The Orangutan or Ape Totem
by: ManiZone Administrator
The Orangutan, also known as one of the Great Apes is the most human like of their species. The Orangutan or Ape is startlingly similar in anatomy, physiology and behavior. They are problem solvers, advanced tool users, and display a high level of intelligence. Their bodies are very strong and agile. They are mostly tree dwellers but spend some time on the forest floor. Many scientists believe that Orangutan’s walked the Earth for as long as 13 million years. Orang means “person” and Utan “forest” in Malay, thus the Orangutan literally translates to “person of the forest.” Their life span is in excess of sixty years. They are one of our closest relatives in the animal kingdom.
Legends say that the Orangutan can speak but that they are too wise to allow man to witness them doing so. They fear that if man knew this secret they would be taken from their homes and will never be left in peace to enjoy their happy lives in the tropical rain forests.
The Orangutan Totem possesses the following virtues:
Problem solving skills, long life, spatial perception, agility, survival skills, intuition, travel, wisdom, survival skills, motion, wit, charm, body strength and insight.
Orangutan Pearls are said to impart their particular magical virtues to their owner. Their Pearls are characteristic of their host animal; they possess all the splendid characteristics that may be seen in these creatures themselves; the keen intelligence and strength of the Orangutan are contained within their pearls waiting for the proper owner to bestow their inner magic to that unique and fortunate individual.
