If Goat is your spirit animal, it might mean that you need to give up something in order to get something else that’s far more useful in your everyday life. The reason behind this comes from ancient times when the Goat was sacrificial. Goats were so respected and valued that no part of him/her could go to waste. Thus, Goat skin water bags, Goat hair rugs, and such.
Arabic stories represent Goat as having great dignity and composure. In European tales, Goat is associated with obstinance and tenacity. The Chinese portray Goat as the embodiment of goodness and harmony, assigning the Yang principle (most associated with the male).
As such, the male goat represents virility, while the female goat characterizes reproduction. The Goat can also be a symbol of sensuality, determination, health and vitality.
The Goat as a Spirit Animal assures that you maintain balance and sure-footed determination, even if you are teetering with on a very small metaphoric shelf, reminding you that if you want to reach for the stars, you must trust yourself and find the confidence to lead your own charge.
