How to Find Your Power Animal
Power animals are spirits that can give you protection and guidance. The concept of power animals is centered around the Red Indian philosophy, which places high importance on the spiritual aspect of life. However, you must remember that in order to connect with your power animals, you do not have to be a Red Indian shaman.

1
Shamanic journeying
The first step towards finding your power animal is familiarize with the concept of shamanic journeying. When someone shifts their consciousness to access information in an extra-ordinary state of reality, a shamanic journey takes place. You can go into a shamanic trance through music with a repetitive percussion pattern like rattling or drumming. Keep in mind that you do not have to use drugs for this purpose. Just buy or download shamanic music or attend a shamanic class. -

Find a comfortable position to relax
You should find a comfortable position to relax to start your shamanic journey. You can have pillows and blankets to feel comfortable. Some people feel comfortable while lying on the bed; whereas, others prefer sitting. The position is totally your choice. -
3
Close your eyes
You should now close your eyes, breathe deeper and concentrate on the drumming music. Imagine that you are in a place in nature that is familiar to you. Move in that area and look for an opening that may take you to the lower shamanic world. This opening or the hole does not have to be large as you are not there physically. Step into that tunnel or portal. -

Emerge from the tunnel
You should now emerge from that tunnel. You will be witnessing a beautiful natural area. Visit that place and feel free to move around. Observe everything closely. If you see a creature that shows itself to you thrice in different positions or different places, that would be your power animal. You may try to talk to that animal. Do not hesitate to communicate with it. -

Say goodbye
You may say goodbye to your power animal once you get the ending signal on the music player.
