has anyone any info or a link to a good place to learn about different totams???

A friend of mine and I were talking about the different one that we thought each other were and I was wondering what a Lizard was.....I have a book on dreams that talked about meditating to realize and call an animal to be your totam and I found a Lizard spining in a circle on a black backround at the end of my meditaion and fell asleep right afterwords but didn't dream of one......then this past week my friend said the had been thinking of what I might have as a totam and said a Liazard????

I dream of insects alot too like Spiders and Dragon Flies???? what might these resemble???? anyone know where I could find info on this???

"Arm yourselves, and be ye men of valour, and be in readiness for the conflict; for it is better for us to perish in battle than to look upon the outrage of our nation and our altar." This call and spur to the faithful servants of Truth and Justice was quoted by Churchill in his first broadcast as Prime Minister to the British people on the BBC - May 19, 1940, London.

... and according to some Native American traditions, Lizard is the totem of Dreamers. What a coincidence!

thanks Pidaua,

I will look at it now.....what was the other message board you wrote on that had this info???

Ra.....an odd coincidence in deed....I found a book that had hundreds of totems and the Lizard is ment to resemble the Dream Gatekeeper....it also said I may call on my totem for guidence but not to depend on it entirely.....it find that very comforting....
