A record keeper is the name for a crystal with a trigonal crystal structure, or triangles, that appear to be “etched” as growths or indentations onto the surface of the stone. Often times, there are many triangle shapes etched within other triangle shapes, creating a lattice patterning of triangles.
They’re said to hold the energetic imprint and ancient wisdom and knowledge of the Universe and past civilizations here on Earth. Many believe that they were programmed by past civilizations, like Atlantis and Lemuria. They act as keys to unlock information about past lives. They were believed to be formed during the Ice Age through air bubbles that froze over time. Record keepers are exceptional tools to use in mediation. Ask your record keeper questions and to show you its stored knowledge. Record keepers provide a sense of deep peace and universal understanding.
According to, spirit-animals.com, Otter's messge is, "It's time to let go of control and surrender to the moment. Allowing the universe to move in its own way will often manifest your dreams beyond your wildest expectations."
Otter gives us, "the knowledge that you have to take care of yourself first to be of use to others. Therefore you need to go with the natural flow, and the ebbs and tides of your life. Only then you can find joy and wonder in the small things that give you pleasure as an adult, and that gave you pleasure as a child."
Although Sea Otters don't mate for life, the River Otters used in my lunar artwork this month do. Regardless of monogomy, all Otter couples and family members hold hands while they're sleeping so that they won't drift apart. Otters are also known to keep the same "pet rock" for their entire lifes, tucking it inside their armpit folds for safe keeping. They pariodically play with the rock, bouncing it from paw to paw across their chest. Although no one knows for sure why they do this, I like to think it's their way of kicking back and letting go with the flow. Otters are known for being playful, energetic creatures. They work hard but also make sure to take time out to play with their loved ones and favorite rock.

According to, WhatIsMySpiritAnimal.com
"The connection with living moving water gives Otter the meaning of an awareness of the subconscious, emotions and psychism. Observing Otter it becomes very apparent that these creatures see life as a true playground to be filled with family and friends. Very often Otter shows up in people’s lives when they’ve become too serious, over-think things and lose sight of their inner child. One of Otter’s mottos is: play as if no one is looking (and if possible have someone join you!). Otter is also a creature always up for a bit of adventure, letting curiosity direct them. They don’t worry about what’s left behind but rather look forward. This is a great lesson from Otter Spirit – you can’t embrace new things if you’re always clinging to what’s behind. This doesn’t mean that you just forget about difficulties, but rather find a way to smile and get a different perspective that may very well solve the whole shebang."
