“Spirikins are animal spirits. Each girl’s spirikin represents her inner self, and that defines which animal chooses her. The spirikin helps a girl acquire the one quality she needs but doesn’t have.”
~ Queen Mangi
Look into your heart: what quality do you need in your life? Do you need to become a better friend or a better listener? Do you need to learn how to ask for help—or maybe how to give it? Do you need to believe in yourself? To express what’s in your heart? Do you need to be more daring, or more patient, or more kind? These are powerful qualities, and to master them you’ll need help from a powerful guide: your spirikin.
You can’t find your spirikin by taking a simple quiz. You won’t find her by making a list of all the good qualities you already have (and you have many!) That’s because your spirikin isn’t about who you are now; she shows you who you can become. No one else can tell you what your spirikin is. The only expert is you!
Ready to find out? Choose one of your favorite things to do, and invite her to reveal herself…
Go on a walk: Go on a hike in the mountains, a stroll on the beach, or a walk around your neighborhood. What do you see? Do certain animals always seem to show up when you go for a walk? Even in the city you can find animals everywhere: eagles nesting on skyscrapers, spiders crafting beautiful webs. Animals can appear in paintings or murals or even show up on billboards or as designs on jewelry or clothes.
Dive into dreams: Before you go to bed, think about what you need to work on in your life. It’s OK if it feels like a really big scary goal to tackle. If you are brave and honest, you will call the exact spirikin you need. Right before you fall asleep, invite your spirikin to come find you in your dreams. Maybe the two of you will meet in Aventurine!
Explore silence: Find a beautiful or inspiring place to sit for a while. Close your eyes and concentrate on your breathing, or just watch the clouds in the sky or the wind moving through the grass. If you start worrying or making lists, set them aside and come back to the present. Your spirikin may come find you if you make space by getting quiet.
Make some noise: Listen to music you love—or jump up and start dancing! What kind of moves seem natural to you? You could even try moving like an animal—soar like a hawk or stalk like a tiger. Keep your mind open and have fun—see what kind of animal comes to dance with you!
Draw your spirikin: Find some time to draw or write. Think about the natural places and animals you feel a connection with. Animals have different strengths and talents. What kinds of strengths do you want to bring into your life? Just start drawing or writing and see what animal shows up on the page. Your spirikin could be as big as a bear or as small and delicate as a lightning bug.
Curl up and read: If you love reading, find stories and facts about animals. Check out forests, mountains, jungles, deserts, plains, oceans and rivers. What seems coolest to you—wolves and tigers, or dogs and cats? Look up birds like eagles, hawks, cranes and songbirds. Find images of whales, dolphins, seahorses and sea turtles. Even check out the smallest (and bravest) of creatures: rabbits and mice, frogs and lizards, dragonflies, spiders, even ladybugs.
Have fun and know that your spirikin will find you when the moment is right!
I am a white wolf. All I did was close my eyes and dreamed. I just let it come to me. It felt so real! I could smell the wind and it felt like it was going to rain. When it did it rained tiny golden droplets, and threw them I could see something moving. I remember feeling kind of strange, like someone dumped me in ice water. Then I could see a beautiful white wolf with the strangest green eyes……. then I woke and I remembered every detail!
I’m a white tiger. I’ve always found them interesting and they are always popping up in my dreams and in my life. The white tiger is beautiful and proud, two things I lacked because I was always self conscious and believed I wasn’t pretty at all. Now I’ve accepted myself and I’m proud of who I am.

I was dancing and the word mouse popped into my mind. Yet it was a very energetic dance. I have no idea how I got mouse but I’m not complaining.
I am a cat because I have two cats . Cats are one of my favorite animals . They sometimes come to me in my dreams . They scratch up the furniture, BUT… I love them .
I’m a panther. It is my favorite animal.
I think that I am a wolf, I have always gone a little crazy when I think about wolves. I’m like them in that they like to be alone but they also want to be in a pack. I also think that I have a wolf Spirikin because I am always smelling things that others don’t. I am also not like them because I’m not a good tracker, I don’t have great stamina, I’m not fierce, and I don’t know how to really fight. That’s why I think that I’m a wolf.
I am a Leopardess. I love the rain forest and climbing. I am wld and free. 😉
I will try to fined mine today. I think it might be a bird of some sort because I have dreams of flying.
If you have dreams of flying please tell me.
OMG it was the most amazing thing that ever happened to me! I went out in the woods behind our house to a pretty stump carpeted with moss. I go there often. I sat down and shut my eyes and thought about what I could be missing. Just then I heard a soft fluttering and tweeting. I looked up and all the trees were filled with birds. Small birds like chickadees and nuthatches and so on. I sat and just watched them for a few minuets. and then I heard a loud Ooo-Aaa-Aaa, or something along those lines. I glanced over and not even 5 trees away, just a little ways up, was two Pilleated Woodpeckers. We just sat there and stared at each other for a few long moments and then they flew of and started hoping around in the branches with the other birds.
I think I know what I am missing, wings.
Please Birdie, if this is my Spirikin, tell me
Hi, I’m new. I think my Spirikin is a dove. The reasons I think I’m a dove is because I love being up high like I am Flying, I love the colors turquoise, spring green, and pastel yellow, you know, like airy colors, and I love flowers.
I know I am a hawk because I have hawk themed superhero imaginary friends.
I LOVE turquoise, and the thought of flying
