If so what is it?: Wolf (NOT CLICHE)
Dose it have a name and what: Eska, which means Creek in Sutton.
Animal description : He is a massive ebony black wolf with glemaing amber eyes.
I am a spiritulist, which is basically the whole origin of spirit animals along with the Indians, and trust me wolves are not cliche animals in this. It is very rare, for your spirit animal to be a wolf, very rare. The most common I think, is a bear or eagle (no offence if you have them for your spirit guide's) and, many people say 'oh yeah I took an online quiz so it must be this' or 'Its my faveroute animal yadadada' and chances are, if it's your faveroute animal it wouldn't be that animal.
And the only way you can truly tell, is by vision in your sleep or peace of mind through meditation. I've meditated a few times now, and I can tell you through meditation I saw a light meadow, and a path that I walked down. It was really sunny, and there were a load of animals about like bears, rabbits, rats, giraffes, zebras, doe's but as I kept walking I came to a bridge. On the other side of the bridge stood my spirit animal, a massive ebony black wolf, with gleaming amber eyes. It may seem cliche but trust me it isn't, and we talked for ages. I even overslept through my alarm. I named him Eska. It seemed suitable for him, and it is Creek in Sutton. I met him by walking over a small river/creek.
I've seen him when I am awake as well, well half awake. I ran with him through the arctic in dream recently, it was breath taking. A spirit animal isn't like you, it helps you, and that is way different. This is what makes me angry. I mean, no one can truly experience their animal or spirit guide by just thinking it's their faveroute animal or taking a quiz. My faveroute animal is a meerkat/ hedgehog, so why isn't my spirit animal a hedgehog or meerkat?
Because it isn't, and ugh. Hardly anyone has a wolf spirit animal. You may see wolves in your normal dreams but that means nothing UNLESS you connect like me and Eska did.
I have a special connection with Eska, and I can tell we are meant to be. It's that special connection that makes a spirit animal special from a normal dream animal. I know that some Native American or Indian tribes may worship wolves or have them for their common animals but thats a different thing entirely. Spiritulists like me believe that our spirit animals will guide us through life and look after us.
I am interested to hear about your spirit animals, through ACTUAL HAPPENINGS and not quizzes or things like that etc. Like mine was a real happening and thats how I found my Eska.
Also, just saying don't hate comment or be like 'omg your so stupid for believing in dat stuff' or 'mine is a wolf cos I took a quiz' because honestly it isn't and I take great offence to things like that or mockery from my beliefs.
