Turtle Symbolism
"The turtle symbolism is characterized by the association with the Earth and earth symbols of groundedness and patience:"

• Symbol of the world, of the Earth
• Ability to stay grounded, even in moments of disturbances and chaos
• Slowing down, pacing yourself
• Determination, persistence
• Emotional strength and understanding
• Ancient wisdom

"The turtle is also linked to the spirit of the water and the fluid nature of emotions." - source
