Many birthmark shape meanings can help you to discover what the shape of your birthmark says about you – and what the future might hold!

Along with placement and coloring, the shape holds essential symbolic meaning that can help you to narrow down the wisdom that you can gain from studying it.

Birthmarks have long held symbolic significance for people all over the world. What does the shape of yours tell you?

Heart Shape Birthmark Meaning

A symbol of universal love and deep connections, someone with a heart-shaped mark will experience the highs and lows of true love.

It signifies someone who has a lot of challenges through their life relating to their ability to connect with other people.

For some, this means that they struggle to communicate with people, but for others, it can mean that they struggle with the need to connect with people.

This one can also be useful as a way to find love. More than a few twin flames have shared heart-shaped birthmarks, which is mostly down to twin flame synchronicity.

If you have this shape, then you should pay attention to how you connect with people and be sure to protect yourself in relationships.

You should also be on the lookout for anybody with a matching mark, especially if it appears on the same part of the body! You might just be meant to be.

Animal Shape Birthmark Meaning

When you have an animal-shaped birthmark, it usually means that you have a powerful connection with it as a spirit animal or animal totem.

The meaning depends on the animal, of course. Here are a few common ones:

Cat

Including a cat’s paw or ears. Having feline markings indicates someone independent, aloof, and cautious.

You will find strength in your ability to adapt to new situations and can be relied upon to get things done.

However, you can’t guarantee you will be cheerful while you do it.

Dog

Including paws and ears as with cats. Indicates a loyal friend and a driven personality.

You thrive when working as a team and enjoy achieving things with your friends.

Although you are always exhausted by the end of the day, that doesn’t slow you down the next morning.

Bird

Avian type markings include wings, feathers, claws, and beaks. Indicates someone who thinks differently and tries to find a different perspective on everyone else.

You value freedom over everything else, and this means being your person in action and thought.

Like a bird sees the earth from a bird’s eye view, you see the world in an entirely different way to others around you.

Although this has led you to be shunned by some people, it is your best feature to others.

Snake

Indicates someone prone to deception, either deceiving others or being deceived themselves.

Secrets will play a part in their life in a significant way.

You will likely go through many transformations throughout your life.

At each stage, you will need to face your shortcomings and see them down to move forward towards happiness.

Fish

Including seashells and other sea life. Indicates someone whose ability to deal with their emotions will play a pivotal role throughout their life.

You will often feel as though you are drowning, but you have the power to lift yourself through it.

By doing so, you can unlock the innate empathic skills that accompany this shape of birthmark.

Sacred Geometry Shape Birthmark Meaning

Numerous sacred geometries can appear as birthmarks, and someone who has one of these is thought to be a Light Worker.

A particular race of beings that exist here on Earth to help us ascend to a higher dimension of consciousness.

These are very, very rare and always indicate a spiritually important person.

If you have one of these, then your journey is integral to the mission that humanity is taking right now.

Other birthmarks can also indicate that you are a starseed lightworker. Most starseeds have a prominent birthmark that is very noticeable.

Injuries, Wounds & Past Lives

Many injuries and wounds from past lives can carry over into the next life if they hold enough significance to the soul, storing meaning in the birthmark shape.

Any injuries that are just to the body will stay with the physical body when death comes, and you are reborn into a new one.

But injuries that are as mentally traumatic as they were physical can carry over because the wounding is on your spirit – the constant between your lives.

If you carry one of these birthmarks, then you might benefit from visiting a medium, who can tell you more about your past life and the old wounds and trauma that you could still be carrying.

Addressing the issue by delving into your soul history will save you the pain and misery of not knowing why you still have trauma when you don’t remember experiencing any!

Left alone, it could otherwise be a sap on your aura and energy for your entire life.

Rope Burn

Usually indicates death by hanging. It doesn’t necessarily have to appear on the neck, as it can appear on the wrists and the fingers as well.

Sometimes it won’t be a birthmark at all, often (as I have) you will have a knot or lump in your neck.

You would look at the color to discern whether this was a suicide or otherwise, with redder coloring indicating a more violent death and darker coloring showing a depressive state of mind surrounding it.

Bullet Wound

A single recessed birthmark that resembles a bullet wound might be exactly that!

Many of these birthmarks started showing up in the 50s, shortly after two world wars caused a lot of traumatic deaths by gunshot.

Scattered “Shrapnel”

Similarly, if you have many “bullet wound” shaped birthmarks but they are small and faint, then it can indicate a more violent death.

These birthmarks, in particular, seem to carry with them some of the old trauma that caused them.
