totem-building

by the way...

"A totem is a stipulated ancestor of a group of people, such as a family, clan, group, lineage, or tribe.
Totems support larger groups than the individual person. In kinship and descent, if the apical ancestor of a clan is nonhuman, it is called a totem. Normally this belief is accompanied by a totemic myth...
In modern times, some single individuals, not otherwise involved in the practice of a tribal religion, have chosen to adopt a personal spirit animal helper, which has special meaning to them, and may refer to this as a totem." (wikipedia)

  
New additions to the spirit animal column:

 
'seal' from totem series      




Seal lends to hearing and balance of paying attention to the inner voice. Association with water which is the creative, feminine, imaginative. Helps the inner creative imagination and inspiration balance with outer realities.




'cardinal' from totem series
 Cardinal aids in manifesting dreams and ideas by focusing intentions, adds color and balance to life, aids in understanding and helping you find your own song in life, renews vitality in life and returns joy, brilliance and balance to the mind, body and spirit.
