you-Only warn you. I feel now you may have a black bear around you. (There is more too). Bears come with dreams and nurturing young /protecting those
we love. Might have to google black bear for more of their wisdom.
I don't call them power animals, because its my mind, I see them as spirit guide taking on animal form...so in that sense, I don't think of them
specifically in terms of totem animals either, to me, they are spirit guides.
But yes, I'm unsure about the intentions of the elk, i just know the visions voices & dreams that came with it scared the absolute # out of me.
I felt like i was losing my mind. after the car crash (months ago) I feel like I've shed some of the b.s & feel better than ever....
big black bear? that sucks...why? because I was talking about cats and dogs with a mate and we were discussing what non dog/cat animals, fit in the
dog/cat category, I.E hyenas, fox, jackyl.....we decided they were all 'dog' animals because they had a snout...then i suddenly saw a bear &
remembered they have snouts too, and before i got a chance to think about it, the conversation changed. So what I find troubling, is that an image of
a bear was in my imagination last night. And I felt a presence next to me in bed that night, I'd brought a tin back from my mates house, I'm pretty
sure my mate lives in a haunted house, its a historical property which is protected by law & can't legally be renovated on, theres an old toy rocking
horse 50's era style, in what i imagine was the bedroom of a young child upstairs, no one goes upstairs at all anymore. too creepy.
Just quietly, my mate has micro 'episodes' sometimes where he 'loses his #' and once I swear I saw his eyes blacken over with an oily substance
when i mentioned reptilian nonsense to him, I brought it up as a joke but to look over & see his eyes like a djin possessed human, freaked me out,
didnt' mention it tho, he's my best friend, and I can't imagine him being able to cope with me saying crap about that sort of thing.
The presence I felt next to me in bed was accompanied with the mental image of a deteriorating decapitated head looking in my direction from the
pillow next to my head...I scolded myself for imagining things like that & told myself I was being silly & it was all due to the stress I was going
through as I had to appear in court today. But still. I don't need that kind of #, but interestingly, I thought to myself "I gotta get this tin back
to that house" and the wierd stuff stopped.
-B.M
P.S)alright, just used a smudging stick, Tibetan bell & singing bowl on the tin & the affected rooms....hopefully that will do the trick

still
taking the tin back to my mates house tho, but thinking I'll go smudge his house too. If he's putting up with what i did last night, but 24/7, then
its probably a good idea...
P.P.S) just found the book & deck of cards I got my animals from.
Its called
"medicine cards: the discovery of power through the way of animals"
by Jamie Sams & David Carson.
Illustrated by Angela C. Werneke.
WHATS FREAKY ABOUT THAT THO IS.........
The publishing company is 'Bear & Company" Santa fe, New Mexico.
Opposite to the title page is a picture of a bear in the middle of a dream catcher with animal bones, a feather stones & a bag of something hanging
from them.
think u were right about bears. time for some research......
