Brighid's Fire - Animal Attributes

The following list of animal attributes has been gleaned from two sources: the Druid Animal Oracle by Philip & Stephanie Carr-Gomm (ISBN 0671503006) and Animal Speak by Ted Andrews (ISBN 0875420281). Both of these books should be available at your local metaphysical shop and at larger retail booksellers or you may purchase them from Amazon.com in association with Brighid's Fire. Just click on the links that follow the table of attributes.
