self-love. You've been helping others in need but might have forgotten about your self-healing. Now is the time to focus on your own healing and rebuild your energy for your future service to humanity.
Owl
The owl spirit animal represents wisdom, intuitive knowledge, supernatural powers, vision, independence, and freedom. The owl goes much deeper into the meaning of life; it does not rely on the superficial surface of things. This allows it to discover some hidden treasures of life. If the owl is your spirit animal, you are an old soul wise beyond your years. You can see beyond people's masks and recognize their true motives. It's almost impossible to trick you because you can see what others can't. Your spirit animal is inviting you to do shadow work to help you rediscover new aspects of your inner potential. Then you'll be able to strengthen your intuitive abilities and supernatural powers even more, which would take your spiritual service to the next level.
Praying mantis
The praying mantis is highly connected to divinity. If the praying mantis is your spirit animal, you are a very spiritual individual who is interested in mysticism, paranormal activity, mediumship, meditation, or geomancy. You feel strongly connected to your Higher Self. You are patient and very introspective. You have good self-discipline and devotion to your spiritual practice. You are destined to be a powerful healer or even spiritual teacher. Your persistent practice allowed you to develop certain abilities that you can teach others. Your spiritual practice requires a quiet lifestyle, a peaceful environment, and stress-free life. A big city life with a lot of chaos and noise is not for you. Your spirit animal reminds you that a quiet mind can help you find answers to even the most difficult questions. Go away to a place where you can just be one with nature and yourself, and meditate. Stillness will help you find the best solutions to any problem.
Peacock
It represents beauty, intelligence, integrity, honor, self-love, and reinvention. In Native American culture, a peacock is a symbol of self-esteem, self-confidence, sexuality, dignity, and refinement. If the peacock is your spirit animal, you have a strong desire to make the world a better place. You are very creative and love improving the environment around you. You have the gift of seeing beauty in even the simplest things. Your spirit animal is telling you that you may be entering a time of rebirth. When going through uncertain and turbulent times, remember to focus on the vision of the beautiful new world that you want to create. The peacock will pick you up after the biggest of storms and help you to manifest something wonderful.
Lion
Just like it is considered the king of the jungle, a lion embodies power, authority, and leadership. It is, in most cases, the spirit animal of daring and courageous people. If the lion is your spirit animal, you are a natural leader and protector of the weak. You are drawn to careers in leadership or public service. You are not afraid of obstacles. You believe that overcoming difficulties make you stronger and build your character. You always set big goals and believe that you're destined to have big success in life. Your spirit animal is telling you that it's time to reclaim a leadership role in life. However, on your path to success, your pride can be triggered. Remember to always stay humble and focus on service rather than proving your role in society.
