I loved that movie…listened to the soundtrack before every wrestling match!!
All I know is I seem to be on a perpetual vision quest. I know what my purpose in life is, it’s the way of going about it that I’ve been fighting.

Yep, several. They are the highlight of spiritual learning. I recommend the Ted Andrews books for power animals – Animal Wise and Animal Speak. Both a still available through Amazon.com
If you are new to journeying, I highly recommend finding someone skilled to guide your first one. You don’t need to go full out, a simple guided meditation will bring you quality just as well as a full journey with three day fast. In fact, not all full journeys with three day fasts bring awe inspiring results, especially if you expect too much going in.
What I have learned is amazing and simple, jarring and painful. To journey is to open yourself up to your full potential and that can be wonderful and scary at the same time. You will change each time, especially if you fully embrace the process. So, what are you waiting for?
