My Totem? Help Me In Its Selection....?

Question

I just finished watching one of my favorite movies, "Dances with Wolves," in witch the white, "longknife" protagonist - John Dunbar, is given his Souix (Dakota) name. After some reflection of what would relate my personal life essense to others, the best I can come up with is "Seeks-to-improve-human-thought...." which hardly has much of a romantic tone to it. And, despite my 'preoccupation' with bringing human reasoning to a more accomplished level, I am, in fact, an incurrable romantic... there is this sense of deep loss for humanity ( and our humanities) moving pall mall into a future for which it is ill-prepared... due to any number of factors, but mainly due to that ubiquitous ailment of "constricted awareness."
So, is there an animal that seeks to aid humans despite their lack of reflexive & anticipatory thought... that can empathize with their "predicament," but would like to shake up their often destructive, and counter-productive habituated behavioral attributes. What?

More clearly, I seek to find a totem that epitomizes my sense of "high purpose" in this life: the totem must be emblematic of a reflexive aptitude... moderating, equilibrating, synthesizing, synergizing, and "tensegrital" (focused on working toward shared goals & values). If an animal, it would have to be a social animal, and one that cooperates - finding & fostering symbiotic/ harmonious relationships within its environment or "domains." Coral is one animal that comes to mind, but not particularly "animated." I've thought about the porpose family eg, dolphins, but it feels like happenstance. So I am seeking ideas/ food for thought relating to the desired qualities of my totem; much depends upon me affinities toward any prospective totems. I am seeking a vision that will alos bring healing and a sense of eventual resolve to the difficuties - "direction & deliverance with a deified twist." Hopefully, it will convey senses of the eternal God - Man relationship... rational & passionate.

Don't choose it, let it choose you.

Before you go to sleep tonight repeat 5 times that: "My Power Animal will come to me in my dreams tonight"

Soon as you wake up the next morning note down what animals were in your dreasm adn what they were doing. Choose the one that speaks most to you

To be sincere, I suppose enhancement is a well PvP spec at greater phases. At lessen phases, I'm beautiful certain it is ele when you plan on seeking to most sensible the harm meter. Sorry, I slightly PvP so it is difficult to inform that's the first-rate. This hyperlink might aid out a lot more lol. For PvE, you do not have to drop totems as traditionally except you desire to spice up your stats up. In dungeons,totems might be desired. Enhancement is certainly the first-rate leveling spec. At stage seventy five, it's going to be a lot simpler to stage elemental.

J-Boy is right, you don't choose your totem(s), it chooses you. A quick way to find your totem(s) is simply think of the animal that most appeals to you. This was the case with me when I started looking for my totem(s), I LOOOVED wolves. When i decided that the wolf was my totem, it started coming to me in dreams and visions. I simply opened up to the animal I loved the most.

Another way however, is to go on a spiritual journey, which will find your totem but will be hard on you. People who do this tend to have a better connection with their totem(s).

Also notice I keep adding (s) to the end of totem. That's because you can have more than one totem (which by the way are called spirit guides at times). I have 4 so far, and their importance is usually the order you find them.

Also, once you have your totem, it is something special just for you and it to share. Don't go bragging to your friends or telling the whole world, it might offend it and it will leave you. Of course, if you really connect with somebody then you may tell them, but otherwise i don't reccomend it. I simply tell my 1st and main totem because we have a strong bond, and my life's purpose is to teach, so this exceptian is fine =)

hope you find yours, peace!
