9 Beaver (Water)

The beaver is a large semiaquatic rodent with distinctive long front teeth, webbed back feet, large flat tails, and handle-like front paws. They live by freshwater lakes, ponds, rivers, and streams, where they construct elaborate dams out of rocks, vegetation, mud, and trees they have chewed down. They are best known for their industrious nature, working together to create dams that not only serve as their homes, but also create wetland habitat for other species. The beaver represents teamwork, building with a purpose, and productivity.

If you have a goal or a project in mind, now is probably a good time to either start working on it or step up your efforts, but don’t try to go it alone. “Many hands make light work,” as they say, and some tasks are better off being accomplished with the help of others. Find your team or your colony and make a plan to build something amazing together.

If there is a big job to be done, it is usually best to gather all the help you can. Sometimes this means asking others to pitch in and other times it might mean volunteering to help out someone else who needs it. This is how a community functions best, with everyone being willing to do what’s needed when it is needed. Make sure that you are contributing your share, but also don’t be afraid to ask for help.
