DAILY ANIMAL SPIRIT
Raccoon spirit | Embrace curiosity.

This masked bandit can make you laugh with his antics or make you angry when you realize he’s made off with your food! Raccoon is incredibly curious—to the point that he’ll walk into a potentially dangerous situation just to see what’s up. Like Raccoon, are there situations you’re barging into before you have all the information? Might want to re-think this one.

Raccoons are adaptable, resourceful, clever, and cunning animals. These animals are the bandits of the animal kingdom – similar to how we see crows – deceitful. However, many characteristics are worthy of our respect – very few animals can make the best out of a bad situation. Raccoons have adapted to the human-dominated world like no other animal. They have kept their freedom with trickery and resourcefulness. It seems like whenever they set their mind on a task – nothing can stop them.

These animals are creative with their actions because the main focus is on the end goal itself – not the process. To some people, Raccoons might seem like naïve creatures that get into unnecessary troubles all the time. However, to understand their full potential and symbolism – you need to look beyond this preset image. Here are some facts about these animals that may surprise you and help you see the whole picture of their character. Raccoons are tribe-oriented animals – they will always encourage you to put your loved ones first. They will teach you not to be selfish, to spread your good fortune, and that true happiness in life is always shared. Raccoons are surprisingly good judges and symbolize discernment. They help you assess every situation, like the masterminds they are – they can see some hidden points you might have missed. These animals are great at planning and judging situations. They will help you create the best with the resources at hand. The Raccoon – evolutionary speaking – has always lived on the land. It embodies the Element Earth and Air – it is resilient, goal-goal oriented, stable, practical, protective, adaptable, clever, and courageous. The connection of these two elements creates the raccoon’s mastermind personality. It can fixate on one task while adapting constantly to meet the requirements. That is why this animal is considered clever, cunning, and stealthy. The combination of these elements creates the only worthy opponent of the crow.

The Spirit Animal Raccoon is the most perfectly adapted help you can get. These animals are too resourceful not to get the job done. They will assess the situation like no other and help you make the best out of it. This animal has chaotic energy, the type that brings in a lot of movement into your life. However, the first step of this spirit guide helping you is to set clear priorities. When you have a clear idea of what you want to achieve – this animal will step up and show you the way to achieve them. The Spirit Guide Raccoon is here to teach you that everything you need is already here. Most of us think that to achieve our goals, a set of other events need to happen. However, this is most likely not true. It has been scientifically proven that we process a very small portion of the information our brain receives from our senses. In other words – we only acknowledge that what we set our mind. Therefore, if we consciously look for something – we will find it – the Universe is an abundant place. Raccoons are here to teach us that we can find whatever we need in a very close reach. However, we should always try to work in a team and share joy with others. Shared happiness is always more meaningful. Try to remember that we need to move forward together as a society and not only as individuals. Take the time to bring others with you.


DAILY ORACLE CARD
IV. FOUR OF PENTACLES

This card depicts a man who is sitting on a stool, who is holding onto two pentacles in a very defensive and tight posture. It’s almost as if he is hoarding them out of fear of loss. One pentacle is balanced precariously on his head, while another one is tightly clutched between his own hands, and there are two of them which are securely placed underneath his feet. He is making sure that there is absolutely no one touching his coins. At the same time, he is also unable to move because he is holding the coins so tightly. In other words, he is restrained from acting because he is holding too tight to his possessions. To some, money does not always bring freedom.

The Four of Pentacles card is capable of generating both negative and positive perceptions. On one hand, the card signifies that you have successfully managed to accomplish much of your goals and you have managed to attain a significant material wealth in the process. However, on the other hand, there is a significant chance that you will start valuing things only for their material worth. You have worked hard to get to the point where you are now, and it is absolutely natural for your to desire to make sure that you remain stable. But this also has a chance to turn you into an overly possessive or greedy person who wants to ensure that no one is capable of taking away your own wealth.

There is a chance to turn you into an overly possessive or greedy person who wants to ensure that no one is capable of taking away your own wealth. 

The Four of Pentacles is also a card which shows that you are currently in a position in which you have solid investments and that you are financially stable. Because of your new-found wealth, you are being particularly conservative about money, and you are most definitely not inclined to gamble when it comes to any kind of financial matters. You are protective of what you have managed to accumulate throughout time, and you desire to steadily increase your overall net worth.

Be aware that without risk, there is no reward – if you spend too much of your time attempting to conserve, you may become a prisoner to your own material possessions. Wealth is a kind of energy as well, and we create what we express.
