The otter is a feminine totem. It's fur and pelts have
been used from time immemorial by medicine people the world over to hold
their medicine tools.
Otter is the symbol of grace and empathy. Otter medicine takes great pleasure in the success and happiness of others, and will work untiringly to help others achieve that. There is no selfishness in otter. They could never be mean, or self-centered, or self-driven. You will not find an otter who gossips, or who "flames" others, or who is unnecessarily critical in a vengeful way for the purpose of otter is to support and enhance OTHERS, not themselves.
Otter is also a signal that you need to take more time for yourself to just play and be silly. Lighten up! You must feed otter's playful side so that she can continue to help balance your great concern for the welfare of others. We lose sight, sometimes, of our own spirit's need to be lighthearted and to laugh and be childlike. That is a very important element in walking in balance.
