Dear James

Aboriginal, celtic, tibetan, chinese & native American to name but a few have animal spiritualism so maybe either look at a particular spiritual wisdom that you are drawn to ie Native Americanism  or alternatively if you are drawn to a particular animal you could investigate the role they play  within each tradition.

Hello James,

it appears that my post from Nov 16 will never be published. So I’ll write it again.

Have you read any books written by Ted Andrews? I have a Czech translation “Lexikon zvířecí magie” but I am not sure which book it is in original English version. I can see that he wrote many of them and all seem to be very similar. This book is great and you can find there what you are looking for: a list of animals from insects, birds to big mammals, information about their lives, how you can track them, rituals, symbolism, totems and various execises how to connect with nature and animals. I really liked this book and I want to read it again soon.
