I'm A Bear
Not that I am surprised by this, but I recently took an online Spirit Animal Quiz and found out learned confirmed that my spirit animal is a Bear. To quote the website, in "the kingdom of spirit animals, the bear is emblematic of grounding forces and strength". And when they put it that way, I'd say I would have to agree with their assessment. I am nothing if not a stable, grounding force. It's a gift.
A few other things the website mentions to make us "bears" feel more comfortable being associated with one of the laziest animals on the planet:
- The primary meaning of the bear spirit animal is strength and confidence
- Standing against adversity; taking action and leadership
- The spirit of the the bear indicates it’s time for healing or using healing abilities to help self or others
- The bear medicine emphasizes the importance of solitude, quiet time, rest
I basically knew that I would come out as a large, lumbering animal of some kind. Anyone who knows me would not think of me as rabbit, eagle, ferret, or cheetah. For a hot second, I thought I might come out as an elephant or rhino or, at the very least, an old dog that's ready to die. But Bear, it is. And I can live with that.
