From the Garden of Elspethe
to the
Forest Of Wolves

On the Day you were born, you cried, and the world rejoiced.
Live your life, so that on the day you die, the world will cry and you will rejoice.
Native American Proverb

"Feared and hated by men the world over, the mighty wolf has been plauged by all forms of evil stories,myths and legends. Hunted, trapped and killed to the point of extinction, many of these majestic animals are gone forever---their breeds and blood lines never to be seen again.

In spite of the many horror stories of wolves hunting,
tracking and killing humans, no such event has ever been confirmed.
Their eerie and lonely howl, which can make the blood run cold, is merely their form of communication. Each howl, with its tone, depth, and frequency carries a different message to the pack, or to the partner who is out of sight.
They're merely "talking".

  • If You Have Wolf Medicine You are fiercely loyal---to friends, family, ideals and principles.

  • There is no compromise for you.

  • You are very territorial.

  • You protect all that is yours and your family's at any expense.

  • You are fearless in your protection, but not reckless.

  • You plan your strategy carefully, and wait
    for the opportune moment for most powerful effect.

  • You have a strong family structure. There is no doubt who the elders, patriarchs and parents are, or about their roles in family structure. Disobedience, selfishness, and unruly behavior is not tolerated as there are strong boundaries for the young. They are taught well and carefully so that they may assume leadership roles in their own family structures.

  • You have an unrelenting sense of adventure.

  • You love to explore new things, to stretch out for new horizons.

  • You have a thirst for knowledge and for learning new things.

  • You are eager to share these things, which makes you a natural teacher.

  • Your adventures may take you away from home and family, but it is important that you have this base of security to return to.

  • You have an unrelenting need to be alone.
    You are so busy being the protector, the provider, the teacher, and the trailblazer, that it's very easy for you to become exhausted and burned out. In order to re-charge your spirit, and keep your balance, it is critical that you have time to be alone with your thoughts and your own sense of self. This is one side of your nature that must not be overlooked. Even if you lock yourself in the bathroom for 15 minutes a day, the time must be honored if you are to have value to those you care for.

Wolf is power. Wolf is honor.
Wolf is integrity.

Brother Wolf;
Sister Wolf
---I honor you.
