What is the value of knowing your totem animal? I mean, except

How do I figure out my totem animal?

I don't know the actual way to figure it out. I found mine because it was too obvious in my dreams, hallucinations and a few trips I had.

I want to know my totem animal, too. Thing is, I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to do some fucking hairy things first. I mean, I'm going have to get rid of this western mentality, then figure out how to make peace with my family in a way that they know I'll be distant- but not know why. Then I'm actually going to have to figure out how this is going to fit into my life. And, I'm hoping, it will be a whole new life. Nothing critical at first, just sensory things, I'm guessing.

Im divided into two aspirations, two wills. My totem animal being the crocodile, should I be more like him to feel better? Should I bite life without worrying about the consequences?

Or should you be the hedgehog, to feel more secure in your own skin? Perhaps you should ball up at life's trials, only unleashing yourself at the odor of harsh paint strippers?

found mine by "accident" at first. wasn't what i wanted. winds up i've learned a lot about myself by learning his ways. recently one of his kind came into my life in a very material way, and living with him's taught me patience. go figure.
