Native American Astrology:
The Otter Sign
By: Jeanine Byers Hoag

The Medicine Wheel

The Native American medicine wheel is the basis for Native American astrology and is divided into a twelve-month calendar system with twelve signs. These twelve Native American zodiac signs each have a corresponding animal. In this article, we will focus on the otter.

See: Medicine Wheel - The medicine wheel is a symbol for the wheel of life.

If you were born between January 20thand February 15th, your primary animal is the otter.


The Otter

"The charming and friendly otter is the most playful of animals in the wild. Both river and sea otters are happy when entertaining others." -Deborah Durbin, Simply Native American Astrology

Otter Totem Characteristics

There are times when you are sensitive and shy. And you also are often gentle and patient with others. But then there are times when you are not only enthusiastic, outgoing and lively, you can be quite the exhibitionist! Either way, you are likely to be quite strong-willed and you can be forceful when you want your way.

Does that sound like you?

You have very strong convictions and at times, can seem opinionated. If you believe in something, you are willing to fight for it and you are likely to argue vehemently about it.

Nonetheless, you can be tolerant of people whose opinions differ from yours. Even if you strongly disagree, you are likely to admit when they have a valid argument and accept your difference of opinion.

Despite your strong convictions, you are blessed with the ability to be objective. Though you are often frank and outspoken, you are also a personable and likable companion.

You can be idealistic and romantic but also can be practical. And once you make a commitment, you are committed for life.

You need time alone to recharge and you enjoy your own company. But when you are with others, you are warm and kind and can be friendly and outgoing.

People born under this sign are intelligent, innovative and intuitive, and sometimes adopt an unconventional lifestyle, being drawn to what is unusual or unique.

Once you set a goal, you are undeterred by disappointment, and willing to go against the tide.
You do not appreciate interference from others, and will resist it, even when you know they mean well. You are not likely to be a follower, instead, you are the one who sets the trends.

Though you are capable of warmth and friendliness, at times you can be quite aloof and you do not usually seek out relationships with others. You may have a tendency to withdraw, preferring to be alone.

Professionally, you are likely to be well-suited for leadership roles and work involving research, science, or writing.
