The Turtle Power Animal

There are over 350 species of land turtles and 7 species of water turtles. They are the oldest living reptile having been around over 200 million years. The story of the tortoise and the hare shows the nature of the turtle’s slow and steady pace. They are slow moving on land but fast and agile in water. Turtles live near deep streams, estuaries, and marshes. Because of their slower metabolism and long life, they are examples of endurance and longevity.

The turtle is determined and self-reliant with a remarkable ability to stay focused. They have exceptional navigation skills and can find their way through almost anything. Turtles have a strong attachment to home and always end up returning there. They know how to draw on their inner resources to survive. Besides moving slowly, turtles take their time to make decisions. Their shell protects their body and their ancient wisdom. Turtles can sense the vibrations of the earth and the water and are closely connected to Mother’s Earth’s energy.

The turtle is a symbol for patience, persistence, endurance, safety, and stability. Their message: slow down and take your time. To learn more, check out our website and get a power animal reading.
