So I had this wonderful dream last night about a skunk that came to visit, and set up a home in my backyard...I spent most of my time in the dream protecting the skunk from the dogs....so I wondered, because I hadn't really ever thought about it, what does the skunk represent in Animal Medicine? I thought I would find something less than charming, but no! And it is amazing how on target this is!
SKUNK I will not tolerate abuse in any form.
I have power!
I will not let others use me.
I am a divine child!
I will sift out friends, keeping the good.
That is my responsibility!
Like the skunk, I will learn when to be disagreeable.
That is my right!
Sensuality, Respect, Self-EsteemThe skunk is a very powerful totem
with mystical and magical associations.
It teaches how to give respect, expect respect and demand respect.
This totem helps you recognize your own qualities and assert them.
Skunks are fearless but very peaceful.
These are two wonderful qualities which you can learn from your skunk totem.
If you have skunk medicine will find that the use of fragrances will elicit dynamic responses
in the people around you.
Your sexual response will be heightened
and you will have a greater ability to attract people.
Individuals with a skunk totem must learn to balance the ability to draw and repel people. Skunks remind us that there is a time to be with people and a time for solitude.
The skunk's stripe is the outward sign of kundalini or life force.
When you receive a skunk totem, your kundalini or life force activates and amplifies. You must learn to use this force effectively.
Skunks are silent animals and through their silence, they teach us not to brag --
it will push people away rather than attract.
People will notice you without any help.
When the skunk appears, opportunities will open to bring self-esteem and respect.
There will be increased sexuality:
physically, psychically and spiritually.
