Birth Totem
The Birth Totem is that Animal Spirit which is the equivalent to the Sun Sign in traditional, exoteric Astrology. Almost everyone in western culture knows what “sun sign” they were born under. In Native Wisdom, there are twelve different Creature Beings that are assigned as the Birth Totem for a period of approximately one month. Hence, our Birth Totem is based upon the day and month of our birth.
Yet, unlike the study of Sun signs in exoteric astrology, the Birth Totem is not so much representative of our ~ego,~ as it is a Teacher that we have chosen to "study under" in the current incarnation. In somewhat simpler terms, this means that the Wisdom and Medicine of our Birth Totem, brings to us the mini lessons that we have chosen and absorb this walk around the Sacred Hoop in order that our soul may evolve and progress The more one aligns and integrates with the lessons that come to us throughout our life, the more we will tend to exhibit the Higher Vibration, characteristics and attributes of that particular Birth Totem.
The Role of the Birth Totem is assigned to a specific Animal Spirit for the birth day and month as delineated below:
