Hello and welcome to this insight timer recording to connect with your spirit animal.
Within this recording I'm going to guide you on a shamanic journey to connect with your spirit animal so that you can connect with the animal itself and embrace its medicine so it can support you on your journey as you awaken to who you are.
Now within this guided shamanic journey I'm going to be sharing with you my process that I have learned within my shamanic teachings to connect with your spirit animal where I will be guiding you into the lower worlds to assist you with connecting to your spirit animal and as I've already mentioned connecting with its medicine.
Before we go on this beautiful shamanic journey let me share with you the process.
So before we begin what I'd like for you to do is imagine or take yourself to a place where there is a hole in the earth.
This may be a cave that goes deep into mother earth,
It could be a well or it could be something slightly different but this is a place where you can journey to the lower world in order to connect with your spirit animal.
So when I guide you on this journey what I'd like for you to do is first find this hole or this cavern in which you could dive deeply into that hole and slowly enter the lower world so that you can connect with your spirit animal and as I've already mentioned again embrace its medicine.
When you get to the lower world you may notice numerous creatures,
Allow yourself to connect with each and every one of them.
If however there are dark creatures allow yourself to ignore them and disconnect from them as this provides you with protection as you journey into the lower worlds.
Now connecting with your spirit animal is quite simple,
It's important to allow yourself to be guided by spirit and guided by your soul.
So as you walk through the lower world allow yourself to connect with each and every animal as I've mentioned and in order for you to notice which animal is your specific spirit animal you want to go up to them and simply ask them are you my spirit animal.
Now some may say yes others will say no but it's also important to note that you have to receive three signs or signals to confirm that they are your spirit animal.
For example I have the spirit animal of the bear supporting me on my journey.
When I first did my shamanic journey to connect with my spirit animal I first of all noticed the bear and went up to it and asked are you my spirit animal at which he replied yes and as I journeyed further into the lower world I then noticed footsteps of the bear so that was my second sign the spirit animal was my specific spirit animal to guide me on my journey and then thirdly I saw the bear playing in the water so that was my clear sign that the spirit animal that the spirit animal the bear was my spirit animal.
Now once you've connected with your spirit animal it's important to then build on that connection now you do this quite simply by asking the spirit animal what medicine it brings you and how it can support you your spiritual journey.
Now once you've received that information allow yourself to connect and journey with that and receive that beautiful medicine at which it brings you until you come to the end of this lower world journey and then you can connect with your spirit animal at any time.
Now once you've come to the end of your lower world journey I'm going to be guiding you out of the lower world and back on to this earthly plane.
Before you journey back into this current earthly plane you may want to ask your spirit animal if it wants to come back with you or instead support you from the spirit from the spirit world.
If they want to come back with you allow yourself to be guided back to that portal in the earth as you come back to this earthly plane.
To guide you back I will be drumming quite quickly until you reach the portal and then once there I will do four loud beats to assist you with reconnecting to this earthly plane.
So let me now guide you on this lower world journey to connect with your spirit animal.
To begin this shamanic journey I'd like you to take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth,
In through your mouth,
In through your nose and out through your mouth.
One final time,
In through your nose and out through your mouth.
Allow yourself to relax each and every muscle and fibre in your body as I guide you on this shamanic journey to connect with the lower world and to your spirit animal.
And I'm going to begin by playing the shamanic drum.
What I'd like for you to do is connect with the heartbeat of the drum as you connect with the heartbeat of yourself.
As you begin connecting with your mind,
Your body and your soul.
Keep focusing on your breathing,
Breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth,
In through your nose and out through your mouth.
And now that you've become in sync with the drum I would like you now to imagine to imagine walking in nature.
Imagine coming across that portal in the earth.
It's either a cave,
A well or maybe a chasm in the earth which will assist you with journeying to the lower world.
As you get to that portal,
Allow yourself to float down into that portal.
As you float further down,
Deeper down,
Allow yourself to be transformed and journeyed to the lower world.
Take your time to connect with the lower world as you journey down there and connect with your soul.
Keep focusing on your breathing as you breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth.
Once you're down there,
Allow yourself to ground and connect with yourself.
Become grounded and connected as this will provide you with protection and allow yourself to journey through this lower world as you connect with your spirit animal.
As I've mentioned before,
Notice the three signs to connect with your spirit animal and then allow yourself to connect with the beautiful medicine at which it's providing you spiritual journey.
Allow yourself to journey now into the lower world,
Connect with that beautiful and majestic animal to guide you on your journey.
Now that we are coming towards the end of this journey,
I'd like for you to ask your spirit animal if it would like to return with you and if the answer is yes,
Then allow yourself and your spirit animal to journey back to the earthly plane to again support you on your journey.
So now let's take this journey back home.
So now that you've come back to this earthly plane,
Allow yourself to reconnect with your spirit animal and notice what medicine it brings you to support you on your spiritual journey.
Note that your spirit animal is there all the time and you can call upon it when you need assistance and support on your journey.
I hope you've found this guided shamanic journey to be valuable and useful.
