:) Well, create it then.. and sign me up.
BTW.. Do you get a clear answer about whether someone is a Shaman,
Shaman in training, or on some other path?

Maybe.. but I think for us both, it was a life path chosen before birth.

ah so.. makes sense.. I do not always like what I see, either. The
death premonitions are the hardest to handle.

yeah, I do.. I also get entities showing up looking kind of "disney."
Not scary at all. Cute! Even the warty ones.

Well, Chac had my whole lifetime experience of hiding in books, to draw

and did not come up for air for about 20 years.. thousands and thousands of
stories in my head..
