The bull a powerful totem and considered sacred within a number of ancient cultures. Especially prevalent in ancient Egypt, symbols connect the horns of the bull with the sun. These impressive creatures are associated not only with physical might and power, but also spiritual resolve and inner strength. The bull (toro) is also a symbol of Torino.
The eye totem is commonly interpreted as a gateway to the soul, light vigilance and moral conscience. The hand totem according to Aristotle is the 'tool of tools' symbolising strength power and protection.
The moon totem is associated with feminine energy, cyclical change and the changing of the tides.

A totem can be a natural object such as an animal or plant that can represent a group of people, such as a family, clan, or tribe. They're commonly carved from wood or clay, then painted and serve as a sacred symbol of a group's ancestry or a revered object guiding and protecting you.
Inuit tribes hoped that through wearing animal amulets on your neck would, through sympathetic magic, give them the natural attributes of these creatures.
