Once you have answered the questions in the previous lesson and have your tentative list of animals, the next step is to read all you can find about those animals. Learn what their habits are, what kind of habitat they live in, their preferences and their prejudices.

Look for the desirable qualities in each of those animals, as well as at the negative shortcomings. Consider how they have adapted and developed abilities to enable them to coexist with increasing interaction with man in their traditional territories. Compare them to your own understanding of yourself. Do you see any paralells? Do you see any skills you wish you had, but know you lack? Opening the conscious mind to animal totems »»

The most beneficial way for the average person to begin to recognize their totems is to study their own interests and look in their own back yards, so to speak. In the following discussion, we will use the term animal. However, keep in mind totem animals are not necessarily mammals. They could be reptiles, insects, sea creatures, any of the life forms of the animal kingdom from anywhere in the world.

The most common misconception about totem animals is that the person chooses the animal. In reality, it is the other way around–the animal chooses you. So, start by looking at the animals you see every day. Slow down, and observe the world around you. Ask yourself this series of questions, and try to be spontaneous.

The natural power of animal totems has not been lost. Animals still have a vast store of knowledge and wisdom they can teach us. However, it is up to us as individuals to reestablish that connection. We must open our hearts and minds to their messages. We must learn to listen with our hearts and subconscious being.

We must open up our conscious minds and find a way to trust, and acknowledge our way isn’t the only way that’s right. Our ancestors understood these connections. If they could understand, then so can we. The same stories and “myths” are repeated around the globe in a thousand different languages and hundreds of different religions. Could they all be wrong?

Many of you are familiar with the concept of American Indians living in balance with nature before the invasion of Europeans and forced confinement on reservations. Most acknowledge they had superior powers to white men when it came to maintaining balance and harmony with their surroundings, in understanding the animals and natural phenomenons in their world, and yes, even in their healing abilities.

The same could be said for African Americans or the people who often live to be 140 in Chile. What most don’t seem to realize is these abilities were not wiped out with forced assimilation into white society or modern society. Nor are these powers limited to men and women of color or people of third world countries.

It’s not just that some people have forgotten things their ancestors knew. It is that they deny they ever existed. They do not have an open mind. They do not try to understand. They do not make any effort to remember. Many of these lessons are already embedded in the intricate workings of our brains, in the very core of our genetic makeup.

We are born with this knowledge. We know it as young children. Not all “imaginary” playmates are imagined. As we grow and begin to ask questions, adults question our understanding. They tell us we are wrong. Things are not as they appear. We are taught adults are wiser, so we listen. We believe. We learn their misconceptions. We unlearn things we knew were true. We form bad habits. We become closed to the world around us. Respect and Honor the Animals »»
