So what do these totems and symbols mean?
Butterfly – Butterfly totems bring grace to your life but can also indicate transformation and change.
Horse – As a spirit animal, the horse represents power, service, and freedom. Hernando DeSoto brought Spanish mustangs to the New World in the 1500s, and the Choctaw Pony is a descendant of those magnificent creatures. The Choctaw people were dependent upon them for hunting parties and they carried many on the Trail of Tears to Oklahoma from our homeland in Mississippi.
Spiral – The spiral is the most used symbol in the world. It is used by virtually every culture in some manner. For most North American tribes it symbolizes the life force, one’s personal path, or the creative spirit.
Dragonfly – The dragonfly brings peace and joy to your life, but also symbolizes adaptability and change.
Wolf – Known as the teacher, the wolf totem also represents loyalty, courage and intuition.
