Analysis
The themes that emerge
from the groups, correspond to the following five priorities.
- Group A represents self esteem
- Group B represents grace
- Group C represents intelligence
- Group D represents intuition
- Group E represents loyalty
If your favorite group was 'B',
then your highest priority would be grace. Similarly if group
'D' was third in your preference list, then your third priority
would be intuition.
Some animals represent a number
of different traits and have a variety of symbolisms. For example,
the lion represents both courage and strength. Each group is
therefore represented by three animals, instead of one, in order
to create a theme of similar traits and make a more valid assessment
of your preferences.
These are the symbolisms and characteristics
associated with the animals in each group.

Group B (grace)
