If you're feeling overly emotional around others, pay close attention to the source of the energy. Is the energy yours or someone else’s? Use the armadillo armor to defend yourself against other's energies that you are tired of experiencing.

Animal: Armadillo
Key Words: Boundaries.
Description: You may feel an overwhelming need to just curl up and hide. The current situation may have left you feeling vulnerable and in need of armor. Or, you might feel that the only way to win is to hide behind armor and pretend that you're invincible. Vulnerability is at the root of love and passion. You must open up and expose that underbelly carefully so as to protect what you are most sensitive too and make forward progress. Curling up traps your insecurities within causing them to overwhelm your actions and block out the calm healing energy of creativity. Consider the current challenge an opportunity to unravel and find strength in your own creations.
