Power Animal of the Month - Penguin

Penguins are aquatic, flightless birds living almost exclusively in the southern hemisphere and are highly adapted to life in the water. They come back to the land for breeding in dense colonies, lay one or two eggs, and take several months to raise their chicks. Most penguins feed on krill, fish, and squid, caught while swimming underwater. Penguins can dive at incredible depth and are extremely sensitive to climate change. Many species of penguin spend most of their lives with large groups of other penguins. They do everything together: eating, swimming, hunting, and nesting. Penguins have a unique voice or call that they use to find their mates and chicks in large groups of sometimes a thousand penguins or more. Male and female penguins do not differ much when it comes to appearance. While male and female emperor penguins are virtually indistinguishable in size, their behavior is distinctive, particularly around mating season.

If your power animal is the penguin, you have the ability to create anything and everything you choose in life.  You are precise, resilient, and ambitious. You are great at analysis, problem solving, and inventing new ways of thinking since you have a superb memory for details. You are polite, proper, and never forget your manners. You’re a very caring, patient, and protective parent. You understand the concept of teamwork and utilize it constantly. Whether you’re male or female, you’re comfortable with your inner masculine and feminine aspects. You have a remarkable capacity to endure even the harshest of conditions. The penguin knows exactly where they are going and what they are trying to accomplish. The penguin can navigate comfortably between the waking and dreaming worlds. Penguins symbolize the depths of feelings and intuition.
