What's the difference between a spirit animal and an oracle animal?

A spirit animal is a long-term guide that stays with you throughout life or during specific phases. An oracle animal is drawn for immediate guidance — it appears to deliver a specific message for your current moment. Both can be powerful sources of insight and reflection.
