![]() There are many Cherokee animal symbols and these can play a role over a person's entire lifetime this is called an animal totem. A different animal with a new message may appear every day this is called animal medicine. The Cherokee paid strong attention to the appearances of new animals in their day to day activities, always searching for the message that each animal might carry for them. The meaning, or medicine, of these animal symbols often has little to do with their relative strength, but more to do with their specific skills. Cherokee paid close attention to their surroundings. Every plant and animal had a symbolic meaning. They are all gifts from the Great Creator. Usually you will be drawn to your animal spirit and naturally know what it is. Sometimes you may have multiple animal spirits, and sometimes the animal spirit or spirits will change.
