LION - animal totem series

by Lee-Anne Peters October 25, 2016

Today we connected with LION to learn and discover what it may help in us. This became our second in the animal totem series running on my podcast each fortnight.

I like to think of animal totems (or power animals if you prefer) as helpers in spirit, similar to a spiritual guide or teacher - however they are in animal form. I personally find that I have a few long standing animal connections - namely with animals like eagle, whale or cobra... and then at other times in my life other animals will fleet in and out to teach me something, or to share their medicine and wisdom with me - like, raven, dolphin or hawk.

Lion brought with him much strength, courage and stamina.

In the realm of spirit animals, the lion wins the prize for most relentless fighter in the face of life challenges. The lion spirit animal represents courage, strength in overcoming difficulties. The presence of this power animal could also mean that something “wild” or difficult to control is happening. As such, lions symbolizes emotions that are difficult to manage, such a anger or fear.
