Truth be told I've never had the bald eagle show up so vividly before. You had the kangaroo and cougar show up the most, and I had the kangaroo and red panda show up and say thank-you yesterday for telling you they were your totems.

A couple people's totems have done that.. Snarly's octopus is the other that I can remember.

And red pandas are so adorable it hurts..

For me it's a clairvoyance thing. I make a prayer with gratitude and ask for angelic assistance in seeing the person's totems with accuracy on behalf of the individual. I usually make a new grounding cord and do some basic energy cleaning for psychic contaminants and set a clear intention. I then focus getting an energetic connection to the person using a visualization with my left hand putting it on their right forearm (though I really don't know that I need to do that and don't always) and I can sometimes see the psychic bands. I do it with the intent to only see their totems so not much else comes up. While trying to see more clearly clairvoyantly I breathe deeply and focus on the breath, sometimes counting them. Then information comes in like a shamanic journey where I'll see animals and landscapes. Usually it takes a few minutes with phenacite or moldavite held in my left hand before they come in really vividly, but sometimes they'll still be fuzzy/blurry depending. Coffee certainly doesn't help in that department. After I've gotten enough I say thank-you again and open my eyes and put the phenacite away. If it were amethyst I'd have to clear it before as well and recharge them. I can do them without stones, it just helps see totems I wouldn't otherwise get. I'd also cut all cords and then try to clean out any psychic energies that were left on either party and reground.

When my clairvoyance is really good I can see words automatically with my eyes shut or I've gotten cinematic past life recall before after being told to do a series of seemingly bizarre things (go for a walk, go here etc along with a long tunneling episode which always deepens my clairvoyance).

If you see colors that change when you close your eyes or even patterns you are likely somewhat clairvoyant. You just need an aid or focus or some other thing to pull you forward so that you can get visions or see animals/people. Sometimes when I shut my eyes I see the contents of my room from a 4d scale more clearly. I can see etheric rings my guides have put on my fingers or angels or totems around me.

Also, if you have an air sun you already have a butterfly totem by virtue of that being your clan totem. If you have an earth sun that would be a turtle or frog for water etc. You can see the month totem here.. http://www.xtraastrology.com/native_american_astrology/native_american_totems.html

That was probably too much information

I'm not 100% on the same page as this guy, but he has some very good resources and support, and he has a very active kundalini mailing list (get a new e-mail account if you join it). The safeties page is here http://www.kundaliniawakeningsystems1.com/the-safeties.html

Then there are many free kundalini books here.. http://www.kundaliniawakeningsystems1.com/downloads.html

And the Emergency protocols..
He used to recommend not meditating or praying there. All forms of concentration, stress, meditaiton can add to kundalini. This is the reason that while I used to read 5-6 books at a time, now I can't even read one despite how desperately I want to get at the material. I am told specifically not to read at this time in my clairvoyance as well. I've read in many places that something about coffee in kundalini can make you paranoid and will make your adrenal glands go haywire (you'll be panicky). http://www.kundaliniawakeningsystems1.com/emergency-protocols.html

I'd be reticent to talk to anyone in the health care field about kundalini, but if it does come up, Carl Jung was obsessed about kundalini and if they look into his writings hopefully they won't want to medicate you right off the bat. There is also the work of Hiroshi Motoyama who supposedly has proof that kundalini is real along with the chakras and has been doing work in Japan as a professor there since the 60's with some of his biophysics diagnostic equipment being used to diagnose illness in Japanese hospitals based of the relative activity of the Ida and Pingala (the two curvy things on either side of the shushumna in the caduceus staff of hermes). He even has an extension of his university work in California with degrees being offered based on these fields. He has written several books and received accolades from places like Duke etc stretching back into the 70's, and has himself gone through a kundalini episode. You can interlibrary loan anything to get the books in case you're not familiar with the system. The university.. https://www.cihs.edu/cihs/Dr_Motoyama_bio.htm

and one of his more recent books http://www.amazon.com/Theories-Chakras-Insights-Subtle-Ene rgy/dp/8178220237/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1308002365&sr=8-3

There's also this if you're ever in the unfortunate position to have kundalini psychosis. This guy does work with spiral dynamics and spiritual emergencies in the expansion of consciousness with bipolar or psychotic crisises. Not saying yours is anything like that, but his work is very enlightening although he never really says kundalini is at the heart of all spiritual emergencies as many others will say. http://www.youtube.com/user/bipolarorwakingup#p/u/3/v1Cwpx8inKY

I am most interested in how to work with/to develop any latent psychic talent with proper caution.

I'll see if I can wane myself from the morning coffee, but stopping martial arts is a no go. Body made it known in no uncertain terms that choclate and processed food is not even to be looked at but all in all, it's really mild.

When I started I kind of had the mindset that clairvoyance was my birthright (kundalini is funny like that) and the only reason I didn't have it was because of society and all these bs doubts or psychological issues in my head about what was normal. If Doreen Virtue could see angels and block it out, then I could too. I read Debra Katz books although I didn't quite stick to her entire formula, I still felt it helped greatly. There is also Doreen Virtue's book which talks about working with angels to develop clairvoyance/clairsentience etc and I heartily recommend it. Both address the psychological blocks and some basic visualizations. If I were on a budget I'd get Doreen Virtue's book and the smallest moldavite or phenacite I could find with some grounding stone. If I were ever going to pick up giving psychic readings, I would pick Debra Katz's book first.

http://www.amazon.com/You-Are-Psychic-Clairvoyant-Reading/dp/0 738705926/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1308069874&sr=8-4
http://www.amazon.com/Divine-Guidance-Dialogue- Guardian-Angels/dp/1580630898/ref=sr_1_44?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1308070292&sr=1-44

Reiki attunements will also make you more sensitive, but I don't know about the clairvoyance bit. There are reiki attunements specifically for developing clairvoyance and clairaudience. There is a book or dvd for it..

http://www.amazon.com/Reiki-Psychic-Attunement-Expand-Abilities/dp/B0002606BK/ref= pd_sim_b_4

And free reiki attunements and workbooks are available here http://www.theholisticcare.com/attunement%20request.htm

Just make sure you don't take too much too fast. Reiki attunements cause healing and healing + kundalini causes more kundalini. When in doubt take things slowly and safely. When you're kundalini is revved up and you're panicky and fearful and negative stuff starts messing with you you can't always turn off the clairvoyance. If you're on the kundalini journey you'll most likely get it. Mine came from a combination of different places.

Too much too fast ... I am not pushing the issue, plenty of other things to do during the day.

rabbit
The rabbit totem is an instrument of magic and good luck. Her gifts are spontaneity, alacrity and agility. Likewise, her path guides us to go forward with positive anticipation, for rabbit brings success to all endeavors. Rabbit is also a symbol of reproduction and abundance. The lesson is to create joy and faithfulness within our friendships. Finally, rabbit teaches us to overcome our fears as we take a conscious leap into new territory.

How many totems does a person have on average?

How do you know if it's a permanent totem or just a messenger?

I seem to keep on "stumbling" upon things that are somehow connected to female divinities or fertility or femminine whatever, like the duck story or a random person giving me a dove figurine, last night before sleep a frog popped up in my head.

And lastly, could you always only see your own totems, or could you maybe have contact also to the people close to you? That is, if you aren't specifically asking to identifying them.

I've never tried to determine how long the totems will stay. I always kind of figured they'd leave when they were done. How many totems you have will depend on the person. Some shaman will have only 30 while others may have over a hundred. Normal people won't likely have as many as a hundred but it is theoretically possible. Totems get bored and leave or move on, kind of like some friendships are temporary while others are for life. Part of a shaman's job is to keep them staying around. I seem to recall a site saying the average person will have between 15-30 at a given time.

You're probably at a level where you can start getting this information yourself. I could have asked for these readings, but getting technical specifics is more time consuming and makes the format much more complex when I'm ungrounded and trying to remember details. With my clairvoyance I've just worked out numbers to mean yes and no when I start asking questions though sometimes I can see the words written out and have a pseudo-conversation based on it. Some people may just know. Without knowing you'd have to ask.

Your kundalini is going to make your synchronicities and contact with the spiritual much more frequent, and I do think totems have an affinity for people going through the throes of kundalini.

And lastly, I don't see totems for other people unless I've enquired into them. I'd imagine there's a possibility of seeing totems for others under the right pretext, but for the most part, if a totem shows itself to you in an unusual circumstance it's yours.

The female aspect, shakti, is said to be the more creative energy.

Oh, also, I'm a little out of it. I hope that all came out right

posted June 20, 2011 02:46 PM            

It's funny, you talk about synchronicity and look at the timestamp of your post

And yes, it came out alright, I just didn't get what info I can get myself?

posted June 20, 2011 04:10 PM            

Saying you could get this stuff yourself, like what kind of totem role it is serving etc. Depending on how bad your kundalini is and how much of your energy system you've cleaned you're going to be extremely psychically sensitive. If you mess with phenacite I wouldn't be at all shocked if you got a vision. I'd be more surprised if you didn't get any more connections with that realm.

I am pondering to stop listening to the radio, i-pod for awhile cause songs get stuck in my head so easily and it's a tremendous distraction as well.

So far I haven't been able to pick up the phenacite, the shop selling gems I was in at thursday didn't have any. Picked up some other gems, shiny shiny, that malachite was whispering "buy me, buy me" from the moment it saw me entering the shop
