I know we had a question like this in another thread, but I can't remember where it was...

I'm trying to pick an animal to represent my T for a story I'm writing and really having a rough time. Looking up all sorts of symbolism and can't decide.

Bear, wolf, eagle, hawk, crane.

Physically, the crane or eagle would probably fit best, but I like the idea of him as a strong, protecting bear. Anyway, it made me wonder, what animal would you pick to represent your T?

Or other mythological creature?

Yaku,
For me it would be a lion. My T is very steadfast and able to stand and face anything, in many ways he has been an embodiment of courage for me. Lion-hearted suits him. There is also something very commanding about him. But beyond that is the fact that I very much feel he has been a conduit for God's healing and an incarnation of God's care for me, so I like the association of the lion with Aslan of Narnia.

My T2 reminds me of a leprechaun. I know that's not technically an animal in the sense that this thread intended, but that's the most fitting description I can come up with. She's tiny, but full of fiesty energy. What she lacks in size, she makes up for in personality and charisma. She is sassy and quick-witted. Very opinionated and does not hesitate to call me out and challenge me.


T1 reminds me of a cat. Or an old dog. Or a sleepy dolphin.
