The Gorilla Spirit Animal

Gorilla spiritual meaning

Balance: We often see The Gorilla on 2 legs, symbolizing the balance we have got in our lives (or not). Is there something you are not letting go of? Are you working too hard? Is someone being unreasonable about something? Are you dealing with a breakup or passing?

Questions: Where do questions need to be asked or answered? Is someone asking questions about you? Where in your life is there a question mark that needs you to provide the answer?

Career: The Gorilla can be a card about career and job prospects. It can signify a person or a situation where things will improve. Looking for work? This is a good omen!

Fear: The Gorilla can sometimesbe what is called a fear card. This very much depends on how you feel about these animals. If they make you shudder or panic at the thought then look at both reversed and upright meanings.

The Gorilla can signify a male friend or relative or family disagreements. It can indicate a person with depression or bereavement. It can refer to a symbolic death of something important like the loss of a job or business.

There is help out there for you. It may be in the form of moral support from friends or family, financial assistance from social welfare, or even the kindness of strangers but whatever it is, take it.
