Skunk as Totem Animal Part 2

A powerful totem with magical and mystical qualities, the skunk enables us to get in touch with our inner instincts. They teach us how to comprehend a warning . Many times in our lives our inner instinct senses trouble and conflict but our minds and logic get in the way and overshadow that still small voice.

By listening and honoring that part within ourselves, we could avoid many circumstances that cause grief or turmoil.  The strip that runs from head to tail in the animal is linked to the creative forces within. Those who have learned to work with their totam animal are able to direct their creative energy into life situations and cause more positive outcomes.

Aromatherapy works well for the person who possess this medicine and since the skunk goes quietly about their buisness in life, those with this medicine should do the same.  Because of the intense energy the skunk holds without much effort on his part, people with this totem can have difficulty communicating in relationships. They can either appear too meek or too frightening and overbearing.

Finding that balance is a challenge to those with skunk medicine. When skunk enters your life, listen to that inner self and heed any voices of warning or direction that may come.
