Power Animals and the chakras

[serenitygarden]

This gives some idea as to the specific animals to call on when seeking help opening or balancing a chakra.


The teachings help us identify those cycles that we have completed and point us in the direction to complete the ones we still need to work on to give our lives new direction and meaning.

Find out how the seven Spirit Animals match each chakra of the seven Hindu chakra system, here:

Crown Chakra: Eagle
The eagle has the ability to see the big picture, the balance between Earth beings and spirit; awareness of how our journey on Earth is not separate from our spiritual identity.

Brow Chakra: Mountain Lion
Quest for wisdom (tracking); the mountain lion has the ability to differentiate between human knowledge and universal truth. The mountain lion shows openness to the lessons of true elders, recognizing forces and truths that govern our lives and all others.

Throat Chakra: Personal Power Animal
Finding your own voice: discovering how to best use your personal gifts; learning to distinguish between self-power, power over others, or others’ power over you. Honoring your gift with courage.

Heart Chakra: Wolf
Development of ability to love and care for others; community awareness and awareness of relationship; joy in nurturing and supporting others, and receiving the same for yourself to achieve all of the above.

Third Chakra/Solar Plexus: Bear
The bear symbolizes self-knowledge and growth; standing in your own power; transition and change through the power of introspection; recognizing the limits of human knowing, power of humanity and forgiveness.

Second Chakra/Hara Center: Badger
The badger represents recognition of individual needs, care of self as separate physical entity. The power and vulnerability of the Life Force manifest within us, acknowledging its sacredness; healing energy for self and others.

First Chakra: Mole
The mole represents our learning to respect our dependence on the alchemy of the Earth. This chakra represents our first awareness of physical form, relationship to Earth, honoring the Source, respecting the alchemy of the soil that supports all life.

Oh awesome, I was sort of guessing that mountain lion is my power animal. I had several dreams about it, even about being one for a while. I also have an affinity for doves, but from what I understand domestic animals can't be power animals, or can they? I guess doves are not completely domestic. I raised one when I was younger, but eventually it flew away, never became my pet.

Any animal can be a power animal or ally. Even insects and spiders, and plants and trees.
I have some housecats that help me in dreaming sometimes.
If an animal comes to you, I would say it most certainly is one of your totem animals.
It's awesome that you dreamed about being the mountain lion.
She should be a good guide for you, because of that.
You can probably call on her whenever you desire.

Thanks for sharing Lena

Man new i should have come back sooner, got a kiss and didnt even know...

Its amazing the connection here and the naguals history of changing into animals. There has to be a solid connection between your active chakra and the animals associated. I believe they are mentioned as the cloud shaman the diablero and the brujo. Past instructors of one kind or another too Don Juan.
