Guardian Spirits

Guardian Spirits

There is a widespread practise among the Indians of North America to fast and pray in seclusion, often in a forest or on a mountain. During this time of seclusion the individual is visited by a guardian spirit. This spirit will often appear to the individual by way of a vision or dream in the guise of an animal or bird. The individual will secure power from the guardian spirit. Whole social groups often form a relationship with specific animals or bird species. MORE! [BM] {EC}
