Frog as medicine:
Frogs are considered powerful symbols that can represent transformation, cleansing, renewal, vitality, and good luck. The frog's rhythmic croaking in the spring is said to remind us of the cycles of nature and the process of renewal. The frog's ability to leave behind its tadpole stage is said to guide us to let go of the past, and to embrace the present moment. The frog's spiritual energy is said to urge us to forgive ourselves and others, to relinquish regrets and resentments, and to step into the fullness of the present with an open heart.
