Raccoon Meaning, and Messages
In some cases, raccoon symbolism can also be reminding you to leave no stone unturned in your quest for resolution with the current problem you are facing. In other words, like the leopard, take the time to look at the whole picture, the seen and the unseen to find a solution. You have the ingenuity to resolve the problem.
Raccoon Totem, Spirit Animal
People with the raccoon totem tend to be both shy and charismatic at the same time. Once they get to know people around them, they are very sociable people. Folks with this spirit animal have an insatiable curiosity. This nosiness will occasionally blind them to the dangers of what they are exploring. They also thrive on new experiences and new activities. Thus they are an excellent problem solver and have a great deal of ingenuity in solving puzzles and mysteries. Like the seagull, their genius is always apparent to others, and they help others in problem-solving. People with this power animals energy are calm and serene under pressure. They often calculate in their response to chaos. These folks are very tactile and tend to use touch before all other senses.
Raccoon Dream Interpretation
When you have a raccoon dream, it can signify deceit and thievery. In other words, you are most likely not being completely honest in some situation. The vision could also suggest that you are hiding something. You are keeping a secret.
Alternatively, to dream of a coon could be a portrayal of an aspect of your personality. A trait that it is responding with unsavory behavior. Thus your self-awareness is letting you know that you are dishonest with yourself. Like the lion dream, that awareness will also help you overcome that dishonesty.
I’m curious. To whomever else here has a spirit animal, I’d love to hear what that animal is and if you have a story that goes along with it. I’ll go first. Oddly enough, my one & only has always been a Raccoon. Been that way for 6 years. A couple of years ago, my greatest experience with this animal occurred. At the time I lived in front of a 60 acre wooded area. One night I kept hearing my screen door popping.
I walked over to the door and a giant raccoon was placing his claw under the door, trying to pull it open. It had zero fear of me. I would pull the door open slightly & feed it, even let me pet it. This went on for about 2 weeks. Every other night & sometimes 2 or 3 nights in a row. I would sit outside & feed the little guy. Yes I know this contributed to his regular visits, but then one night it showed up with another adult & 2 very small raccoons.
It took a few minutes for the little ones to get comfortable with me, but they did. Just like every previous night, after around a 10-20 minute visit, it was off to the woods again. That was the very last visit. I never understood why, especially since they all obviously felt safe.
Thats a lovely experience. They trusted you enough to bring the kids. What a compliment to you!
My totem animal is the deer. I have had endless encounters with them. About two years ago i was walking in the woods and decided as i often do to go off trail and follow the animal trail. My eyes were on where i was walking and i was going at a slower pace when suddenly i looked up and a family of seven deer where laying there and staring at me. I slowly sat down on a stump and just rested with them for a while. I even sang to them and they never moved. A very special moment.
That’s awesome Brian! I am still shaken by my similar experience I had last night. I live across from an urban lake and have had other animal experiences mainly with birds and possums but last night I was sitting on my front porch as I always do and I suddenly hear something coming up on my deck to my right. I thought instantly it must be a cat as it was coming too close instead of staying in the large yard in front. To my surprise there was not just one but four raccoons following behind. I didn’t know whether to run or scream but I sat as still as possible and sweetly whispered hello to them. It was like they were holding hands sitting together and staring at me quietly. What felt like a few minutes of that stillness moment with them was only a few seconds but it was the most powerful universe energy connection (can’t even find the words) moment I have ever encountered. That’s what landed me here on this post. After reading this my jaw dropped as it describes me and my present situation perfectly. I didn’t have any food to offer them but I hope they come back. 😍
The very first week alone in a new house, I had eyes peeking in at me, it was a raccoon, same raccoon has lived here almost eight years, had three babies and stops bye to visit. Great spirit animal. Has brought me so much joy watching, good thing.
