Most Common Animals in Illustration and Their Associated “Flaw”

Although there are several versions of the image, these animals are often recognized:

The Elephant – Stubbornness

Notable Trait: Difficulty changing your mind and recognizing mistakes.
Description: If the first thing you notice is an elephant, you tend to have very strong convictions and find it difficult to give in to other perspectives. You are loyal and protective of those you care about, but you can also become locked into your own point of view, missing opportunities to learn from others.

Iguana – Coldness or Aloofness

Notable Trait: A tendency to maintain a certain emotional distance and appear indifferent to what is happening around you.

Description: If the first animal you saw was an iguana, you may have a reserved attitude and prefer to observe silently before getting involved. Although your ability to remain calm can be useful in times of tension, you run the risk of isolating yourself or not expressing how you feel. Learning to show your emotions in a balanced way will help you establish more authentic and deeper relationships.

The Pig – Excess or Debauchery

Significant Trait: A tendency toward gluttony or compulsive habits.
Description: If the first animal you notice is a pig, you may be inclined to indulge in unbridled pleasures, whether in food, shopping, or other areas. Although you enjoy life, it is important to set limits to avoid excesses that harm your health or your financial and emotional stability.

The Cricket – Restlessness or Anxiety

Significant Trait: Constant nervousness and difficulty relaxing.
Description: Seeing a cricket first indicates that you often struggle to remain calm in the face of pressures from your surroundings. You are perceptive, but that same sensitivity can lead you to worry excessively. Practicing relaxation techniques and cultivating self-confidence will help you better manage daily stress.
