What Is Your Inner Animal Spirit?

I am a turtle. I like to protect myself. I like my privacy. Added bonus, I take my home with me everywhere because it is safe. My best friend is a cheetah. Cheetahs are anxious. We live on a deserted island. Cheetahs can't survive on a beach. (Nothing to eat!) But, the island is safe. Somehow cheetah sticks with me on the island. Well, not so much anymore. I envision myself there, but he is now usually absent.

Yes, my story is an odd one, but this all came out in guided meditation and puppet therapy. Go figure.
 
Deer: gentleness, caring and kindness

Deer blend very well with their environment but are very sensitive to every sound or movement. Often twins, even triplets, are born in the spring. Does and bucks live in separate groups until the mating season. The white-tailed deer are moderately gregarious, and family members forage food together along with other family groups, giving the appearance of a large herd. People with Deer Medicine are often described as being swift and alert. They are intuitive, often appearing to have well developed, even extrasensory perceptions. Sometimes their thoughts seem to race ahead, and they appear not to be listening. Deer's medicine includes gentleness in word, thought and touch, ability to listen, grace and appreciation for the beauty of balance, understanding of what's necessary for survival, power of gratitude and giving, ability to sacrifice for the higher good, connection to the woodland spirits, alternative paths to a goal. The gentleness of Deer is the heart-space of the Great Spirit which embodies His love for us all. Deer teaches us to find the gentleness of spirit that heals all wounds, to stop pushing to get others to change and to love and accept them as they are. The only true balance to power is love and compassion.
 
I was told Bear and Stallion. Bear to protect me. The Stallion to recover my spirit.

I love power animals or spirit animals! Great idea!

But I feel inside like the Deer.

Sorry I didn't read closely the question.

Not quite my animal of choice, but how I feel usually...
