Bobcat Animal Totem Meanings

When dealing with social settings (friends, family, work) the Bobcat reminds us to be fully aware. We must be mindful to extend our respect, love and consideration with others.

As the bobcat is primarily a solitary creature, we may take its presence as a sign for us to step back from the company of certain people in our lives. Or, the bobcat may be trying to tell us that we need some time to ourselves. Alone time is time for us to reflect, and regain our energy. The bobcat intrinsically knows this, and maybe trying to tell you to take a break away from the public eye.

Bobcat animal meaning is all about waiting for just the right moment to pounce on an opportunity.

Lessons From the Bobcat

Additionally, when bobcat appears to us, we need to consider some passions that we have been keeping a secret. Now is the time to unleash our hidden desires – unlock our inner secret wisdom & talents.

As you can see, bobcat has much to share with us, but we must be willing and open to receiving these messages.

The bobcat is a very advanced teacher. Those with the bobcat animal totem are usually young with old souls. Often these people are mistaken for having “chips on their shoulders,” or thought to be “bearing grudges.” This often isn’t the case.

The bobcat serves as a teacher to these younger people because they have so much to philosophically sort out. These people do this on a higher level of intellect, and often cannot find outside support to help them with their learning process. As a result, these old souls tend to feel a little resentful at having to learn some tough lessons on their own, and usually feel isolated.

“The bobcat is often a sign that it’s time to leap out of hiding and show our power and potential to the world.”
