Step 1
Use meditation and visualization methods to connect with these animal spirits. Find a quiet location, get comfortable and relax by doing some slow deep breathing. When you feel relaxed, visualize yourself either in the woods or a cave and ask the animal spirit to come to you then wait for it to reveal itself (see Resources). Note that the animal spirit may not appear the first few times you use this technique. Continue to practice this every day until there is a connection.

Step 2
Set your intention verbally or mentally that you wish to contact your spirit animal guide in your dreams. Before going to sleep, silently repeat your desire for communication with this power animal. Do this every night and keep a dream journal. See what animal keeps appearing in your dreams and then interpret whatever message it may convey to you by knowing about animal totems and their symbolism (see Resources).

Look for physical manifestations or symbols of the animal spirit in your daily life. Be attentive to your surroundings and notice if in a short time span you see an actual animal or its symbol in rapid succession. This may be your power animal trying to connect with you so ask for a message.
