Hard Bonus: Include a Pablo Neruda poetry line or quote
Easy Bonus: Incorporate something psychedelic or use the word “psychedelic”
Music, like peyote, is a psychedelic except without any negative side effects, so release those natural endorphins in your own body system and be a Dream Weaver! I remember the one time I was at a sweat lodge with an Elder and a pipe carrier. On one hand, it would have been nice if it were all women, because it has a special strength, but was also glad the Elder was with us. I was hoping to find my totems, but, a couple of the ladies got lightheaded…
I thought a jackalope came to me, but, because we didn’t go far enough, the Elder explained that because things come in 4s, usually it’s the 4th animal or the 4th time the same animal comes to you is your Animal Spirit Totem… Maybe I should be glad mine might not be a fictitious critter, tho a dragon or Kirin would have been cool. Though deer is a messenger of God in Japan, there are also fox, snake & monkey, although maybe because I was born in the year of the rooster, maybe that’s one. Eagles/hawks, bison, bears, wolves, etc., are revered here in the USA. But being from Wisconsin, maybe I’m a rabid badger, idk… lol, the main purpose of these is to sweat out the toxins, and usually happens in the evening/nighttime. “As if you were on fire from within. The moon lives in the lining of your skin.”
― Pablo Neruda sums it up.
There was a story the Spiritual Leader told me about being adopted into the tribe and how to get sponsored. But there’s a character called Echo. Echo mimics everything you do, and if you dream about him, he’ll find you. When he finds you in person, you have to go with him, and then you’re adopted into his tribe. To try to Run, Run Away, like resistance is futile.
