Náshdóíłbái's Superiority Through Patience
This Bobcat was recently photographed in Navajo lands. Bobcats are named "Náshdóíłbái" in the Navajo language and are respected and greatly honored by the Navajo People. Those who have the Bobcat spirit totem in their lives have much to learn.
Foremost, the Bobcat animal totem is a sign of patience. Bobcats are superior hunters, and they incorporate stealth, strategy and wield a great deal of patience in their hunting excursions. In this way, the Bobcat sends us a clear message that in order for us to get what we want, we must be willing to plan, adapt, and above all, have the patience to see our ideals manifest.
The Bobcat is a patient hunter and its messages often entail serenity, tolerance, understanding. Bobcat helps us to endure waiting for long periods to achieve a necessary goal.
