Personally, I think that if one is talking about an individual, animal (or human) then that is a guide not a totem. A totem is a generic term for that breed or species of animal and their many traits and the lessons that can be learned from that particular animal. Totems come to help us and to show us how learning their way of life or their gifts, will enrich our own in some way. 7 of the 9 totems change as we grow and develop. 2 stay constant. And although guides do come and go they do not change nearly as often, and are distinctive. So for me your hearing one of the wisest and greatest baboons of the underworld would mean that he is here to guide you through a certain phase of your life. Not as just another baboon!
This could very well be true.
I myself have 3 animals surrounding me. I have a dolphin over my crown and he is there to teach me overall tranquility and love and gentle grace. I have an eagle on my right, and he is there to teach me a certain "perception" in how I see things and last but certainly not least, I have a baby owl on my left. He is very cute with large, brown eyes...he teaches me wisdom and as I grow older and learn new lessons, he grows with me.
I am told everyone has animals guiding them aswell as spirit guides
Hope this helps

There are horse in almost every dream I have. It makes me wonder if it is my animal totem or if my spirit guide is taking form of a horse, because it's something I easily relate too.
Aviendra, what a lovely post! It really made me smile, picture the little animal spiritual "family". Your very lucky to be so aware and in tune with them!

As long as we believe we have animals guiding us, they will come in that form. Spirit can and does take any form that brings comfort and communion.
To limit totems is to limit the input from an individual animal. Just because it has species traits (just as we do) does not preclude its abilities to impart individual characteristics.
A horse is considered one of the most psychic of animals. Seeing horses (and they are a frequent symbol in dreams and/or visions) is considered a sensitive approach. As we are a part of all things in a dream...it is our sensitivities that are addressed.
