Wolf is represented by Sirius, the Dog Star. Many of the animal totems can be found above in the stars for the spirits were seen as everywhere and within everything. The senses of wolf are keen and the moon is its ally. Baying at the moon is seen as a way to gain hidden knowledge. In our paper we have tried to show you that the Shaman is unique, because they are primarily a technology of symbols and the psyche.
Shamanism is the world's oldest healing tradition, and is found in all cultures of the world.
Through time humans have sought many avenues in order to achieve understanding of the world around them and their place within the order of things. The use of spirit guides is one of the oldest and most long-lived of these methods. We enjoyed researching this paper and hope that others may gain some knowledge of one of the methods used by shamans to achieve insight. I am a Native American embarking upon the journey that will make me into a shaman in my community. I hope my ancestors will guide the way to my spiritual fulfillment.
