Animalistic imagery is widespread in a wide variety of occult disciplines, as well as in paganism, shamanism, and other ancient religions. In many religions, animals have been worshiped as incarnations of the gods. It was often believed that a deity is hidden in the shell of the beast, the progenitor of the social group to which a person belongs. Such an animal is considered totemic and serves as an object of worship, since it is believed that it is the patron saint of a certain social group, tribe, clan. A person can also have his own totem, given to him from birth.
Instructions
Step 1
There are many ways to define your totem animal, the image of which is designed to protect and help a person. Among them, such as: a trip to the zoo in order to provide the soul with a choice of the sacred beast, the use of various kinds of calendars "with an animalistic bias" and others. A good way to figure out your totem is to trust your subconscious. Sit comfortably in an armchair (it is better not to lie down, since you can fall asleep until the result is achieved), resting your hands on the armrest, leaning back and closing your eyes. Try to completely and completely relax all muscles. Pay attention to each muscle, commanding it to relax.
Step 2
Stop internal dialogue. There are many ways to do this. The best is to focus on the pauses between inhalation and exhalation. Gradually, thoughts will subside.
Step 3
Imagine walking through the woods. Then you see a cave in front of you. You step into this dark hole, feeling the stone under your feet, breathing in the moist fragrant air, hearing the murmur of a stream and the chirping of birds somewhere outside.
Step 4
Go through the cave or through and exit from the other side of it. There is an open space in front of you. Let it be a lawn, a field, the top of a cliff supporting the sky. You will feel everything that you feel, being alone with nature: delight, peace, unity.
Step 5
Allow yourself to see your totem animal. Let it appear before your inner gaze. Watch him, trying to feel everything that comes from him. Allow the beast or bird to speak to you. Do not try to touch the animal, touch or caress it during the first "date". In the future, when you become friends, you will still have the opportunity to get to know him better.
Step 6
After the acquaintance has taken place, and sympathy has been established between you, thank your totem animal for responding to your call. Turn around and head back into the cave and walk right through it again, returning to your inner space at the start point. Take a few deep breaths and several rotations with your feet and hands. Open your eyes.
