Hello there! Your sign is very interesting.

The Otter

Clan - butterfly
Spirit Keeper - Spirit Keeper of the North
Moon - Rest and cleansing Moon
Crystal or mineral - Silver
Tree or plant - Aspen
Color - silver

The charming and friendly otter is the most playful of animals in the wild. Both river and sea otters are happy when entertaining others. Otters are members of the weasel family who depend on the waters of large lakes, rivers, and the sea. Sea otters almost became extinct when people killed them for fur. All otters have large appetites. The highly intelligent otter is one of the few animlas that can utilize tools, for instance, using rocks to open shells. Otters have a wide vocal range consisting of chirps, squeals, screeches, hiccups, chuckles, and hisses, and their calls can carry for a mile. when not eating, hunting, playing, or sunning themselves, otters sleep.

If you were born under the sing of the otter, you are one of the most interesting and attractive people. You can be shy, sensitive,gentle, and patient, or enthusiasitic and lively with a tendency to be an exhibitionist. Both types are very strong willed and forceful in their own way. You can be very opinionated with strong convictions, and you will fight for what you believe in, arguing vehemently for what you believe to be true.

People born under the sign of the otter are farsighted and innovative. They are generally without prejudice and quite tolerant of the points of view of others. These individauls can see valid argument even when they disagree with it, and being objective, they never get waylaid by being too close to an issue or a person.

Those born under the sign of the otter are humane. Known to be frank and outspoken, they are serious and genial companions. In short, these people are refined, idealistic, and romantic, but also practical. Personable and likable, they are quick in mind and quick to respond. They rarely wear their hearts on their sleeves, but once committed, those born under the sign of the otter are committed for life.

The Beaver-April 20-May 20 (Taurus):

A time for Growth

Element- Earth

Clan- Tortoise

Wind- East Wind



Beaver Character: Industrious, untiring, and sensible in all things. Beaver people need for security, and stability. They relish comfort and sensuality, and rarely take risks.



That looks very accurate actually. If I may, I would like to give you additional information.

Crystal or mineral - chrysocolia
tree or plant - blue camas
color - blue

Native Americans valued the beaver's fur and meat and used the castoreum to effect healing. When the Europeans arrived in North America, they encouraged the Native Americans to hunt more beavers so that they could trade goods for the beaver fur.

Working on a spiritual vibration with the beaver can teach you about stability, balance, tradition, and the true value of things. The beaver also shows us how to be affectionate, hardworking, and self reliant.

People born under the sign of the beaver tend to be slow, methodical, practical, and reserved. They are also stolid, tenacious, and determined, possessing tremendous willpower and self-discipline. These people are inclined to stick to tried and tested methods of thinking, and their greatest satisfaction derives from results produced directly by their own personal efforts, rather than by those of others.

Roots are very important to the people born under this sign, and they need a sense of permanence and security. They are usually very easygoing and slow to anger, but once roused, they can have a fierce temper; they can be very difficult to deal with when they get angry. Loyalty is very important to these individuals, and a true friend will speak well of their great genorosity. Honesty, integrity, and dependablity are noticeable characteristics of people born under this sign. They are extremely sensible where money is concerned.

These people have what baseball players would call the "safest hands" in the zodiac. This means that they literally do no drop anything - be it fly balls, plates, or tools. People born under the sign of the beaver can work as well with their hands as beavers themselves work with their paws, and virtually all people born under the beaver sign could erect a dam and catch fish in it with great efficiency if they put their minds to it.

Hello there!

The Raven

clan - butterfly
spirit keeper - spirit keeper of the west
moon - ducks-fly moon
Crystal or mineral - jasper
tree or plant - mullein
color - brown

The raven is a black bird with a wedge-shaped tail. Although ravens are found all over the world, they are most often found in the West. Their song is a loud croak, and they can sometimes become quite aggressive, although they are wary of others. Their diet consists of insects, and some eat snails and shellfish, which they drop from the air in order to break the shell. They are very group oriented and very defensive fo their territory. The raven holds tribal councils.

To Native Americans, ravens are considered birds of balance between man and nature. Almost all tribes have stories and legends relationg to the raven, usually explianing why it is blakc. In all of these legends, the raven begins as a white ird whose color is then changed. Sometimes this is said to be a punishment for wrongdoing, but other legends say it is a mark of rspect for the danger the bird undertook in an effort to help humans. There is a duality in the way that Native Americna peoples view these birds. To some the raven is a bad omen, but to others it is a sing of good luck. Ravens have been credited with both bringing back clouds and holding them away.

Those who are born under the sign of the raven are higly efficient individuals who put ideas into practice. They can be dynamic, but they may n ot always seize opportunities when they arise. Individuals born under this sign are pretty techsavvy people, so they are able ot learn and use the latest technology quite easily, and they can use it to their advantage. They try to achieve a balance in everything, so they tend to sit on the fence, weighing up all the pros and cons of a situation before making a decision. Ravens are very ambitious; they have great potential for new and successful enterprises.

People born under the sign hate discord or conflict and do not take kindly to those who cause troube. The don't hold grudges, but if someone hurts them, they will not forget it. But they can be very diplomatic, reasonable, and impartial, and they will often do anything for a peaceful life. They are often softly spoken, which can lend authority to anything they say.

Actually, that's your totem animal. To be technical. And everyone has six.

My mom is Cherokee and did mine when I was a teenager for me.

I can't remember all of mine, but they were all the creepy-crawly ones. laugh

Very true. Native American Indian Astrology is very complicated (although put in easy to understand ways) actually and very time consuming. On top of this each tribe does it different for each "medicine wheel" is also different.

I am only giving a introductory for most people are unfamiliar that Native Indians where far more advanced in a great many things that people realize.

but as we know every astrological reading is time consuming. I mentioned to do an actual reading of a person can take up to weeks to complete. With the many people who are interested, I couldn't possibly provide such time.

It is for fun and enjoyment.drinker

Hello beautiful. A funny picture you have up there. It made me laugh. Thankyou for the laughterdrinker


The Sturgeon

Clan - Thunderbird
Spirit keeper - The south
Moon - Ripe-berries Moon
Crystal or mineral - Garnet and iron
Tree or plant - Raspberry
Color - red

The sturgeon is considered to be the king of the fishes. It is a primitive fish that probably existed on earth long before the dinosaurs disappeared, so it has a long history. The sturgeon comes in a variety of sizes. Sturgeons found in the Great Lakes area were considered teh royalty of fishes among Native Americans. The Ojibwa people believe that the sturgeon represents depth and strength.

Working on a spiritual level with the sturgeon can teach you about determination, perseverance, depth, and knowledge.

This sign actually links to two different kinds of fish according to which Native American tradition one follows. The other fish is the salmon. This is another truly royal member of the fish family, as it is valued as a food item by just about everybody. Now, of course, salmon are farmed, but in the past, it took real skill to hunt and catch the salmon. even more so when one realizes that fishermen were frequently in competition with the grizzly bear for these prize fish. This fish is also associated with perseverance, as shown by its determination to swim upstream in order to spawn.

Individuals born under this sign are considered to be oen of the strongest signs in Native American astrology. They are dominant, spontaneious, creative, and extroverted. These people were born to lead. If people born under the sign are ver part of a team building exercise, just watch what happens. The idea of buckling down and being part of a team is aline to these individuals, so while they may pretend to be interested in the concept, sooner or later (usually sooner) they will put their foot down and take charge. At this point, they will relax and become happy, while everyone falls in behind them in an equally relaxed and happy manner. Now the team will happily achieve any task that you can dream up for them.

People born under this sign possess grace and dignity, and they have an expansive personality. Abmitious and strong willed, they are positive and confident in their abilities. These people know what htey want in life and they get it. They are not easily daunted, so they persist through the most formidable of circumstances.

Individuals born under this sign can be stubborn; they often refuse to listen to another persons opinions. Because of their positive nature, they will expect the best, and when things don't turn out as they anticipated, they react immediately and badly. If things go again them, their confidence can evaporate, and they can become extremely downhearted. At this time they need a loved one or trust friend to keep reminding them that they are valuable and that their opinions and actions are not wrong. Fortunately, their bouts of depression dissipate fairly quickly and these individuals soon recover their usual cheerful and demonstrative nature.

Now to your Native American sign. Remember this is not a complete reading. Those take weeks to do as I was told, which makes sense since each culture will also mention that a astrology of an individual is each time unique and special.

Here is a glimpse so to say...


The Flicker

Clan - Frog
Spirit Keeper - The south
Moon - Strong Sun Moon
Crystal or mineral - Carnelian
Tree or plant - Wild rose
Color - pink

The flicker is a beautiful colored bird. There are two kinds of flicker int he United States. The yellow-shafted flicker, found in the east, and the red-shafted flicker, found west of the Great Plains. Both types can be seen on farms and even suburubs. Flickers are drummers who play their songs on wood. Usually they drum on trees, but they can also drum on wooden houses, sometimes to extract insects, but sometimes just for the sheer joy of it. The flicker displays a magnificent talent for music!

Working spiritually with the flicker can teach you about communicating, music, joy, nurturing, courage, protection, and your connection with the universe.

Individuals born under the sign of the flicker, one of the most perplexing signs, can range from timid, shy, dull, and withdrawn to brilliant, friendly, and famous. They can have a wide range of emtoions, and they possess strong parental instincts. Fundamentally, people born under this sign are conservative and home loving by nature. They appreciate the security of a home base to which to retire when the stresses of life become too much to bear.

Individuals born under the sign of the flicker can appear uncompromising and obstinate, but this stance is often a facade that they use to hide insecurity. Their loved ones may see a different character, one with sympathy and sensitivity to others. In their personal relationships, these people are often a mixture of toughness and tenderness. They can be emotional, romantic, and loyal, on one side, and possessive and moody, on the other. When it comes to their love ones, especially small children and pets, nobody can be more caring.

Those born under the flicker sign can have closed minds, they can be opinionated, and they never forget an injury. They will also never allow others to forget an error. They are led by their emotions, and they will either be the best of the worst of friends. The overall nature of these individuals is deeply emotional. Although reserved, they possess sensitivity and sympathy. Rarely will they stand on pretence. What appears to be out in front is nothing more than a protective shell, but within its tough armor often resides an intuitive and needy individual who yearns for a deep exhange of love and understanding.
