Our spirit animals speak not only to who we are, but
where we are headed. Which spirit animal do you think is guiding you?
Raven: Raven represents
mystery, magick, and a change in consciousness. Raven teaches us how to take
the unformed and give it any shape we desire. By helping us to confront our
failures and shortcomings, Raven reminds us that we have the power to transform
anything we have the courage to face. Raven helps us to work the magick of
spiritual laws to manifest that which we need and to bring forth light from
darkness.
Coyote: Coyote represents
humor, wiliness, and a reversal of fortune. Coyote teaches us how to strike a
balance between wisdom and folly. As a cunning adversary, Coyote reminds us to
understand circumstances surrounding a situation fully before developing a plan
to achieve our goals and objectives, but as a survivor, Coyote will take
extreme measures to insure the well-being of its off-spring and lineage.
Horse: Horse represents
freedom, power, and enlightenment. Horse teaches us the benefits of patience,
sensitivity and kindness, and that positive relationships are cooperative
ones. Possessing great stamina and
speed, Horse encourages us to awaken our own power to endure and reach the full
potential of our abilities. A strong and powerful animal, the spirit of the
Horse reminds us of our inner strength and gives us the courage to move forward
and to head in new directions.
Wolf: Wolf represents
protection, loyalty, and spirit. Wolf teaches us to balance our own needs and
that of family and community, reminding us of the importance of ritual to
establish order and harmony, while informing us that true freedom requires
discipline. An extremely intelligent animal with keen senses, Wolf encourages
us to go out of our way to avoid trouble and danger and fight only when
necessary. A great teacher and pathfinder, the spirit of the Wolf urges us to
listen to our own internal thoughts and words to help us find the deepest
levels of self, inner knowledge and intuition.
Eagle: Eagle represents
illumination, healing power, and creation. Eagle teaches us that while we are
free to choose our own paths, we must respect the freedom of others and the
path they have chosen, while its strong sharp beak informs us to mind our words
and their impact on others. With its ability to soar to great heights and
survey all directions, Eagle reminds us to see life from a higher perspective,
for if we look with limited vision we may be blinded to what lies in front of
us. As a symbol of great power, the
spirit of the Eagle means taking on responsibility and power greater than
yourself, using the gift of vision and clarity to help others through dark
times.
Blurb:
The first book in a magnificent new series about a girl who can navigate between the worlds of the living and the dead by #1 New York Times bestselling author Alyson Noël.
Lately strange things have been happening to Daire Santos. Animals follow her, crows mock her, and glowing people appear out of nowhere. Worried that Daire is having a nervous breakdown, her mother packs her off to stay in the dusty plains of Enchantment, New Mexico with a grandmother she’s never met.
There she crosses paths with Dace, a gorgeous guy with unearthly blue eyes who she’s encountered before...but only in her dreams. And she’ll get to know her grandmother—a woman who recognizes Daire’s bizarre episodes for what they are. A call to her true destiny as a Soul Seeker, one who can navigate between the worlds of the living and the dead. Her grandmother immediately begins teaching her to harness her powers—but it’s an art that must be mastered quickly. Because Dace’s brother is an evil shape-shifter who’s out to steal her powers. Now Daire must embrace her fate as a Soul Seeker and find out if Dace is one guy she’s meant to be with...or if he’s allied with the enemy she’s destined to destroy.

Awesome guest post! I think the spirit animal idea is really cool. If I had to choose, I think I would be either Raven or Wolf. I can't wait to read Fated!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the guest post! This is awesome! I'm really looking forward to reading Fated. I'd totally want a horse as my spirit animal.
ReplyDeleteThis book looks amazing! I really want to read it, and now I want to even more!
ReplyDeleteGreat post! Wolf is probably my spirit animal, although I sure could use some guiding from Raven :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful post! The world of The Soul Seekers seems very interesting. I love the way which Alyson Noël writes and I can't wait to read Fated.
ReplyDeleteAwesome post! I really cant wait to read this book! :-D
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a great book I have read all of Alyson Noels books and love them! What a great post thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read this book! I've read a few of Alyson Noel's books. :) I think my spirit animal would be horse or eagle. ^_^
ReplyDeleteLove the cover!
ReplyDeleteI hadn't really decided whether I would pick up this book or not, but now I'm so in! I love thinking about what animals represent and definitely believe that when they cross your path they are sending a message to you. Based on this list I think my spirit animal would be a wolf - which is kind of awesome because I've always felt drawn to wolves (not physically of course, because then I'd be dead...).
ReplyDeleteWhat a great guest post!! I'm really looking forward to this read. The premise is really promising. Plus, I'm familiar with this author!
ReplyDeleteVery fun and interesting post.
ReplyDeleteI've read this book and enjoyed it very much. Thanks for a fun guest post on the different animal guides!
