(no subject)

I was bugged, yesterday, because nobody visits me in my dreams any more. How can you learn from your totems, or even know who they are, if nobody ever drops by? So as I lay down to sleep I sent out a little suggestion that anybody who had anything to say to me was welcome to say it.

I dreamed I went to the back yard looking for something, but didn't find it. Then, at the back door, I looked up and realized a very dark and angry-looking white pine had grown in the marsh behind the house. It had grown thirty feet straight up, then bent over at right angles until it was right over the house, and my head, and then gone straight up again. The only reason it hadn't smashed the house was the other trees in the yard had interlaced their branches to hold it up.

"Hmm, that could be dangerous," I thought calmly. "I'm going to have to do something about that."

So.. just another weird dream. Or perhaps my totem animal is, in fact, a tree. Who doesn't like me. :)

Or the ten or twenty around the house who were protecting me?

I wonder what a tree would want to say to any of us? Oh well. Make of it what you will. I think it's interesting, and fun, in a slightly spooky way.
