Shark Wisdom

In Hawaiian culture, the shark is known as a powerful ally. His Hawaiian name is "Mano". Hawaiian elders will tell you that someone who befriends the shark will always be protected in ocean waters when swimming or fishing. Hawaiians often wear a shark tooth around their neck to ward of a shark attack.

If shark is your animal medicine, it is with you so that you can conquer your fears. "Fear, says shark, will hold you back from doing the simplest things". Be brave and go forward without fear in your heart and life will get easier day-by-day. Everyone needs a little push to do the things they are afraid of. Whether it is diving off the high dive for the first time, or asking a boy to dance at a sock hop, you will have the courage to push through your fears with Shark at your side.
