Inchworm Meaning and Messages
In this case, Inchworm symbolism is reminding you to measure twice and cut once. In other words, take careful note of what you are trying to create right now. You must also make sure that the path is clear in front of you before you move ahead. In particular, Inchworm meaning dictates that you must be clear of your purpose behind this move forward. Thus the transformation that you are seeking must also be right for you. Therefore, take it in smaller steps rather than one fell swoop. Progress is good, but with this spirit animal, at a much slower pace right now.
Alternatively, Inchworm symbolism may be inching you toward a personal change or transformation. Thus you need to make your intentions or goals clear to yourself. Like the Snail, if you know where you want to go and you will get there.
Inchworm Totem, Spirit Animal
People with the Inchworm totem work well in trades such as cabinet making, construction, and architecture. These are all jobs where spatial ingenuity, mathematics, and measuring play significant roles in the ability to get the job done right. They also have a gift for slow and steady progress in everything they do. Thus they seem to make personal transformations and changes with ease. Folks with this spirit animal also have a secure spiritual connection with gardens and gardening. Moreover, similar to the cassowary totem, they love open green leafy spaces. If their work involves construction and design of any sort, most of their plans will incorporate modern ecological breakthroughs that give us new and innovative ergonomic designs.
Inchworm Dream Interpretation
When you have an Inchworm dream, it symbolizes that it is the little things that can be beneficial for your growth and well-being. Like the Moth, you need to pay attention to the minor details and not to overlook certain things.
Saw an inchworm just now! Fascinating.
Hi! This morning when I was walking in the school garden, just waiting my son from basket course, I was listening shamanic drum and saying myself some affirmations to make me feel better( bec i was anxious) … then suddenly notice that a caterpillar was walking directly to my way…..
September 8, 1970……What is my animal todem???
Good day. While in the process of the most important examination of my life, an inch worm appeared out of no where on my desk and onto my paper. I kept moving it and it kept on coming back. Evetually it left me alone and from since, I kept feeling that this little creature had a meaning. P.S. this is how I’m here. 🙂
This morning while walking the dog, I came across a spread of earthworms that are dead. They have dried up in the sun. But here is one that is still moving. Do you know what that interprets???
Hello,weird thing happened to me last night. I was on my phone surfing the web I’m a dark room. I felt setting moving only thumb and soon saw the shadow of an inch worm from the light on the phone screen. I video taped it and took screen shots of it. I have absolutely no idea where this creature came from. I had just showered and was laying in bed waiting for sleep to hit. I was wondering the meaning and if there is a significance to this. Any information will be appreciated.
I used to open the nettle to see the Caterpillar as the Gardner’s used to slice the nettles down, and save worms if they were drowning.
Recently I’ve seen an eagle,fish,squirrel and lived with a malfestation. I’ve come to find help please
Thank you. An inch worm crossed my path and I took note. Even wrote a small piece about it. My mother died recently. We didn’t really get on. And I don’t have much to do with the family–different views and values and ways of seeing the world. I am nervous about ‘what comes next’. I am in poor health and like to be independent, but know we are all co-dependant in a way…. Your advice has helped me to choose not jump into something before right timing…I can wait. I am good at pacing. I do like a garden and have spent the morning in our garden: Northcote Community Gardens. It is sunny today in Melbourne Australia and the garden is looking grand. I will be checking out your site more often. Especially when the signs are there. d.
I really don’t know what an inchworm is, and have not dreamt about worms. However, I have lived on my property for 30 years, I don’t garden, have very little grass. Yesterday, I saw dozens of earthworms, crawling on the walkway, and the top of the ground. I have several cats, and none of the cats showed any interest in the worms. I’m always looking for signs, but have no idea if this means anything. Signed, In dire need of a break, any break.
I live in a basement apartment with a concrete breezeway. In hot weather, sometime in the evening, literally hundreds of earthworms appear in the breezeway and crawl all over. A few get under my door and show up in my kitchen and bathroom. They don’t seem to be harmful but I’m not excited about having them living with me. In the morning, there is no sign of them in the breezeway…I don’t know where they go. How can I prevent therm from getting into my apartment? 🙁
I saw an inchworm on a photo of my son today..i see alot of meaning behind this.
Good morning! Wondering if you could speak to the significance of caterpillar as a spirit guide. I had a very vivid visit from caterpillar in my dreams last night. Your page has always been my “go to” for insight on my spirit guide meetings and I thank you for your time and energy in imparting this wisdom to all of us who seek it. Namaste!
This message rings true from inchworm. I was meeting with my shaman today to get guidance. After taking a deep dive, I reached for my journal. An inchworm was on it!
I was looking for the totem/animal medicine of a red garden worm, but his is powerful for me now. Thank you!
I am writing also to let you know there is a typo above. You wrote:
Take careful not of what you are trying to create right now and make sure that the path is clear in front of you before moving ahead.
I think you meant careful ‘note’. Not ‘not’. Measure twice!!
Cheers!
Elizheva: Thank You!
