I’ve written a lot about the generalities related to totem animals over the past few weeks, and I’ve also helped a number of people discover their allies in the animal kingdom. (. (If you’re interested in this too, write to me.) So, one question that has come up several times is how to activate the totem’s presence and energy? A simple thought and an inner call to them is enough. Or wearing a symbol on your clothes, a piece of jewelry or a tattoo can also activate this energy. There are many subtleties here that I can’t quickly describe, because it’s been a lifetime’s work. I received a request to talk about the crane, and I realized that I hadn’t yet mentioned this totem with which I’ve had many encounters, both in nature and in my meditations. So here it is!
TOTEM ANIMALS – continued
We have 7 animal totems: one in front of us, one behind us, on each side, above, below and within. Once you’ve determined that an animal is a totem, you look in your inner vision or feeling to see where it goes.
TOTEM ANIMALS – continued
Here’s a continuation of last week’s article on Totem Animals:
All animals are bearers of specific teachings. The eagle, for example, is the messenger for Great Spirit, a vector of connection with the Divine. It represents the possibility of balancing our lives between the spiritual and material worlds.
WHAT IS THE ANIMAL TOTEM?
Every person has allies, in each of the kingdoms present on the planet: mineral, plant, animal and human. We’re talking here about the spirit of a living being, in the sense given to it by Plato when he spoke of the archetypes, i.e. the luminous thought-form that constitutes the essence of a being. In the indigenous world view, there are several dimensions and worlds, but in particular Ungawi, the world of ideal form.
WHAT WE REALLY NEED IS PURIFICATION
The most important practice for our ongoing evolution as individuals is purification.
A GLOBAL SOLUTION
(I’m reposting here one of the most important articles on my blog. This is what I consider to be my life mission, what I’ve been thinking about and striving for since a very young age, namely life in fullness and an intelligent, logical way of life. I had seen at the age of 5 that humanity had lost this. So, in a short and succinct form, here’s what I consider to be the best solution to our civilizational problems.

THE INTERPRETATION OF SIGNS AND DREAMS
Great Spirit speaks to us
The Creator, the Great Spirit, the Primordial Intelligence who creates and organises the universe speaks to us. He is in constant communication with us. His language is the one of creation. He speaks neither in French nor in English nor in Innu-Aïmun. It is through the world he created for us that he speaks to us. He is within us, as the most intimate, the actual essence of who we are. It’s that part of us that can understand the messages as they are embedded in the landscapes of the world.

CONNECTING WITH THE LAND
As I connect with the land and the people in Alberta, Canada, I’m reminded why I chose so long ago to uphold and teach the ancient wisdom of our native lands.
