Wildlife

    We have lost touch with nature’s longings, fallen out of sync with her moods and become deaf to her music. Wildlife can not only help us to re-establish our resonance with nature, but also inspire us in a highly personal and individual way. All the ancient tribes of the world knew the secret power of animal totems. Animals were their teachers, their guardians. So much so that the line between animal and human was not sharply drawn like it is today, but blurred, even erasable. Many believed that they would be reincarnated as their totem, that their shamans had the mystical gift of shapeshifting – changing from human into animal, and back again.
