I am currently in the process of migrating the content shared here to a series of new websites hosted at shirleytwofeathers.com.

As you explore this site, you may find links to a "page not found" instead of something cool and magickal. For this I apologize. I am very working hard behind the scenes to restore those pages along with a link to their homes on my new website where they can be viewed in full.

Animal Symbols in Magic

Animal magic is use of an animal for its symbolism and energies. Animals can also be animal spirit guides. Similar to spirit guides, they are used for their strengths, skills, and guidance. Using animal symbols in your spell work can be very effective. They can be used to represent persons or situations, and/or to add strength and ability to what it is you are working to achieve. Here is a listing of many common animals and the general properties associated with them. You can also use this list as an aid when decifering dreams, omens, shapes in tea leaves, etc.


  • Alligator-aggression, survival, adaptability
  • Ant-team player, worker
  • Armadillo-active, nocturnal, protection
  • Bat-guardian of the night, cleaner
  • Bear-power, adaptability
  • Bear Paw-strength, mobility
  • Beaver-builder, gatherer
  • Bobcat-fierce, loner, intensity
  • Buffalo-sacredness, life builder...
... I am so sorry to do this to you, but this post has been moved to my new website, Magickal Ingredients, and can be found in its entirety here: Animal Symbols In Magick
