The Significance of Turtle
I have a sizeable turtle tattoo, shown on the About Erika page, on the upper, middle area of my back. As a Native American totem animal, Turtle represents
groundedness, Mother Earth, strength, connection to nature, patience, wisdom, adaptability and protection.
For me, these meanings of Turtle and more inspired my tattoo, and as a guide for my healing and energy work, Turtle
can help remind you and me to trust our intuition, trust the pace that is best for us and stay grounded--even amid challenges.
The qualities that turtle and other totem animals represent in Native American cultures are viewed as medicine, which includes
messages, actions and perspective that we need to balance our physical, emotional and spiritual selves. I value Turtle
Medicine in my life and healing energy.
