Protecting the young and those weaker than themselves. Seahorses can also be a bridge between the Spirit Water World and the Living World.
Whale Totem:
Whales are the world's largest mammals, and the Blue Whale is the largest creature on Earth! These warm-blooded creatures have blubber to insulate and store food they need. Whale bones are soft and porous, enabling them to store food in the form of oil, unlike land mammals whose bones are hard. The softness of their bones enables them to grow to an enormous size and still float in the water. Underwater, whales don't have good eye sight, but they have excellent hearing and use a technique called "echo location" to communicate with other whales. By using their powerful tail flukes to steer and propel them, they are able to utilize their fins to twist and turn about in the water.
Having been born with a protective coat of blubber, whales know how important insulation can be. They understand the sacred power of water and realize the importance of taking time out to breathe. Their sensitivity to sound and movement connects them to the core energy of primal life.
Whale reintroduces us to our creative and intuitive energies to show us a talent we've forgotten about or haven't been aware existed. People with this totem are able to understand the ancient language of "energy vibrations," and are able to distinguish where others are truly coming from. Whale asks us to recall our past and listen to its stories so we can creatively heal old wounds.
Penguin Totem:
Sacrifice. Self-discipline. Self-maintenance. Aesthetic Appearance. Water Mastery. Air Mastery. Uncommon Grace. Dreams. Slipping Between Worlds. Determination.
The penguin - mostly found in the southern hemisphere - is one of the most highly specialized birds/animals alive today, they have completely sacrificed the ability to fly, developed flippers and their feathers have evolved into flattened feather shafts. They are a streamlined bird with a thick layer of blubber. They are generally coastal, nesting on the ground in flat surfaces, burrows or crevices,
Penguins are awkward on land and brilliant swimmers underwater. They are adapted to deep-diving (their heartbeat slows to 1/5 of its normal rate), and can stay underwater for long periods of time. The penguin's dense plumage is waterproofed with an oil gland at the base of the tail. Penguins - regardless of species - leave the sea to molt their feathers. During this time, they abstain entirely from food. Some penguins will also completely fast when feeding their chicks, compromising their own health to ensure the health of their progeny.
