This small, nimble creature carries a deep symbolic meaning and is revered in many cultures as a messenger between worlds.

 

It moves between the dimensions of heaven and earth and is often seen as the guardian of the forest’s hidden secrets.

 

The spirit animal squirrel teaches us to live in harmony with the rhythm of nature and conveys the importance of preparation and foresight. At the same time, it teaches us the art of letting go, as even the squirrel does not find every buried nut again. Some of those forgotten nuts grow into new trees, symbolizing the give and take in the natural cycle.

 

When a squirrel appears in our life, it can indicate a time of change and the associated need to remain flexible and adaptable.
