Power animal



Ever wondered what power animal you have to protect you? Here is how I learned from my grandfather who was a shaman. A spiritual being with the ability to heal, work with energies and see visions, he was a master of energy and fire as a medium of transformation. He guided others on vision quests.

I have a good friend who is also a Shaman and I have been on many vision quests, the most beautiful experience I have ever experienced. My first journey I found my power animal the Wolf.

Close your eyes and rid yourself of any thoughts.. Center and ground yourself allowing your spirit to soar. Visualize yourself soaring above the ground.. as if in flight. See the ancient forest..
visualize walking upon the rugged path.. feeling mother earth below your feet reaching deep into your soul... walking towards the giant waterfall absorbing the mist that cleanses your mind,
in silence you walk out of the ancient forest to the sacred bonfire... what animals do you see waiting for you.

It's a deep experience... I hope you find your power animal to protect and guide you through life. What ever animal you see research power animals and learn all that you can about them...

Wolf~

The image of the wild wolf howling at the moon is a powerful symbol that affects everyone, but for those with a Wolf totem or power animal is a reminder of the importance of personal freedom. Occasional escape from the restrictive chains of civilization is essential for the wolf shaman’s happiness and spiritual well-being. Camping in the wilderness, fishing alone for a day, a walk in a wildwood or a trip to the sea all offer the opportunity for reconnection with nature, and to spend time alone with that wonderful friend, the wolf power animal.







All is quiet as dusk falls. Then, excitement charges through the air as she breaks the horizon. There rises the phoenix, riding a column of flame into the heavens. Like a star, she shines with unfaded glory as she rockets through the clouds.

These are the last of her days, and she knows it well. Long has been her life, as she is ressurected after each fiery plunge back to us. Soon though, she will take on a new form for a new age.

Nonetheless, she is our beakon, our symbol of hope. She is the fiery lance that galvanizes us into one people with one dream. No man, woman or child can ever set eyes upon her power and stand unmoved. As long as we have the phoenix in our hearts, the innocent will never fall.

secret mask







Hide me
From
Me.
Hide me from
A world
That reminds us
Only of the
Possibilities.
Hide me
From the
Searching heart,
So far gone
That the answer
To the
Question,
Is no answer
At all.
Hide me from
Myself
So that I
Might once again
Find you
And realize that
I am not
Truly
Alone
In my
Loneliness.
Hide me
From what is
And is not
There.
Please
Hide me.
