Moose (Alces Alces)

The word Moose first entered the English language in the 1600s, borrowed from the Algonquin languages spoken in the Northeastern parts of the US & Canada.

If you’ve ever seen a Moose up close, you know that they are a commanding presence. Despite being the second largest land mammal in North America, the Moose is a herbivore, powering its massive frame with aquatic plants, grasses, and saplings. A calm and gentle being unless provoked, they are the epitome of speak softly and carry a big stick.

To dream of a Moose symbolizes a trust in oneself and one’s instincts. To see a Moose, no matter its size, is a reminder to tap into your inner strength and remain calm and grounded when the world provokes you. Remember, your gentleness is your greatest strength.
