Dolphin totem - characteristics and meaning. Dolphin - breath of life totem Dolphin totem meaning

Dolphin! Breath with me! Let's inhale Divine energy from the Universe together and in the rhythm of our breathing we will merge into one Whole...

Dolphin - Totem of the Breath of Life.

A long time ago, a Dolphin splashed under the Moon in the ocean, and our grandmother Luna looked at him for a long time and asked:
- Dolphin, baby, don’t you like the rhythms I created? Why don't you use them?

Which? Where?

Yes, the waves in which you splash and the tides created by me ebb and flow!

I like it! What should we do with them? I am a simple earthly creature and get simple joys from life. - said the Dolphin noisily flapping its fins on the silvery surface of the water.

Don't you want to experience other worlds and different aspects of time?

I would like to, but I am not a Shaman, but a simple earthly being and I don’t know how I can make such journeys, besides, I value that Life in which there are no difficulties!

Well, I created my own rhythms for all simple creatures! Now everyone can synchronize themselves with them and, in a trance of breathing rhythm with the Universe, become One Whole with It - where there is no Past and Future, but there is a complete Present. After all, you still breathe like all creatures and you don’t see any difficulties in it...

And so Grandma Luna taught Dolphin to listen to the surf of the waves and breathe with them: Inhale deeply, rising above the water and holding your breath - diving into the wave of your intuition and coming out again - release the air from the depths of your entire insides, with the sound of a wave hitting the rock... A mighty breath The Ocean of Life Energy, so that all the organs of the body shrink to give room for its absorption.... and exhale - with the whole body, with the sound of the surf....

Practicing in this way, the Dolphin soon felt complete unity with the Universe, where he saw many different Worlds and aspects of time. There he met other creatures who were extremely interested in the inhabitants of the Earth, who are all missing to unite the Universe into One Integral Being!

Many people think that a dolphin is a fish, but in fact, a dolphin is a mammal. They feed their children with milk, like all other animals of this class and humans.

The fact that the dolphin lives in water is very symbolic for this Totem, because according to all ancient myths, Life originated in water. Water is a Symbol of the Creative Environment. We are born in the waters of our mother's womb and undergo a creative evolution of our maturation in order to emerge from it as a unique person. Water is also a symbol of Creativity, Emotions and Sexuality itself. It is a necessary element of all living things. This is a Symbol of New Space and New Forces.

The Dolphin Totem opens up new creative powers and expands the space of the Mind. Water is necessary for all living things, as well as breathing! There are a huge number of breathing techniques that balance health, psyche and open up new areas for us for emotional and spiritual growth. For example, by imitating the breathing of a dolphin, you can easily dissolve a bad mood and stress, gaining strength and Vital Energy. This type of breathing is especially beneficial for people with breathing problems and diseases of the respiratory system.

The dolphin is an expert in breathing and swimming through rhythm.
Learning to swim with the breath of a dolphin - this Totem will be your guide to new realities of your being.

He also has the gift of manipulating sound. Sound, breath and water - all this together is considered the source of Life. It is not without reason that it is believed that first there was the Word! Those. Sound it!

Sound is the Expression of Creativity. Sound comes from the womb of Silence and expresses the creative potential of thoughts and emotions. By learning to create internal sounds, together with the Dolphin Totem, you will learn the rare gift of self-expression outside.
To create sound, you need to breathe, and water is a powerful resource of the Creative Reservoir, from which you can draw Strength for your maturation, self-sufficiency and self-expression.

Hello Olanga! I read your “Animal Totem Trails” with great interest. Your life is amazing. These stories give you a lot to think about. Animals stand at the very source of religions, and therefore spirituality.
This topic is very close to me, I am interested in myths and folklore.
I invite you to my page.
Sincerely,

Hello, friends!

Today we will talk about the totem animal dolphin. Perhaps no other mammal carries as much positive energy as this cheerful sea creature.

It is not surprising that as a totem it has powerful healing energy and is able to restore the lost joy of life. Let's plunge into the culture of different countries to get acquainted with the totemic meaning of this beautiful animal.

Dolphin totem among different nations

As an accompaniment of the gods, the dolphin is present in the myths of Ancient Greece. He accompanied Aphrodite, Apollo, Poseidon, and the latter was often depicted with dolphins, which symbolized the sea element and power. Also in Greece, he personified salvation and healing.

In Ancient Egypt, the dolphin was believed to bring good luck and was a favorite talisman of sailors. It is known that he was an attribute of Isis, and therefore was also the personification of water and motherhood. There is even a monument to dolphins in Hougaard.

The ancient Indians saw the sacred meaning of the dolphin as the embodiment of wisdom, energy and kindness, and the Celts believed that it brings freedom, joy, love of life and protects the element of water.

In Hinduism, the dolphin-like animal is associated with the god of love, Kama.

For early Christians, the dolphin was a symbol of Christ the Savior. And the dolphin, chained to an anchor, personified the crucifixion of Christ and the rebirth.

The image of kissing dolphins symbolizes good luck in love and happiness in family relationships.

Description of the animal

It is known that dolphins have very high intelligence, and they willingly make contact with humans. These are very intelligent creatures who, in addition, are not alien to emotions. They remember people, and are even able to take offense at those who treated them poorly.

They are playful and active, easy to train, quickly remember and learn.

These creatures, despite the fact that they live in water, breathe with their lungs, and when they sleep, one half of their brain is awake - this is necessary in order to float to the surface and take a breath of air. Dolphins are not fish, but mammals.

To navigate underwater, they use echolocation - ultrasound. Dolphins are able to distinguish each other by their voices, and for communication they use whistles and sounds similar to bird chirping.

It is known that dolphins often save drowning people, which is also why people treat them with such sympathy and see their image as a symbol of good luck.

This is not all that could be said about such amazing creatures, however, in this article we consider dolphins as a totem, and therefore we will need information about their properties primarily from this point of view.

How does it help as a patron?

The range of action of this totem is very wide, so you can turn to it with a variety of difficulties. Here I will write only about the main ones.

Characteristics of a person

The dolphin is associated with the elements of water and air, so people with this patron animal are emotional and intuitive. They sense the mood of others well, the true motives of people do not escape them, and they know how to calm a person at the moment of an emotional outburst.


You can read about what the different elements mean and how to understand which one is yours.

They are good friends and tend to collaborate and work in teams. They know how to smooth out conflicts in a team, but do not tolerate rudeness from management. Such a person will never work where he is treated poorly, but goodwill is a very good motivation for him.

Dolphins are cheerful, spontaneous and good-natured, and people sometimes take advantage of this. They are extroverted by nature and cannot be alone for long. They react very sensitively to coldness in communication, instantly get upset and withdraw into themselves.

Dolphin children are easy to learn, they are very inquisitive, but if the material is presented dryly and uninterestingly, they are quickly distracted and may seem frivolous and lazy.

Such people have a penchant for musical art, they love to improvise, try themselves in new genres of music and willingly share the products of their creativity with people.

Dolphin men are energetic, lively and optimistic. They rarely get discouraged and are always ready for new achievements. They value care and variety, and are instinctively drawn to affectionate and balanced women.

Women are calm, love children and are ready to devote themselves completely to their family, but they also need new experiences. If a partner does not pay attention to them for a long time, then they may even go on a trip without him.

Both women and men are very easy-going, and if they find a good company, they are ready to go with it to the ends of the earth. They value friendship very much and can forgive their friends almost everything.

Such people are very lucky. They rarely have to get out of difficult situations, as they have a unique ability to avoid getting into them. They are easy-going, but very vulnerable.


If you want to find an approach to a person with this animal ally, try not to burden him with problems, respond to his ideas and suggestions and never raise your voice at him.

Conclusion

Friends, in this article we talked about a wonderful totem - the dolphin. I wish you good luck in your practice. Share your thoughts in the comments, subscribe to new blog articles,

And I’m not saying goodbye, because we’ll see you soon in a new post!

This marine mammal is adored by many. The dolphin is a unique symbol of the seas and oceans - expanses of water that so attract us with their beauty and sense of boundless freedom.

Dolphin people also sincerely love freedom and water - these two concepts are inseparable for them and are reflected in the perception of life. They need water at a deeper level than “ordinary people.” It is from it that they draw their strength and energy. Dolphin people structure their way of life in such a way that there is as much water as possible: they have fountains at home as decoration, the walls are decorated with paintings of expanses of water, and they try to arrange their place of residence in a place where there will be a river nearby ( bay, sea, ocean or at least lake).

In the case when the main home of dolphin people, by the will of fate, is located in the city center, they try at the first opportunity to go to the nearest body of water and/or visit swimming pools (and give them free rein, they will go for a swim there every evening after work) .

And, naturally, such a vital need for water (and this element symbolizes the state of altered consciousness and dreams) is reflected in dolphin people at the level of the world of subtle matters. The transition to other worlds or “dreamwalking” is a natural process for them. And the transition itself to such states is very simple and even commonplace for them - this ability is given to them at birth. These strong abilities in human dolphins are further enhanced by the fact that dolphins never fall asleep completely, and during sleep they are in a certain borderline state (they can breathe only when they are conscious). The very way dolphins breathe is very interesting: they do not know how to breathe under water, and in order to stay in the “abyss of the sea” for a long time, they can hold their breath for a long time. Thanks to this specificity, dolphin people are predisposed to a wide variety of breathing techniques, which can help them both when immersed in meditation and in solving psychological problems. There are different ways of working: for example, with the help of “correct” breathing you can get rid of stress and bring your physical condition back to normal (qigong, etc., etc.).

Dolphin people have unique abilities of “mental hearing” (they “got this” from the sound location system of dolphins) - their sensitivity to sound perception is very high. Dolphin people can hear sounds that go on in the background during a telephone conversation and quickly identify them, suddenly unexpectedly informing the interlocutor of his location. They also perfectly navigate the “thin shell of our world” - hearing the voices of various Spirits and entities.

In addition, dolphin people have innate abilities to “orient themselves” - they always know where they are and with them you can safely go to “uncharted lands”, since it is impossible to get lost when you are close to a dolphin person.

Dolphin people are wonderful friends who love communication and are always happy to help people around them, promptly coming to the aid of those in need and doing everything in their power without further ado. They love people and big companies, easily fitting into any team.

Another interesting property of them is curiosity. They are constantly in a state of learning and learning something new (dolphin people enjoy going on all kinds of excursions and love watching relevant TV shows).

Dolphin people are highly intelligent, have a sharp mind, brilliant memory and excellent ability to analyze, which helps them in the process of work. They will easily and quickly move up the career ladder, provided that they have chosen a specific type of work where their analytical mind, good memory and quick intelligence can be fully revealed.

The Zoroastrian 32-year cycle of ancient astrology assigns each year a specific totem in the form of a patron animal. The representative of the 29th solar year is the totem animal Dolphin. He owns the dates: 1934, 1966, 1998, as well as the future year 2030. He follows the Fox totem, and next is the Boar.

The patron of the totem is Vohu-Man, which means a good thought. Planet – Mercury. The period of activity is all year round. Key definitions are the power of breath and sound. The symbolism of the sign is an allegory of salvation, a friend of man, erotic deities. The dolphin is the totem of the Breath of Life. Blue color. The zodiac sign favored by the Dolphin is Gemini. The totem is also a symbol of the zodiac sign Scorpio.

You can often notice the image of dolphins looking in different directions, which means the duality of the forces of nature, a combination of the directions of involution and evolution. A pair of dolphins symbolizes the forces of balance, the balance between extremes. An anchor depicted next to an animal indicates prudence, which comes from a combination of speed and slowness.

The dolphin symbolized salvation and eternal life in early Christianity and was associated with Jesus Christ - the savior and creator. A dolphin chained to an anchor or pierced by a trident also symbolized the crucified Christ. In the mythology of the ancient Greeks, he appears as the sacred messenger of the gods, the embodiment of the image of the sea element. This animal was present next to the gods, and dual traits were attributed to it. The image of Dolphin with Apollo indicated the sun and light, and with Aphrodite or Eros - the properties of the moon. Hinduism depicted the dolphin under the guise of the horse Kama, the god of love.

Main meaning of Dolphin

Life originated in the primordial ocean. Water is a symbol of creative power, altered states of consciousness, passion and sexuality. The dolphin, as an inhabitant of two elements, sea and air, is able to penetrate into other dimensions. He also understands the manifestation of the hidden depths of the soul. The basis for such capabilities is the dolphin’s special breathing technique, which gives it the opportunity to remain at depth for a long time.

As you know, special breathing techniques allow you to change consciousness, gain new abilities, access new energies, and heal your body and soul. The dolphin carries the knowledge of how to use Manna, the life force, through the breath. The totem encourages you to follow the energy rhythms of nature. It's time to exhale negative energy, making room for a new, clean life.

Breathing also helps create sounds. The right combination of breath and sound can influence water, allowing it to form what you want. The dolphin has sound location technology and can provide this knowledge. Sound, breath, water are the primary sources of life forms. The work of prayers and affirmations is based precisely on this principle.

On the physical plane, this totem helps people with respiratory diseases and blood pressure disorders. Controlling your inhalation and exhalation is the key to gaining Dolphin power. If you imitate its rhythm, you can penetrate the primordial sources of your own energy.

Life mission

His main goal in life is peacemaking and the fight for justice. His special instinct for people in need of support tells him the right path. He helps them realize their desires and aspirations. The totem does not care about a person’s nationality, religion, or political affiliation. He is able to be on the same wavelength with any person.

At the same time, the delicate Dolphin does not require reciprocal gratitude and never acts demonstratively. He is driven by the realization that he is doing an important, necessary thing. Material benefits and honors are not as important for them as for others. People value Dolphin for his aristocracy, high intelligence, truthfulness, and sociability. But due to his high altruism, they do not always understand such an idealistic view of the world.

The dolphin is a wanderer who is not attached to a particular place, but is able to find a kindred spirit everywhere. His intelligence deserves special attention. This year, especially insightful people are born who are capable of transmitting thoughts at a distance. An extraordinary mind is combined with secrecy; their true intentions are always shrouded in mystery. Dolphins have a philosophical view of the world, are mysterious and enigmatic, and love to quietly observe everything around them.

Personal life

In his personal life, Dolphin's love does not bring much joy to the family because of his readiness to suddenly take off. He is always on the go, doing business, so he has no plans to create a large family with children. However, Dolphin is an exemplary spouse and a gentle parent. He tries to make his family ideal, forgiving the shortcomings of his loved ones and showing tact. You can strengthen your relationship with him only by taking part in his good deeds or becoming the object of his tutelage. Dolphin knows how to maintain friendship, always helping everyone.

Appearance

The traits of marine mammals are usually not reflected in the appearance of people born under the auspices of this totem. They can be recognized only by their behavior and character traits. People born under the influence of the Dolphin totem have a powerful, confident look. They are characterized by smooth, refined movements. Their speech is smooth. Dolphins have an excellent physique. Celebrities born in the year of the Dolphin: I. Bunin, Sophia Loren, V. I. Lenin, Brigitte Bardot, A. Kuprin, S. Lemeshev, Elvis Presley, I. Kurchatov.

Year of the Dolphin

According to the Zoroastrian horoscope, this totem represents the 29th solar year of the cycle. The color of the year is green. The main characteristic is the time of establishing peace, the triumph of reason and good thoughts. This year brings big plans and travel. Many philosophers are born. It is good to engage in missionary activity, to turn to higher ideas, wisdom, and humanism. This year is also rich in mysterious phenomena that accompany the distinction between Light and Darkness.

Antitotem

The opposite of the Dolphin is the Shark (Crucian Carp) under the rule of Akimana. The description of the antipode speaks of such properties as anger, devouring everything indiscriminately for the sake of acquiring power. The shark is capable of destroying even friends; its vengefulness knows no bounds. All these qualities are fueled by powerful performance. The inability to restrain one's anger, evil character, greed and deceit of the antitotem lead to the blurring of the boundaries between good and evil.

The appearance of people with the opposite totem is almost no different from the Dolphin, so it is necessary to closely observe the thinking and behavior of such individuals. A year under the rule of the antitotem brings eternal chaos of strife, destruction, uprisings, and wars. Many sects and false teachings appear, and atheism flourishes.

The spirit animal Dolphin manifests itself when it is time to accept new life. It is necessary to explore various breathing techniques and spend more time in the fresh air. The Dolphin totem encourages you to have fun and explore the world around you. But it is more important to understand the formation of your life under the influence of your own thoughts and words. Imitating the Dolphin means generating waves of joy, a feeling of integrity with the whole world.

1934, 1966, 1998, 2034

People born in these years work hard for the good of society all their lives. At the same time, they are very rarely famous and never strive to obtain material values. All they need is the knowledge that they are taking part in a good cause. They make excellent peacemakers and honest fighters for truth. Dolphins often help those who need help, and they do this delicately and quietly, never demanding any reward in return. Often, even their relatives do not know them completely, but value them for their inherent honesty, selflessness and directness.

According to Zoroastrian astrology, adherents of this sign do not settle in one place for a long time: they are wanderers who are able to find a soul mate even in the farthest corner of the Earth. They are not at all afraid of hard work, but, on the contrary, do this work willingly and with pleasure. Well done, what a guy.

Dolphin men and women always make very devoted husbands (wives) and excellent fathers (mothers). They dream of seeing their family ideal, and at the same time they can come to terms with some of the shortcomings of their loved ones, although they will tactfully and correctly try to correct them.

According to the Zoroastrian horoscope, most representatives of this sign are distinguished by their imperious, stern gaze, smooth, graceful movements and quick decision-making. They clearly separate white and black, and always come to the rescue in difficult times.

If the noble Dolphin displays the features of the antitotem of the Crucian, he becomes angry, vindictive, sows quarrels and destruction everywhere, and tends to distort the truth. What is left in its wake is ruin and chaos.

The years of this animal are associated with the cessation of wars, the establishment of peace and the triumph of reason on the planet. In the worst case, with the rise of heresy, natural disasters and bloody uprisings.
