I’ve been fascinated by these creatures for years but even more so lately. Having watched some sea otters at play in the New Orleans Audubon Aquarium last weekend, I thought this was interesting timing. I know this creature is becoming a totem for my life and I have a lot to learn from it.
Hopefully, you all will get something from this as well. Blessings!
Page of Vessels – Otter
Meaning: Equally at home on land or in water, the Otter’s ability to move between these spheres, perceived as the way between the worlds, made it especially sacred to the Celts. It is also sometimes listed as one of the oldest animals in the story of the rescue of the child god, Mabon.
Reading Points: As a dreamer and a visionary, you weave a spell that few can resist. Your loyalty, devotion, and sense of fair play mark you out as an individual whose will is tempered by a profound understanding of the otherworld.
Tracks & Pathways: Loyalty, devotion, study, willingness to serve, vision and contemplation, co-operation, and perceptiveness
