Journey 4 - Meeting Eagle Claw

7/30: Took a journey to try to meet my Spirit Shaman Trainer, whose presence I've felt in the past few days. I went through the tunnel, but Crosses did not meet me until I got out into the open at the end of the tunnel. I knew this could happen so did not panic..the benefits of reading a lot first. At first, this area seemed forested, but it quickly turned into a desert, very bright but not hot. Crosses (my Snake guide) appeared suddenly by my side, then wrapped around me to give me oneness with all things/energies. We became one, and then zoomed across the desert to a very thickly dressed Native Chief. I got very close to his face and looked into his eyes, that were dark like opals..very similar to Crosses's eyes. His smile told me to look down and I saw a large Eagle Claw hanging on his chest. So that is his name, Eagle Claw. I then thanked him with offerings of tobacco, sage, sweet grass and a Sacred Pipe. I asked him to continue to teach me, guide me, and empower me. I was VERY grateful for quite a while, asking for help and guidance. Then, as I turned to leave, he "asked" me back (no words are spoken out loud) and embraced me. Suddenly, Crosses and I were floating in space. We went by stars of different colors and ended up over Earth. As I think back on this part, I seem to think I was not in what we call outer space, but more an Inner space, perhaps at the Atom Level. The “stars” were not brilliant, but tame, with mute surfaces. So that would imply that the Earth may be a single molecule in an other Existence, a teeny piece of something unseen and much bigger. If so, our destructive practices could result in this molecule being removed from the body as cancerous. Another reason to clean up our act. In fact, I was not allowed to go down to the Earth until I noticed a thick brown layer of air covering the surface. That is apparently all the damage we have done to Mother Earth. I prayed I could help alleviate that damage. We then sank quickly back into the tunnel (which is lined in tiny golden sparks of light and has a gorgeous smell of thousands of flowers and plants) and came back up into the entrance forest. I then walked back to my house and drummed myself back to this world. I forgot to thank Crosses as I left, but did so by going back to the entrance of the tunnel later and yelling it down. J
