Numerous Native American cultures have the belief that a person is assigned an animal upon the time of birth. Dissimilar to the culture and society of today, Native Americans place a ginormous pre-eminence and thought in the names chosen for their children. These names translate into poetic epithets, and root in forces of nature, and relished personality characteristics.
You should find this very enthrallingly interesting if you’re into astrology and horoscopes. Represented by a variety of animals, Native Americans possess their own zodiac meanings. The animal that represents you is determined by your date of birth.

“The life of an Indian is like the wings of the air. That is why you notice the hawk knows how to get his prey. The Indian is like that. The hawk swoops down on its prey; so does the Indian. In his lament, he is like an animal. For instance, the coyote is sly; so is the Indian. The eagle is the same. That is why the Indian is always feathered up; he is a relative to the wings of the air.”
