So, I got really into this whole “spiritual animal” thing lately. I mean, who hasn’t, right? It’s all over the internet, and I was curious to see what mine would be. I’m a Sagittarius, always have been, always will be. And, to be honest, I kind of hoped for something cool, like a wolf or a tiger. You know, something with a little bit of…oomph.
I started by looking up, you know, “spiritual animal for Sagittarius.” I figured it was the best place to start. I read through a bunch of different websites, it was pretty confusing. I found some common suggestions like:
- Cat: Independent and curious, it was said.
- Owl: Wise and intuitive, as some websites pointed out.
- Horse: Because, duh, Sagittarius is the archer, half-man, half-horse, right?
- Dolphin: Intelligent and social.
My Exploration
I spent a good chunk of my afternoon going down this rabbit hole. I even took some online quizzes. One of them told me I was a butterfly. A butterfly! I mean, they’re pretty and all, but I was expecting something a little more… substantial. I guess it’s supposed to represent transformation and freedom, which I can kind of see, being a Sagittarius and all. We do love our freedom.
Then, I thought, maybe I should look at this from a different angle. So I started thinking about what I value as a Sagittarius. We’re known for being adventurous, optimistic, and independent. So I started looking up animals that represent those qualities, and I mean not just the animals directly related to Sagittarius.
I considered the cat for a while. They’re definitely independent, and they always land on their feet. They seem to have a good sense of adventure, too, always exploring. But then, I thought, they are not really optimistic, are they? Maybe more like realistic.
The owl… well, they’re wise, sure, but they are not really the “adventurous” type. I spent some time thinking about the horse, which is understandable, but still felt kinda off.
After all that digging, all that reading, and all those quizzes, I was a bit annoyed. I felt like none of these animals truly represented me as a Sagittarius. Or maybe they did, and I just didn’t like it? I don’t know. It’s all very subjective, isn’t it?
So, I decided to do something a little different. I went for a walk. Just a long walk to clear my head. And you know what? It worked. I realized that maybe it’s not about finding the perfect animal, the one animal that captures every aspect of being a Sagittarius. Maybe it’s about the journey, the exploration, the constant search for meaning. That’s very Sagittarius, isn’t it?
In the end, I still don’t know what my spiritual animal is. Maybe I have a bit of cat in me, a bit of owl, a bit of horse, a bit of dolphin. And maybe a little bit of butterfly, too. Who knows? I guess I’m a mix of all of them. And you know what? I’m okay with that. It’s kind of fun not knowing, right? It leaves room for more adventures, more discoveries. And that’s what being a Sagittarius is all about.
