We all have spirit guides. Some of us have met them and some of us haven’t. As this is Timberwolf HQ, this article is on the wolf as a spirit guide. The basic information was given to me by a long-time reader and friend of Timberwolf HQ. I wrote the article from his research. So sit back, relax and enjoy the information you are about to read.
We have all wondered what the qualities are of our spirit guides. There are many sites on the Internet which will give various information and interpretations. My reader has provided the following information about Brother wolf.
WOLF: Teacher, Pathfinder, Moon – hound within my soul.
Wolves teach us many things including howling, singing and how to know and understand ourselves and others.
What is the wolf spirit?
It is believed that our brother, the wolf, is a path finder, a bringer of new ideas returning to the people to deliver teachings and to allow us to learn and participate in knowing our heritage and spiritual path, sharing good medicine. The wolf teaches us how to live with one mate throughout life. This is an important lesson as humans are herd animals with an alpha leader and a harem mentality. If we follow brother wolf we can learn loyalty. The wolf pack provides an enormous sense of belonging and family, even within the pack, while retaining its individuality.
If you feel that you have an affinity for the wolf spirit, then you may be a person with a gift to teach. You may pass on your own spirit medicine with those willing to hear your message and learn. When you tune in to your intuitive nature on the wolf path you will divine a number of things, including an answer you may be seeking or a lesson you must learn at this time. When you discover your inner wolf spirit your drive to impart knowledge will increase and you may find yourself writing or lecturing about topics and providing information that will help others understand their own unique life path. In your spiritual development you must look for teachings from your wolf spirit guide. He is your brother and would not come to you without you making a request to the path-finder for his appearance in your life.
Who is the wolf spirit?
The wolf in nature has very keen senses and has a very powerful ally in the moon. The moon itself is a symbol for the psychic ability latent in all people. It has been used by secret societies for untold years to convey a message of secret knowledge and wisdom, the wolf spirit is partnered by this power when he comes to you. By howling at the Moon the wolf spirit asks you to seek that connection with new ideas which lie just below the surface of your waking mind, to look into your unconscious mind to release powerful energies. By doing this and by discovering your own wolf spirit within, you are encouraged to become a teacher, a tutor of all people to aid them in understanding the mysteries that life brings us.
Another link to the heavens and life mysteries comes from the Dogon tribe in Africa who link great powers and secrets to the Dog Star, Sirius. The ancient Egyptians also made this connection and believed Sirius to be the home of the gods. Star lore connects the wolf with the Dog Star and it is believed by some that mankind’s teachers were from this star. Other indigenous people, including Native Americans, later adopted this motif and identified the wolf as the teacher of the clans.
What can the wolf spirit provide?
The wolf spirit comes to teach and to endow the gift of wisdom on those who will take the time to listen to his teachings. It is said that when you have travelled every path and located those that lead nowhere, you will truly know your territory. In discovering this, a simple truth is revealed, that nothing stays the same, all things change as nature intended.
The spirit wolf may tell you to seek places to be alone. In these places, in the absence of other people, brother wolf may reveal himself and allow you to see your inner spirit guide and teacher. This in turn delivers a vision of the true being you are and will become.
If wolf spirit is not facing you when he approaches, you are being asked to look beyond your the confines of your present situation to see the wider world beyond. This may take courage, as new ideas could be foreign to you and you may need to divest yourself of older, confining viewpoints. Once the wolf spirit has imparted his teachings, then it is up to you to share these with the rest of humanity and seek to raise human consciousness to new heights. Do not let wolf spirit’s teaching stagnate and do not fear passing on your changed vision to others as this will result in you becoming bogged down and will stifle the changes he has brought to your life.
Your wolf spirit will always urge you to seek teachers or path finders that will show provide you with ways to achieve new life experiences. Always remember, the teachers and way-finders could be the tiny voice which comes to you from within or you could find a lesson in the form of a stone, a book, a cloud, a tree, another person or the Great Spirit that binds us all as one.
A final thought
Growth comes through acceptance of all forms of life and the acknowledgement of the lessons they can teach. Become the wolf spirit and follow the sense of discovery you feel. You may find that you stop crying at the moon in despair and become the embodiment of psychic energies symbolised by the moon. When you do…remember to pass this teaching on by becoming someone else’s wolf spirit guide.

Hi Timberwolf,
From what I have just read, I understand that a reader prepared and provided you with some insights regarding Brother Wolf as a Spirit Guide and the attributes the wolf brings to us through his teachings, and then you were guided (by Spirit) to write the current content of the “WOLF SPIRIT” article. So, I just wanted to take the time to say how impressed I am with your obvious writing talents in creating the article you wrote. You, indeed have taken the information you received, and have also breathed new life into it and captured in amazing detail the Spirit driven wisdom and teachings Brother Wolf has to offer.
I personally, am blessed to have a Cherokee heritage and continue to follow many of the sacred Cherokee traditions. I also have Brother Wolf as my main Animal Spirit Guide, and am very dedicated to acknowledging and abiding by his teachings within my life.
I am honored to call you a “friend” and to be a part of your website, as it truly is an inspirational and spiritual place to be.
And, I would like to leave you with a special blessing:
My Friend,
May the teachings of the wolf spirit bless and keep your path forever.
With love,
Pamela Nine (Little Wolf)

MY GREAT GRANDMOTHER WAS FULL BLOODED CHEROKEE , HER FAMILY NEVER REGISTERED AND RAN TO TEXAS…
I AM WONDERING HOW CAN I FIND MY INNER SPIRIT AND MY INNER ANIMAL SPIRIT…
THIS IS SO IMPORTANT TO , I AM SOUL SEARCHING.. I DON’T KNOW WHO TO ASK AND YOUR PAGE OF THE INNER WOLF IS GREAT…
IS IT POSSIBLE TO KNOW , I FEEL KNOW….BUT I WOULD LIKE TO GUIDED THE RIGHT DIRECTION..
REBECCA
Rebecca
We all search in our own way for the inner spirit which guides us. There are many different paths down which we can travel to find this spirit. I will endeavour to put you in touch with a path to help you in your seeking.
Timberwolf
Mrs.Timberwolf.My name is Trey Painter.But my friends and family call me black panther.And I was wondering if you could help me.Is it alright for an 11 year old boy like me have a spirirt animal.Because I have a deer antler,wolf skin,a Native american dream catcher,all types of bird feathers like turkey and hawk,turkey bones,and some drawing of Black Panthers drinking water or caching thier prey.but I really want to now how spirit animals can help you.because I always have dreams of a Black Panther talking to me.but just wondering.
Thank you, i only hope i can fully harness my latent psychic ability….
Timberwolf, how is it that a wolf, which is pretty native to North America, became my totem (even though I’m Polynesian and live in Australia). I’m still a bit fuzzy on that because, before I dreamed about my two white wolves, I had never had any interest in, or fascination with, it.
Hi George
My story is quite similar, I am of mixed British and Scottish heritage with my ancestors coming from somewhere near Hadrian’s wall in the UK. I’m probably a bitsa (bits of this and bits of that) genetically. As far as I know, I have no native american heritage.
My article on Wolf Origins – Part 1 will give you a little more background on the territory originally covered by Cannis Lupus. This may show you that back in the recesses of history, even the Polynesian people had some contact with wolves.
Why you have a wolf spirit guide is another matter and one I have had some cause to reflect on. I reached a point in my life where it became important to me to become a Seeker of the Way. I had, for a long time, given up on current dogmatic religions as they did not have the answers I sought. I decided to follow my heart as a Spiritual Warrior. At this time, wolves started appearing in my life in photos, on Stumble Upon, in dreams (and I don’t dream often). Then I came across an article by Pamela Nine, now a good friend of mine.
With her permission, I reproduced the article, Animals: Spirit, Power & Totem, with some editorial comment, here on Timberwolf HQ. After reading it, and doing some soul searching, I understood that Wolf Spirit (who is teacher, brother and pathfinder) had come to me at just the right time to help me find my divine inner light. Wolf Spirit will do the same for you if you are Seeking the Way and become a fellow Spiritual Warrior.
George, I hope this helps.
Timberwolf
This all really great information. Yes, like George and like Timberwolf I am a mix myself. I do know though that I have a 16th native american in me but I am unable to locate the tribe on my grandfather (on my mother’s side)side. Her and I have been seeking our Spirit guides and I have seen the white wolf, a snow owl, and a large deer of some sort. My mother said they all are my spirit guides but the wolf seems to be the one that shows up more often where as the other two showed up to my mom when I am in danger. Is this common for some people? Thank you for the help also.
i am confused timberwolf…i have messed up major in life with lies and unloyalty due to fear of others. i am not sure if i can find my spirit guide now. i want to do the right things and not fall into peer pressure. i am afraid now that i wil travel the path of wrong. what can i do to make this right. will my guide forgive me? can i find her ask ask forgiveness? or will i have to walk this fate forever?
Tiffany…thanks for your comment. It sounds to me that you have already started to turn things around because you have made the realisation that things need to change. I believe that making that first step is essential and you have done it…now keep going.
As to your spirit guides, they are with you through thick and thin to ‘guide’ you not choose your path for you. Only you have the power of choice, they can provide information on which you can base ‘your’ choices. If you make an effort to contact your guides, they will be there for you. What you have to do is listen and learn.
This text is just amazing, different than any other I have read
I always wondered why I liked wolves and their howling. When I was a child I enjoyed walking on “four legs” and even howling…I know it sounds realy weird but well that is who I am and I’m not afraid to say it.
The Moon on the other hand has always been atractive to me. I would just sit and stare at it…for hours…I was feeling something inside me but I never knew what it was. It was like a voice speaking but I couldn’t understand a word at first, then I read this text and I really think the voice was speaking louder and more clear than before. It was like its telling me tails about something so long forgoten…
Well anyway I have an animal spirit guide too,you know its timberwolf
My sis has got an otter animal spirit
Just wanted to ask can our animal spirit appear in our dreams too? I had a dream about wolf, through the dream I heard the name Kajak. Now.. I dont know if that is her name I can only guess?
Hi Nicole. Yes, our spirit guides can speak to us in our dreams. It is not the only time though. During quiet meditation and other times when you quiet the monkey mind, you should be able to ask a question of your guides and receive an answer. Finally, it would appear as though Kajak is your wolf spirit guides name.
Well I had a dream were this native woman came to me with a white wolf. She was a distance away from me. She smiled at me and dissaperared. Somehow in bad times I feel like that wolf is protecting me. I can still imagine that girls smile and feel knowledge in me and I’m going to pass it on.
Hello, Timberwolf. You know..that post was simply amazing. Most websites will copy and paste from each other and essentially remain all the same..no diversity when it comes to the Wolf. This was a welcome change. A couple months ago I actually discovered my animal spirit. A Wolf named Alexdraeus. In that time I have had several dreams and encounters through meditation. I have also partially taken on the role of teacher for one other person so far and have helped him discover his animal spirit.. a Lynx. This just seems incredible to me sometimes because I, like you and many others I’m sure, am not of native american origin nor do I have any native american heritage. Yet I have been able to connect with my animal spirit and help another person with theirs. It has given me a wonderful feeling of accomplishment.. do you get the same feeling from time to time?
Hello Zume. Thank you for the wonderful comment. It is always valuable to hear of others following the path of light. Congratulations on taking on the role of ‘teacher’ as well. It is very fulfilling to be able to provide information that helps people discover who they truly are and what they are capable of. Yes I do get a sense of satisfaction from writing about my discoveries and hearing how they have been of use to others. It is what keeps me writing. Thank you again for stopping by. I hope to see comments from you again and to also hear about your progress and that of your student.
TimberWolf, i asked you for advise a few months ago. I was petrified I would not be able to find my Spirit Wolf and that the Spirit would not accept me. I found peace at home yesterday after my 18th birthday on Saturday and decided to try and talk to the Spirits. i found my Wolf. Her name is Aniu. She has been by my side the entire time I was afraid and happy and scared and in doubt and confident. She walks by my side everyday. Thank You so much TimberWolf! If it was not for you, I would not have had the faith I have now.
Tiffany, this is most wonderful news. I’m so glad you decided to take some time to quiet your mind and seek the assistance of your ‘guides’. Remember that they are there to provide you with information on which you make ‘your’ choices and not make those decisions for you.
Thank you for returning and letting me know how you are progressing. I look forward to hearing more about how you and Aniu are progressing so stop by again and let me know.
I try to contact my spirit guide today. I really want to meet Kajak.
Hi Nicole. I will be adding an article later this week that may help you contact your spirit guide Kajak if the article, “Discovering Your Animal Totem” has not been helpful to you. The article will have a meditation technique I use in it that has been successful for me.
Let me know if you have success in meeting Kajak.
Dear ‘wolf brother and sisters”…..last weekend, during a shamanic journeying by an exquisite shaman (Armand DeGrenier), i heard a piercing growling of a wolf right next to my ear. it was as though a wolf was sitting next to my ear. i was startled, my body shook like crazy, yet i had no fear…furthermore, i did not want the growling sound to stop even! there was a sense of comfort in that sound of growling…well…when it came to share our experiences in that circle, i became aware that this wolf has facilitated awareness that confidence is my medicine!. i tell myself everyday, like some kind of a mantra: ‘confidence is my medicine.
i do not know her name yet….i am looking forward to another shamanic journey to hopefully receive her name and a message for me.
greetings,
Billur
I was wondering if wolf spirits come to you in human forms? I know a man that is a Lone Wolf Spirit and came to me for a brief time, and although I am learning the lessons he brought to me, I am now inspired to get into journalism, documentary film making and public speaking…..I am already on this educational journey.
Ileana-Susan. Thanks for the comment. I am certain that Wolf Spirit can appear to us in many different forms. Appearing in the form of a person, male or female, is only a matter of lycanthropy and this can be achieved by many of our guides as well as talented individuals. I received a message from my wolf spirit only recently in a very unique manner. It would seem, however that the lessons your Wolf Spirit intended for you to learn have been absorbed as you indicate that you have already embarked on a learning journey. Keep up with the learning and Wolf Spirit will be happy with your decisions.
Please come back and let me know how things are going.
As a person of the Jewish faith and race I must admit I sometimes find the concepts discussed in the polytheistic faiths to be confusing at the very least. Never the less, despite certain misunderstandings held by the- How do you refer to yourself? The pagan community?-, the nature of our mysticism creates parralels between our beliefs and yours, enough so that sometimes there can be understanding. For instance, we believe in the reincarnation of souls between various states, human, animal, angelic, daemonic (it is important to point out that Jews believe in Daemons, not Demons as Christians do. Daemons are moraly nuetral disembodied spirits who can act towards or against the interests of mankind), and other less clear states as well.
Which is not to say I have ever had any kind of raport which wolves. No indeed. Wolves and I do not get along well, in nature, captivity, or dream state, and in all cases their reaction to me tends to be… Agressive, at the least. In dreams often murderous. But I do not fear them, but feel a subdued antipathy in return.
Perhaps in lives long past I was a disciple of Azazel, the dark angel who taught mankind the secrets of magic, technology and the art of building cities. Or perhaps I embody, somehow, some fundemental element of industrial civilization on a mystical level that jars badly with the naturalistic nature of the wolf, which rails against the effects of the ever-growing metropoli? Your input would be welcome.
When I dream, the things which come to me and whisper secrets to me are things that linger at the edge of perception, shapeless, nameless but Lovecraftian in nature. They assist, aid, advise, but the effects on my ‘dream self’ are interesting- where ordinarily I consider myself a friendly and ordinarily empathetic person, in dream I tend to act coldly, dispassionatly, even perhaps ruthlessly. Is this the influence of these ‘outsiders’, am I being used like a vessel, a means for entities that exist outside even the planescape of the dream-world to interact with it? Your opinion would be valued.
Hi Lynch. Dreams can be interpreted in a number of ways. One might be tempted to say that in your dream state your subconscious mind is living out those tendencies that you have under tight control during your waking hours. Others might say that it means nothing at all. From my perspective I feel that you may be a little too easy going and as such people may take advantage of your good nature. Your spirit guides are coming to you in dreams and showing you an alternative to your current nature. One which is too far in the opposite direction to your current waking self. The message seems to be that you need to find a better balance between self-effacing good natured acceptance and a tougher stance against being continually used through your good nature. Balance is the key to tranquility. Find that balance and your dreams may alter to provide other messages.
Please let me know how things are going.
I managed to contact my wolf spirit guide and yes she confirmed that her name is Kajak it happened when I was at the village and I was kinda in faze of monkey mind she just appeared after my third try to contact her, I feel a lot better now knowing that she is always by my side.
Hi Nicole. I’m very pleased that you have managed to contact Kajak and that you are comfortable with her presence. Please stay in touch and let me know how things progress as you start on your path as a Spiritual Warrior and Seeker of the Way.
recently I contacted Kajak (read Kayak)
I was meditating after my practising for tomorrow’s test…I channeled her and after a little talk I felt much better even trough I was exosted It helped me relax
That much from me for now
I will let you know what happeneds every time I contact her
Nicole
Nicole, when you speak with your animal spirit guide, most of what is talked about is for only yourself. You do not need to be sharing every single experience. I don’t and it should not be expected of anyone.
Sorry, Timberwolf, but I had to share my thoughts.
I am not going to tell everything,some things stay just for me
I just want to tell how it went,not everything we talked about!
So next time keep your troughs for yourself
Anyway,I contacted her again,it went well and she helped me to relax.
That’s all.
Nicole
Hi Timberwolf.
My best friend can see spirits. She told me that I have a wolf as a spirit guide. I looked it up, and my personality perfectly matches with the wolf, and I’ve always loved them. Even the other things I love are linked to wolves (which I only find out afterwards). I wanted to check this for sure, and I tried the meditation. But I can’t do it. I don’t know if I’m unable to focus, or if it’s because I already think that my guide is a wolf. All I see is darkness, and I daydream a lot, so I think that what I do try to see is my own mind showing it to me, because I want to see it, like a daydream. And sometimes I see flashes of a wolf, but I’m not sure if it’s my imagination. And it’s like a silhouette, and I can’t talk to him. Can you please help me with this? It seems impossible, and I’m so confused how others can do it so easily.
Nikita. I would tend to agree with Zume on the use of imagination as a tool to assist with meditation, however I caution on its over use. In the artilce Discovering Your Animal Totem, I have covered a method that can be used to seek your spirit guide. Perhaps it may be of some use to you. In addition, I am compiling a free eBook on Guided Meditations which I will be publishing soon.
Please let me know how your seeking and meditations unfold.
Timberwolf
Nikita, when you go into a meditation..try and tune out all worldy distractions.. no sounds like TV unless you have some light music..that sometimes will help. Go into a meditative state with absolutely no expectations.. turn off your mind..clear it. Whenever you think of something in the physical world, turn away from it. Focus your energy on keeping a clear mind. Your animal will come to you.
Also imagination is a very important part of this..do not turn that off. There is a very fine line between imagination and the spirit world. This is your place. Whatever you can imagine will come real. Imagine some place that makes you happy.. preferably somewhere you have been before. Accomodate yourself..make sure you are completely relaxed and your animal will decide when the time is right. Mine did not appear right off the bat..it took time.
Nicole, I meant no disrespect to either yourself or Kajak. I appologise if I stepped over that line, I was only responding in order to help. Take my comments in no other manner if you would please other than a friendly gesture and comment/suggestion. I have been helping one person lately with whom I’ve taken on the mantle of the teacher.. and I feel obligated at times to offer my assistance. I am not an enemy but a friend to whomever welcomes my help or is confronted by my comments, blunt at times though they may seem.
Best wishes to you and your guide,
Zume
Thank you Zume
But as you can see I putted a ” 
” There so you knows I am not yelling for real. I am sorry I am just used to putting that sign beacuse of my buttons that are broken and I can’t really but the signs I want so I just had to go with “!”. Once again I am very sorry if I offended you.
Best wishes for you and your wolf guide,
Nicole
Nicole and Zume – I am pleased to see that you have resolved the apparent conflict between you. Once again, Wolf Spirit has guided you both to become better people just as a teacher/guide would do.
Nicole, please feel free to continue to post information on your contact with Kajak. It is an inspiration to others that you have achieved so much so quickly. By posting your comments on this and other articles here at Timberwolf HQ you show many readers that it is possible to reach and and find your spirit guides.
Zume – I understand well the role of teacher and the urge to share and guide. This is fundamental to those of us with Wolf as a guide. I do understand that it can sometimes become distracting to read of the experiences of others, yet for the reasons I have outlined above to Nicole, I welcome those experiences here. Thank you both for your continued readership and comments.
I look forward to reading more from both of you.
Timberwolf
Timberwolf, I appreciate your posts as always.. but I would like to back up my suggestion of imagination as a tool through meditation. A book that was suggested to me that I would like to suggest here is Awakening Spirits by Tom Brown Jr. It is a fantastic book. The first two parts are basically a story but the third is a practical guide. I agree that Animal Speak is a wonderful book (I own that one as well) but one can not base all information through only one book.
The meditation exercises that you posted in that article are wrapped around one tool and that is imagination. It may also be called a guided vision but we use our imagination nonetheless. I too caution it’s use..you can think of an animal and claim it as your own..but you only need to imagine the scenery and allow the animal to appear of it’s own accord.
Even if you think about an animal that has interested you in the past it is not always your animal guide. You could be drawn to a bear..or have an unnatural reverence toward eagles..but wind up with a hawk, mouse, or a trout as a guide.
Zume – I understand your point and I thank you again for your input. It was not my intention to caution against using imagination in meditation only to suggest, as you have done that it can be taken too far and introduce an animal into your meditations that is not in fact your guide. If my meaning was unclear then I am sorry and I thank you for clarifying it.
By the way, have you read the challenge I have put forward to my readers? It is based around Wolf Spirit and how they appear to us in many ways. I’d be interested in your experiences.
Timberwolf
I read the article “the challenge” and I find the game pretty amazing. In my country stains that stay on the bottom of the cup always had shapes. As kids, me and my friends played with it and we didn’t take it to serious. Old ladies however believed that the shapes are symbols and that they can predict your destiny. That is an old believing which I forgot about ’till I read the article.
Thank you for the memories.
Love
Nicole
By the way I will post if I find something interesting in my cup
Nicole
Hello,
This is gonna be pretty hard for me to explain. I’ve loved wolves since I can remember; something about them was so magical… and thrilling. I’ve never ever seen one in real life… but I really, really want to. I feel connected to them (not joking here!). Seriously, connected; like when I see pictures of them, I feel like they’re talking to me. I know it sounds weird, but oh well. I’m glad I found somebody to talk to about this.
Wolves are everything to me. I’ve always thought of them as my spirit animal…. but, who is MINE? My special wolf? He/she doesn’t have a name. I’ve never dreamed about him/her… but I have seen my wolf in daydreams. I am pretty sure it’s a female; something about it is so pure, strong and protective like a woman. I don’t know her name, but I know that she is a black wolf. A pure black wolf with the most.. amazing and vibrant amber eyes that seem to burn into my soul.
I see her all the time.. when I’m bored, when I’m trying to sleep, or even when I’m swimming – but the most amazing time I see her is when I’m upset. If I’m crying or mad, I seem to feel her presence and see her watching me, then I feel calmer, like nothing in the world could ever bring me down again. I want to meet her. I want to know her name. How do I do it? Like Nikita, I’m confused – how do others do it so easily?!
Please help,
Ella
Hi Ella. Thanks for the comment and the question. It does seem to me that you have a strong connection to your spirit animal. One thing that I can tell you is that when you meditate it is the best time to ask your guide to identify herself. Yes, I get the feeling the it is a she-wolf too. In the artilce Discovering Your Animal Totem, I have covered a method that can be used to seek your spirit guide. I hope this helps you with your meditation.
Please come back and tell me how you went and how your journey is progressing.
Timberwolf
This was posted as a link from Facebook “Wolves” I have looked up quite a bit of things on wolves, spirit wolves, and spirit guides (and have a library of the subject) and I really enjoyed this article and look forward for more insight. I’m still a student looking for guidance.
I know my spirit guide is of wolf descent and have a strong pull towards wolves and dogs. I asked my sister to help describe my home because I couldn’t put it into words and she felt serenity, peace, and tranquility (I have pics. of wolves, native american pics., homemade Dreamcatchers, and its full of plants). She also said she loved the scents in my home very Angelic, calming and Spiritual.
I have 2 dogs one is part wolf and I Love them dearly and I really feel when I talk to them I understand what they’re thinking.
Where am I going with this you wonder… I have insights and they normally come through as “I just know”, when asked how do I know all I can say is I just know. Right now my life is in clutter because you can see it and in my home, I’m going to need guidence on how to unclutter my life, my home and I need to know how to connect with my spirit guides to help guide. So, Help! How do I begin, I don’t think I know how to meditate .
Thank you for your time..and I look forward to your help and welcome Zume’s assistance as well…..
Ps. Any chance you will join facebook??? It can work as a great teaching tool, hint hint
Thanks again,
Klygrl2
Hi Kellie. Wow! Thanks for the comment and the questions. I do feel that you have a problem with clutter. So, how does one find peacy and tranquility in a setting that seems to convey peace and tranquility. I will defer to another site, one which has a great article on decluttering. Check out “Declutter Your Life and Living Areas and Find Tranquility” on Tranquility HQ.
With regard to your efforts at meditating, I wrote an artilce “Discovering Your Animal Totem“. This may help you as it covers a method that can be used to seek your spirit guide. In addition, I am preparing a free eBook on meditation techniques which I will publish here soon.
As for your facebook question, yes I am already on facebook, that is probably how you found the link to my site.
Please come back and tell me how you went and how your journey is progressing.
Timberwolf
Hello,
I’m sorry my manners… I got to involved in the subject, my name is Kellie by I go by Klygrl2…this shoud have been on the previous text…oops!!!
The thing that struck me first reading this article is, what kind of bad sources is this person pulling from
#1. Wolves don’t howl at the moon, it’s statically shown that frequency of howling and moon phase do not have any correlation. What the howl really seems to be is a sort of long distance communication, like say a telephone call, that is broadcast to everyone in the area.
#2. Psychic Abilities? What the heck? Wolves may appear to be psychic in their planning but they actually communicate by high pitched almost whines, and It’s a language I hope to be able to crack.
Now that I’m done with the factual issues of the matter, I’m going to get down to the other core of the issue. As a wolf therianthrope who has had his moment of revelation, the semi-conscious recognition of fur pattern, etc.. this whole thing is patently wrong. Either you are or you aren’t one who has kinship, no one can become one, because if they didn’t start out as one how can you transform, perhaps better phrased: “What Can Change the Nature of A Man?” (of course few will catch the reference to Planescape: Torment, but whatever). In fact my entire big picture view of what’s going on here is that to me this looks like a power-cult, yeah flame away whatever, but what I’m seeing here is a whole bunch of people who go “Oh POWER!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHA, with this cult I can gain whole new levels of untold POWER!!!” ..ehem, obviously they aren’t thinking that consciously, but seriously

“Perhaps in lives long past I was a disciple of Azazel, the dark angel who taught mankind the secrets of magic, technology and the art of building cities. Or perhaps I embody, somehow, some fundemental element of industrial civilization on a mystical level that jars badly with the naturalistic nature of the wolf, which rails against the effects of the ever-growing metropoli? Your input would be welcome.”
etc..
The other thing is you’re trying to get people actively involved in the spirit realm, invocations, summoning, etc.. Magic is why we need exorcists, because people open doors and have not the slightest how to shut them. Besides again the whole power mentality issue involved with magic, and all the nastiness implied there.. This isn’t to say there aren’t angels who follow either the angelic or demonic paths that may be chosen to guard or harm you, but that if you have an angelic he/she has probably actually been with you all your life, I know mine has, it was just the revelation point required to realize her presence, and so thusly you don’t need to invoke or summon or otherwise play with such paths of self-destruction.
I realize I’m being (Intentionally) offensive, but if the admin does decide to keep my comment here, I’m not going to respond to attempts at flaming, but I will debate with those who would chose to do so.
– The Analytical Searcher
First and foremost Analytical Searcher, thank you for your comment as all views are welcome here. There will be no flaming from this site.
Secondly, this is not a mad power cult and is not intended to be. It is an informational source for any who seek enlightenment not magic.
Third, I too am fully aware that wolves do not howl at the moon, for more scientific information on wolves you can check the other posts here on Timberwolf HQ. They are:
Wolf Origins – Part 1
Wolf Origins – Part 2
Origins of the Modern Dog
Canine Language
I hope you find this information more to your liking.
Fourth, you obviously have a spiritual side to you as you have an angelic guide. Congratulations. Perhaps one day your guide will teach you the meaning of humility.
Timberwolf
Humility..from the Urban dictionary…Remaining teachable, knowing that you do not have all the answers.
Hmm. Fair cop Gov’.

Wow, Ella, you’ve said it all. Ditto. And it’s not weird, though people may think it is. Wolves are a special part of me too- I have a desktop wallpaper of a wolf howling in a forest, and every time I minimize anything, I can’t help but sigh. They’re so beautiful. Timberwolf and Zume, thanks a lot for your help. I continue to try and do the meditation… nothing yet, but I’m sure I’ll get something soon.
I just red The Analytical Searcher’s comment and I was like wow,it sure gives a lot of negative energy…I didn’t quite understand the power part (partly because I don’t speak English well and partly because it didn’t sound quite “normal” (especaily with that “MWHAHAHAH” laugh),no offence).
Anway like Mrs. Timberwolf said this is not a cult or a clan this is just the website that provides the informations for people who actually believe in this (including me of course).
Now I don’t wanna be offensive but If you don’t like it perhaps you should not spend/waste your time reading it.
Greetings
Nicole
Humility? or subservience? I do recognize that everyone operates in biases based off of incomplete data including myself, however that is not the issue you’re getting at. And perhaps I need to make the reason for my distaste clear.. It’s not so much the magic in the realm of the psychic ability nonsense, it’s not even the whole moon thing.. What really gets me is two aspects
#1. False Therianthropy: Let me first start off by defining this term for those who haven’t heard it before, A Therianthrope is someone who feels kinship to an animal, generally in exclusion of kinship for mankind, the thing is though you can’t seek to become a therian, either you are already or you are not, if you’re seeking to become on that puts you in the latter category. And just so you know, before I hit revelation I didn’t even particularly care one way or the other about wolves. Essentially you are taking a bunch of fanboys (and fangirls) and telling them “Get your free spirit guide, Get ‘em here and be closer to wolves than ever before.” essentially this furthers attempts at becoming therianthropic, Now as a Scientist and a Statistician (they are the same thing) this corrupts my datasets, when I’m trying to look for trends.
#2. Magic, Before we go any further lets define just what magic is for the purposes of this debate, Magic is the attempt to invoke or summon angels to use their powers. The nature of such attempts opens doors, doors people are most of the time incapable of closing, and as such let fallen in. In this particular case we are talking about invoking a spirit which may or may not be a wolf, to give advice, etc.. the problem of course being unless you actually end up setting up mental programs without knowing it that create a wolf as it were in your mind, or you had one all your life but were unaware… you tread into very dangerous territory. for me again her presence was part of the revelation.. but on reflection I realized she had always been with me, as well as recognition of signs leading up to my revelation.
And just one moment back to the humility thing though I don’t care to actually debate about the matter, since It’s not the matter at hand which I seek to debate over, but politeness, deference, etc behaviors I view as not only lies and wrong but they are bad. If one doesn’t care to speak what they believe what point is in them speaking at all? After all no information gets conveyed.. which is exactly why debate is the purest form of communication, because information gets conveyed and received by both sides.
And Nicole, yes the tone of my writing was quite negative, that was intentional. My entire point about power summed up quite nicely is this: Humans always tend to be after power, essentially this acts as bait for those in the right mindset. Thinking they can become psychic or a werewolf or some other such otherwise to make them think they have more power than they actually do. The reason I ended up even reading this article is because I saw a reference to it, well a quoting of a single paragraph to which I said, oh that’s not too bad, and then seeing the surrounding paragraphs, I retracted that assessment very quickly…However once having read it over, I felt very much inclined to state my thoughts on it.. which is why I’m still here, and besides… I’m an Objectivist (not an Ayn Rand follower, her conclusion had nothing to do with the philosophy) and as such the search for the truth involves gathering data points, and trying to become objective.. and Pope John Paul said “There’s a little bit of truth in everything” the trick is weeding it out..
Analytical Searcher, thank you again for your comment. I agree that debate is a form of communication, however I would not call it “pure”. You have a positive and a negative side to debate, each attempting to sway the other or the audience in their favour. This means obviously that each side will convey “their version of the truth” just as you have done. If you were indeed an Objectivist, then your comments would be clinical and yes, neutral. It would be the sheer power of the statement, however neutral, that would sway the audience without the need to shade it one way or the other.
As you say, the trick is weeding out the truth and I must say that, while comments from all faiths and belief systems are welcome, negativity is not. If your purpose is to disuade a person from a particular belief or feeling, then being negative is only providing positive reinformcement. Again, the most powerful argument is delivering a neutral statement that through its very wording and nature, brings forth belief in another.
‘Magic’ comes in many forms, not all of it ‘evil’. In its purest form, ‘magic’ is a belief in something greater than ourselves delivering to us those things we wish for. Napoleon Hill said there were 13 steps to riches (I take riches to be spiritual as well material). These are:
The ability to create our own reality is inherent in everyone, this is not magic, merely faith in ourselves. Dogma and doctrine are tools that bind the mind of the follower to those who seek to gain ‘power’ over others. This site is not attempting to turn people into ‘therianthropes’. It is merely presenting information. How people react to that information is their own business.
Timberwolf
Do you want me to be in the wolf pack spirit wolf?
Timberwolf,
I tried to get her to communicate with me a few hours after I read your comment. I finally have her name – though it’s a strange one and more than one word like the others, I’m pretty sure it’s the one. She seems to talk to me in riddles mostly, and I can feel them enter my head, even though she’s not speaking.
Her name is Fyan Xia, but she wants me to call her Xia. She is a black wolf, (and of course a female). The funny thing is that sometimes she gets mad when I ask her questions, and it scares me. It’s like she’s another…me. She’s told me stories about her past, but they’re all in riddles and I can’t really understand them that well…but I get the feeling that she didn’t have a very happy one. She might seem evil and strange to you, but I love her. I love her for who she is – strong and defensive and rebellious and…amazing.
I’m going to try and remember some so I can post them here, but it’s hard when the words enter your head instead of you hearing them!
I forgot to mention…I tried that ‘finding your totem’ thing as well. That’s how I met her. Funny, she seemed to like me right away! I guess she’d been watching me a long time and figured she already knew me. But that’s besides what I’m trying to get to…
That part where you image the cave and the tunnel…the tunnel caved in on me. I must have been sad or angry at the time I started meditating, but however hard I tried, I couldn’t get the tunnel to stop, and I couldn’t imagine anything else. Finally I was too tired and I opened my eyes…hearing a growling in my head. Xia was angry that I’d blocked off our communication.
Please explain,
Ella (and Xia)
Welcome back Ella. Thank you for giving me an update. Wow, your wolf guide’s name is ‘Fyan Xia’. Do you know what it means? I don’t, however it sounds chinese. I wonder if there are any readers who may be able to assist with a translation?
Well, to your experience and question. It sounds to me as if you tried too hard to force a connection between you and Xia. This is indicated by the collapsing tunnel. A forced meditation can lead to unusual results. It is best to try first thing in the morning or when you are rested and at peace during the day. Pushing too hard to get through the tunnel from the cave to the outside appears to have caused an instability in the tunnel walls. Your further attempts to dig through it only made the issue worse. Xia was most likely not angry but anxious, sometimes appear to be the same thing (remember that mothers and fathers can appear angry with their children when it is anxiety and concern that is actually present).
Xia may not have had a happy past and this may be the reason she has chosen to be your guide. To show you that it doesn’t matter where one comes from in life (metaphorically the right or wrong side of the tracks) or what you have experienced in the past, enlightenment is open to all who seek it.
Please continue to keep me updated on your progress in getting to know Xia.
Timberwolf
Hehe, I probably have, Nikita. I’m totally and utterly obsessed with them. Even possessive, lol! My friends tell me I’m obsessing too much, but who cares? I love them. <3
Ella, wow, does this happen to everyone? It’s always, always wolves for me. I even hate stories like Little Red Riding Hood and The Three Little Pigs just because they make wolves look bad…My friends say they’ve never liked any animal as much as I love wolves, though one of them understands- the one who can see him.
You did it? I try everyday. Nothing yet. Congratulations! But how did you do it without getting past the tunnel? Because that’s what I can’t do either…
I don’t think I’ve seen your ‘Finding Your Animal Totem’ page yet, Timberwolf. Maybe I’ll do that now.
Hi Nikita – the article your looking for is “Discovering Your Animal Totem“. In addition, I am preparing a free eBook on meditation techniques which I will publish here soon.
Remember, do not try to force the meditation, let it occur naturally.
Timberwolf
Timberwolf, I also forgot to say. I saw my wolf from the corner of my eye yesterday when I was trying to go to sleep (but not succeeding) He stayed there. I just continued to stay straight ahead, and he was there. It was amazing…
I just read your article. I’ll try it sometime. The picture of the eagle reminded me, I’m terrified of birds. Especially crows and black birds. Terrified. I’m not exaggerating. Does this have anything to do with my spirit?
Nikita – this is a good start. He is making himself known. I’m sure that if you allow the meditation to unfold naturally, you will meet him soon. At that time, ask politely if he will share his name with you.
As to your fear of birds, I am sorry if the image caused you dis-harmony. It is unlikely to have any relation to your spirit guides though. Blackbirds and ravens (crows) are messengers. They bring information about new things and divine law. There is nothing to fear in the animal or guide in and of itself. People do tend to fear that the message or information is bad because the bird is black and this is associated with bad luck/news. Eagles portray strength and spiritual connection. (see Animals: Spirit, Power & Totem).
Please keep trying your meditations. I look forward to hearing from you, so keep me posted on your progress.

Ethnocentrism (from Urban Dictionary)…
…the attitude and/or ideology concerning the relationship between an individual’s own group and other groups. Ethnocentrism occurs when negative value judgments are made about others based on the differences between one’s own
culturebeliefs and a foreignculture.belief. Ethnocentrism occurs when an individual considers hisculture/nationbelief to be absolutely superior to othernations or culturesbeliefs.“you and your ideas are bad and mine are better!”

Hi, Timberwolf. I’ll keep an eye out for your e-book. It sounds like it will be helpful. Don’t worry at all about the eagle picture. I actually did find that eagles don’t scare me, I thought maybe because I’ve never seen one. Crows, or ravens, do scare me to death. Thank you so much for your help. I’ll keep trying, and post something if I’m successful.
Ella, I searched “Fyan Xia” on Google, and didn’t get much. Separately, Xia is Chinese for “Glow of the Sunrise.” It’s also a variation of “Xenia” which is Greek for “Quest” or “Stranger.” I think that maybe Fyan could actually be spelt Phyan, which is Burmese for “A Cherry Fallen off a Tree” or “A Vicious Fruit of the Weather Gods.” Maybe there’s something in here?
Hey Nikita,
It might possibly be Chinese… I honestly don’t know. However, I remember one of the riddles saying something about a dragon. Isn’t that a sign of Chinese folklore? Anyway, the spelling might be either way… like I said, she doesn’t spell it for me.
“Glow of the Sunrise” is a little too girly for her, however her eyes seem to glow golden! That might be it.
“Vicious Fruit of the Weather Gods” is more like it! She’s tough and concerned, but I feel that there’s a soft side of her. I just need to find it.
“Quest” is right, as well. She always seems like she’s on a quest to help me, and find out about me. She always seems curious.
“Cherry Fallen Off A Tree”… maybe this explains her past? Perhaps she was an outcast? I don’t know. I’ll be looking up her name too!
As for the tunnel and stuff… I didn’t ever get out of there. Something dragged me out. It could have been Xia.. but how could she have gotten through? You’re right – I was supposed to reach the end of the tunnel in order to meet her. She doesn’t seem like the kind of character who would follow any rules or regulations though. Maybe she was waiting for me at the front?
Timberwolf,
I understand how I could be pushing it. I always wanted to meet a wolf, so I guess I’ve been a little excited. I also tend to be dissapointed by my imaginations – I want things to be real.
Something amazing happened today, though! Almost everywhere I looked I could see her eyes… they’re golden and amazing, furious and seem to blaze a hole in my eyes. Like I said to Nikita… her eyes ARE like the glow of the sunrise!
Anyway, I went for a bike ride down the street and into the little forest pathway that’s near my house. I wasn’t thinking about her, but my mind jolted into action when I heard a growl. My neighbour has a pit bull, so I figured they’d be going for a walk, but it wasn’t that. There was something… different about this growl – it was far away, but loud at the same time. It’s so hard to explain…
I was a little scared, so I started pedalling faster. Suddenly I felt and heard a panting beside me, and although I looked down and around me I couldn’t see anything. I know Xia was with me, and ready to protect me from whatever was there. The panting stopped after I returned home, and I had a nap to calm down before I started meditating.
I wanted to make sure I could apologize to Xia for the unnerving and unplanned departure on my last meditation. I find that being outside is the most calm place to meditate, so I lay down on a picnic blanket in the middle of my lawn. It was a warm day, and after schooltime, so I was surprised that none of the neighbourhood children were out playing.
My meditation, unfortunately, was unsucsessful. Xia was probably tired and wanting rest – just like me. Sometimes meditating too much in one day can make me exhausted.
Ella + Xia
Ella & Xia
Welcome back. What a wonderful experience you have had. To acknowledge Xia’s presence alongside you is wonderful. Sounds like you have an ideal place for meditation as well. As to meditating too much during the day, for those of us who do not make a lifetime habit of meditation, then yes, it can be very exhausting. Don’t push yourself. Give yourself a few days off and enjoy the knowledge that you have met your guide. She will wait for you to reach out again. When your mind and body are fully rested, try again. This time do not try to force the contact, let it occur naturally.
Come back and let me know how things go.
Timberwolf.
Timberwolf & Sheba (just found out who your wolf was, hehe!)
I’ve decided to carve a stick into Xia’s shape. It will be like a real totem. I’ve never carved before, so it will be a challenge, but I think I can do this. Having Xia with me has created a new, amazing and confident attitude in me.
Xia has a very distinct shape and build. When I saw her the first time she was but a shadow; I could only see her shape. She is very stocky and strong, with muscles clearly visible on her legs and back. When I finish the totem (it might not be the perfect shape of a wolf, but it will represent her) I will post it on here and show you all.
Ella + Xia
Hey Ella.
Awesome. Maybe she does have two names because one represents her eyes. Maybe she asks you to call her Xia because she doesn’t like the name Fyan (or Phyan) because it reminds her of her past? Sorry, Xia, if I’m insulting you somehow. Wow. Hearing her must have been amazing. I sometimes find that if I can sense where my wolf is- beside me, to my left, to my right, behind me. When he barks at passing dogs, and they turn to stare at me strangely. I just feel it. You’re lucky to have heard something!
Timberwolf, he appeared again, in the same place, at the same time. I only see his black silhouette from the corner of my eye, but in my mind, I can see him standing there in bright daylight. Flashes come to me. He has grey fur, which is almost black on his back, and gets lighter as it gets to his stomach. His eyes are as blue as the sky, with dark pupils. The flashes are almost like… memories. Though he looks calm and collected from the corner of my eye, no movement except for a little tail movements, in the flashes he seems to be grinning widely, and his tongue is sticking out happily.
I’m going to see if I can find out what his name is soon.
Hi All,
Thought I’d update you on Xia and me!
I’ve started Xia’s carving. At first I was determined, but my happy and optimistic energy soon deflated.. I was sooo ready to give up. Then I felt like Xia was beside me, urging me on, and I could do it again.
Not much else to say. Xia doesn’t seem to like dogs… I was meditating when my dog Oliver nosed his way into my room and came to say hi to me. I greeted him with outstretched arms, but he suddenly took his tail between his legs and raced off, looking fearfully behind me. I looked around but couldn’t see anything; however, I could hear a faint growling, like I was the one growling. Poor Oliver… I confused the heck out of him.
Do you think she dislikes dogs for their ‘tamed’ nature? Is she angry that they came from such regal animals as her, to small pets that are owned, cringing for their meat? Or maybe she was just surprised and angry that somebody interrupted our meditation… please explain.
Ella. I would love to see a picture of your carving when it is complete. I would even be interested in posting it here at Timberwolf HQ should you allow me to. As to your question about Xia’s reaction to Oliver, it was not one of disdain. The wolf is a teacher, a pathfinder. I feel that she was so involved with you in your desire to create the carving that Oliver’s sudden appearance surprised her. It may take some time, however Oliver will begin to enjoy the energy you have around you.
Keep us all informed about your carving.
Timberwolf
Hey Ella.
Good luck on your carving! I find that my wolf also dislikes dogs. Especially small ones like chihuahuas. The German Shepherds and and Golden Retrievers he doesn’t mind so much. I think I’ve already said this- he barks at passing dogs sometimes, and they look towards me with this blank look like they’re victims of bullies! Maybe it’s just a wolf thing?
Nikita, your wolf spirit is not barking in anger, merely encouraging the other dogs to become more involved in the life of their owners. The dog is the physical manifestation of a guardian spirit. Wolf spirit is reminding them of their role in the owners life.
Timberwolf
Hi Nikita,
I think that too. However, Xia seems to have a strange, motherly nature – when my grandma’s Shih Tzu puppy, Kammi, came up to play with Oliver, I felt an uplifting mood inside of me. I know it was Xia, because I could hear her tail swishing and her happy eyes burned in front of mine. Maybe she had puppies before.
Greetings,
I came back to post my conserve….I haven’t been able to contact Kayak lately and I’m confused. It’s like I’m trying for the first time all over again……What is happening?
Nicole
Hi Nicole…has anything happened recently that is making you anxious or causing you concern? Sometimes agitation can limit your ability to relax and make contact. This is then made worse by the confusion and then the desperation to make contact. Do no worry, Kayak is still with you. You only need to find the time to relax properly and to enter a deep meditative state.
Let me know how your next meditation goes.
Timberwolf
