CHAPTER 4
The SHADOW PEOPLE
SEEING IN THE DARK
Everyone
assumes that they know how to SEE. |
Those that have studied the images presented
probably have doubts about the accuracy of their past vision. Now maybe you're beginning to realize that shadows, rocks and bushes are not always just that. Sometimes they are human-manipulated visual pattern messages that some call "advisors" or "allies". |
The Shamanic purpose of these advisors is to teach us that we do not, and never have, SEEN what has always been under our noses. For instance, when looking at an object, have you ever looked at its shadow to tell yourself what the object is? Half the world is shadow. We neglect half our visual experience by seeing shadow as devoid of information.
Tribal people know shadows carry information which is hidden under our noses.
Tribal people know shadows carry information which is hidden under our noses.
Shadows are subject to natural laws, they must give valid descriptions of the objects that project them. Over and over, at the same time of day and year, using this knowledge, tribal people manipulate the edges of cliffs and stack boulders on the tops of high bald mountains to convey useful information to the passing traveler.
Some types of such information are: locations of water, food, lodging; directions to desert, mountain and ocean passes, and the location of spiritually transcending centers. |
Here are some very common visual patterns found all over the face of this globe. They have the same meanings in all races' oldest ideograms. |
