DAILY ANIMAL SPIRIT
Wolf Spirit | Balance the needs of the one with the needs of the many.

Wolf can survive either as a loner or as part of a pack, and he howls to remind you that you have to balance the needs of others with the needs of the self. If you’re giving yourself away to your own detriment, you are living in opposition to Wolf medicine. Return to balance—and begin feeding your emotions, your mind, and your body.

The wolf is one of the most known power animals. Many people misunderstand the nature of these animals, labeling them as aggressive, and often think they’ll attack without any provocation. But, in fact, they are very clever, loyal, and protective of their herd. They will only strike when someone threatens their family or territory. They are very smart, and sensitive and cherish their freedom.

Let’s take a look at some of the meanings and symbolisms of Wolf spirit: Powerful connection with your intuition: If you encounter a wolf in a dream or you come across an image of this powerful animal repeatedly, it is an indication that you are reconnecting with your higher instincts. This means you no longer need outside judgment to know how to navigate your way. Your mind is clear of doubts and your gut feeling is the compass pointing out the right steps to follow. High intelligence: Contrary to popular belief, wolves do not react impulsively to their circumstances. They carefully calculate their actions and respond according to their experience and wisdom. Therefore, the wolf appears to remind you not to act rashly in whatever situation you are currently facing. It suggests you should trust in your skills and rise above your opponents’ game. Loyalty and communication: Wolves, as mentioned above, are fiercely loyal to their pack. They have great communicational skills that lead them to be close to their family members. The wolf appears for you to recall your roots and get in touch with your family at times of distress or loneliness. By resuming your ties with your home place, you will find your way again. The deep urge for freedom: Wolves are wild animals for a reason. They do not allow oppression by any authority, they are free, and they march to the beat of their own drum. When a wolf seems to constantly appear in your daily existence, it’s a warning sign you should pay close attention to. It means that you are losing independence and spontaneity due to an external situation. It is time to regain your freedom and fight for your territory before the flame of your spirit fades away.

The main personality traits of the wolf spirit are intelligence, determination, confidence, loyalty, and boldness. Like elephants or dolphins, wolves raise their young, care for injured family members, and live in family groups. There is evidence that they suffer and mourn the loss of family members. They have a highly advanced and efficient social organization that enables them to withstand any hindrance. The alpha wolves are in charge of maintaining order and coherence, while the rest of the members have also specific functions. Wolves look after each other as individuals, form friendships, and pass on knowledge from one generation to the next. A strong pack structure allows them to communicate effectively with each other. Older wolves teach younger ones hunting strategies and preserve a specific pack culture. They are curious and clever, plan their actions thoroughly, and do not let their opponents deceive them. They know exactly what they want and no one can make them question their goals and ambitions. Although they run in packs and are very protective of their lineage, they are also very strong and independent. They know who they are and never forget their roots. Despite the popular reputation of the lone wolf, there don’t live apart from each other. A lone wolf is not a wolf moving away from family and rebelling against the status quo but simply looking for another wolf for companionship. They are social but do not easily trust outsiders. They are also extremely careful not to be led astray by appearances or empty promises. They enjoy the outdoors and open spaces. Wolves need a proper range to roam freely, and they can’t stand to be locked up or told what to do. If this were to happen, they will bear their fangs and make it clear to everyone else that they are messing with the wrong creature.

The positive powers of these animal helpers are linked to the spiritual connection with one’s instincts. It is sort of like going back to basic. People who integrate the powers of the wolf recover their lost gifts and stop doubting their actions. They become independent, bold, and fearless. They do not let others take advantage of them, command respect, and shine a special glow that makes them truly remarkable. The positive power of wolves is also related to wisdom and teaching. They have gone through countless experiences and challenges and can help others to overcome theirs. It also reminds you how to live in a pack. If you have been on your own for too long, the power of the wolf will inspire you to work as part of a team. It reminds you that you will get better results if you are a solid member of a group.

JANUARY 2023 LUNAR CALENDAR

1/28/2023 FIRST QUARTER IN TAURUS: Your safety depends on the need for stability, which is not easy to satisfy now. You have to learn to accept change as part of your life. The basic problem is finding your own self-respect in order to ensure that you do not mistakenly seek it in material things. When you accept yourself for who you are, it will become easier for you to find peace and tranquility in the outside world.

FEBRUARY 2023 LUNAR CALENDAR

2/5/2023 FULL SNOW MOON IN LEO: You feel safe in moments when you can impress others and get praise and admiration. Yet, when you get into the spotlight, you may find yourself at a loss. Maybe you should admit your fear of criticism and your inability to accept criticism. It is very important to accept feedback and use it for improvement.

The Snow Moon in February is aptly named after abundant snowfall. Some North American tribes called it the Hungry Moon due to the scarce food sources during mid-winter, while others named it Bear Moon to refer to when bear cubs are born. Storm Moon, Ice Moon, and Snow Moon were common Celtic and Old English names.

2/13/2023 LAST QUARTER MOON IN SCORPIO: Moon in Scorpio creates the need to delve into your feelings as deep as possible. You desire meaningful emotional exchanges now more than at any other time even if it is not easy and you are forced to change many things. Shallow relationships do not satisfy you, because they are not purifying enough.

2/20/2023 NEW MOON IN PISCES: Moon in Pisces has the greatest sensitivity and perceptiveness of surroundings. You can experience feelings of insecurity, be passive and only wait and see what happens in your life. If you engage in creative or spiritual search, you will benefit from great imagination of Pisces.

2/27/2023 FIRST QUARTER MOON IN GEMINI: Moon in Gemini manifests itself by the need for changes and spontaneity. Safety lies in thinking about your feelings and sharing them with others. You can be more talkative and speak with ease these days. You might have a better ability to keep a cool head, but beware, cold heart can discourage others. Harmony of thinking and feeling is important.
