How can I find my animal totem? And can you have more than one? I've always had a connection with wolves and horses since I was itty-bitty

I don't know much about animal totems, but I do have ideas about this subject:

Perhaps the animal totem finds you. Or perhaps is the animal that keeps attracting you. You say you have a connection to wolves and horses, so perhaps those are your animal symbols.

I'm a Christian. Once I heard a fellow Christian disparaging animal connections. However, I find these in the Bible. Jesus is referrred to as both a Lion and a Lamb in the Book of Revelation. (That might answer your question about having more than one animal.) Jacob, blessing his sons at the end of Genesis, connects most of them to animals, or perhaps plants. Satan is called a dragon, a serpent, a wolf, and a lion. Jesus calls Herod a fox.

My sister and I are Christians. She feels a constant attraction to turtles, and often wears jewelry or clothing with turtles. I like deerlike animals (deer, elk, moose), but I may have liked raccoons when I was a child.

And no, we are not having sex with these animals!

There may be a spiritual difference between animal totems and the animal symbolism used in the Bible, but I don't know the details.

Look on-line. I am sure there are places that sell them. As for how many, I think as long as you have the space and the money and you aren't neglecting other necessities, get as many as you want. My oldest daughter has a collection of ceramic unicorns. I bought her one for every birthday and Christmas (and any other time I felt like) until she turned 16 and decided I was embarrassing. So I backed off, but I am waiting until I get smart again, probably when she reaches 25 or 26.
