The Green Wolf


Be aware that this Tumblr frequently includes pictures of art made with animal remains, as well as rampant feminist opinions, corgis and bats, and lush landscapes.

Artist, author, (neo)shaman, and wannabe polymath living in the Pacific Northwe(s)t.

I discovered neopaganism in the mid-1990s, and shortly thereafter began my work with animal totems and neoshamanism. Over the years I've wandered through various paths, ranging from Wicca-flavored neopaganism to Chaos magic, but for the past few years I've been creating Therioshamanism, a post-industrial neo-shamanic path. I've also been creating various neopagan ritual tools and other sacred art from hides, bones, beads and other such things since about the same time. And I've written several nonfiction books on totemism, animal magic, and related topics. Currently working on "New Paths to Plant and Fungus Totems".

A few places to find me, as I'm all over the internet:

just-drop-it-in: zowieee: The largest drug cartel in the world… it’s amazing how people could mentally cure their disorders but it’s just so much easier to take a pill and put zero self power into it Are. You. Fucking. Kidding? I am assuming you mean mental disorders. Do you even fucking understand the basics of neurobiology and chemical imbalances in the neurotransmitters? Do you even fucking understand what a neurotransmitter IS? Do you understand the biological basis behind everything from depression to PTSD to schizophrenia? Apparently not, because if you did you’d understand that you CAN’T JUST THINK THESE THINGS AWAY.  And if you mean “mental power over physical ailments”, let’s see you think cancer away. Seriously. Are you just that fucking out of touch with how the human body WORKS?
