The Chosen Totem
= Third Edition =
Greetings from nature, Mortals. My name is Louisa “Malila” Barrows, the owner of a Raccoon Totem from the Totem Bearer group. Why is my group important until I decided to tell you about it here, you may wonder? Well, in this blog post, I will explain about each possible totem that a Totem Bearer could possess. Other than the meaning of the totem, I will also provide several fun facts related to the animals. Do the actual animals have any relations with the meaning of the Totem itself? Read through and find out by yourself!
In this third, I will bring another bird up to your attention. This bird is basically a big chicken - I assume everyone knows what a chicken is. They are also native to North America, so basically ... here! They eat berries, insects, and the adults can even eat small reptiles and acorns. Can you guess what animal that is?
Turkey
A turkey, exactly! As a Totem, this animal honors nature and the Earth. Hence, it will encourage the owner to do the same. The owners of this totem would have a decent relationship with their environment, no matter where they are. Plus, the owners are usually always grateful with what they have in life. Sounds awesome, don't you think?
Now, time for the real life fun facts about turkeys. Apparently, turkeys can be considered similar to dogs. They are sensitive, intelligent, and sociable. They are very affectionate towards each other, and they have strong and lasting bonds. They can also learn the details of an area up to 1,000 acres wide, WOW! And, in ancient Mexican cultures like the Mayans, Aztecs, and Toltecs, turkeys are considered sacred. They even referred to the animals as "Great Xolotl" which more or less means "jewelled birds". Precious birds!
So … between the meaning of Turkey Totem and Turkey Fun Facts, I feel like the fun facts really show how caring Turkeys are. As mentioned, they are sociable animals, which could probably show why they could have good relationships with nature. And then, the part where Turkeys are known to be able to learn a location up to 1,000 acres in size clearly shows that they honor the nature and their environment really well. I think we should learn a thing or two from this animal!
That is all for “The Chosen Totem” this time! Make sure to check out the next edition of “The Chosen Totem” for more fun facts about the totem and animal version. Nature blesses you!
