We all have animal spirit guides that come into our lives to teach a specific lesson that we must learn. For me, I have had the Otter, Polar Bear, Penguin, Tiger and most recently Moth. We have spirit animals that stay with us for all of our lives to protect us and keep us strong! We also have spirit animals that come into our lives for brief moments or for as long as it takes for us to learn something from them in order for us to spiritually grow. You can find out what your spirit animal is right now with a quick guided meditation. This is what I used to discover that my spirit animal is the Otter.
If the guided video meditation doesn't work for you, another option is to notice signs. I discovered that the Penguin was my spirit animal because I kept on seeing signs of the penguin throughout the entire day. I took the train and saw someone with a penguin backpack. I got home and turned on the t.v. to see a commercial about penguins. Things like this are not coincidences. If you notice them, you will know its a sign from the other realms. During this time, I was first learning about astral projection and lucid dreaming, but I was struggling with it. So it was no surprise when I looked up the meaning of the penguin and it said that Penguin helps us with out of body experiences! I started keeping a dream journal and I asked for Penguin's help in achieving astral projection. After I asked, I literally felt that I was embodying the penguin. I researched and learned more about penguins. The first time I achieved astral projection, I imagined I was a penguin...the master of both water and land. I pictured myself emerging from the icy cold waters into the land and I was out of my body :) So all you have to do is ask for your spirit animal to show itself to you through divine signs.
