This article covers Taurus Spirit Animals. I love the idea of “animal spirit guides” and this is something I have explored and experimented with since I was in my early 20’s. So I decided to create some fun posts covering spirit animals associated with the zodiac signs. I also created “woodland forest creature” versions for each zodiac sign and you will see that animal in this article.
What are Animal Spirit Guides?
- Animal spirit guides are essentially metaphysical beings or energies that are associated with a particular animal. It is believed that these guides are here to act as spiritual teachers, offering guidance and wisdom to individuals who seek to connect with them.
- Some people believe that animal spirit guides can appear in dreams, visions, or meditations, while others believe that they can be called upon through rituals or ceremonies. In many cultures and spiritual traditions, animal spirit guides play an important role in healing, personal growth, and spiritual development.
What animals are typically associated with Taurus?
- Taurus spirit animals often represent strength, determination, reliability, power and stability. Remember that your spirit animal is a reflection of your inner self, so embrace its qualities and let its energy guide you on your journey. Allow yourself to be inspired by their unique traits and characteristics.
- Here are animals often associated with Taurus – the Bull, Cow, Ox, Dove and my woodland forest addition, the moose.

All of which the Taurus individual can embody. Cow reminds us of the importance of providing sustenance, care, and protection to those around you.
