Most commonly animal guides are deeply ingrained in the history of Native Americans, Shamans and other tribal organizations and traditions

Power animals can guide and protect you in the spirit world and in your dreams.

They can also assist you in the waking state as well.

Perhaps you are trying to learn something and are having difficulty understanding. Ask wolf for assistance; she is the great teacher.
Animal guides are not limited to mammals. The birds, reptiles, amphibians, insects and mythological beasts can be just as helpful.

Children can be taught to work with animal guides and can have a great deal of success with them.

The act of honouring an animal is not an act of worship. It is the acknowledgment of their power and their being as brothers and sisters of the entire universe. It is a sign of our gratitude for their help.

The energy of the animals, birds and other creatures that assist us should be honoured. For too long, we have subjugated these creatures who are our equals in the system of the Universe.

When honouring animal wisdom and energy, remember to say "Thank you." For all the help they give us they deserve our gratitude.

 Here are just a few examples of the many Animal Guides around us.
