FROG
“Are you ready to leap forward? Do you need to cleanse away negative thoughts or energies that are holding you back? Do you believe you have good luck and great prosperity? Have you kissed any “frogs” lately?
Frog totem is an ally that helps you make significant leaps forward in your life, as well as in your soul’s evolution. When Frog hops in, it may be alerting you to get ready to take action. Whether you are catapulting upward in your career or your spiritual practice, Frog symbolizes that you are ready. Metamorphosis is another aspect of this amphibian’s medicine. The significance of the metamorphosis from tadpole to frog adds another layer to Frog’s forward-leaping energy.”
