“Kundalina”, as you know her, came to me first on a branch of a walking tree in a lucid dream. She had golden blond hair and was wearing a flowing pink gown. She was illumined and very youthful and vibrant. The tree walked up to me and let Kundulina down to stand directly in front of me. I sheepishly bent forward and kissed her wondering if that was appropriate. She kept a warm smile on her face.
I knew that she was a real spirit.
The second time she came to me was in another lucid dream in a night after dancing in the arbor at Sundance in Montana. I and a friend were there to support a few mutual friends in their Sundance.
That day I danced for hours to give my friends strength to endure the four days of ceremony. As I danced to the rhythmic drumming, singing and eagle bone whistling, I gazed up at the top of the center pole (tree) and saw and felt the strong Buffalo Spirit. I danced with the Buffalo and gave all the strength I felt to the friends behind the greenery covered corridor that ran along the outer wall of the circular arbor.
In the afternoon I was asked to sit in front of the big tipi to guard the gifts that were inside. After some time my friend Dan and a man we had met the day before stopped by to talk. While talking a butterfly fluttered around us and our new friend noticed and put his finger out to entice it to land. “Show me the magic”, he said. We continued to talk and a few minutes later the magic hopeful man pointed at my left hand. The butterfly had found a brief home on my finger.
That night as I slept in our tent on the Sundance grounds Kundalina once again came to me in my dreamtime. She seemed to descend from above and took my left hand with her left hand and turned my palm upward. My palm was covered with a black ink drawing I had done. She took her right index finger and traced every line of the drawing with red lines that appeared to be directly on top of my lines but in another dimension.
In the dream I ran to one of my Sundancing friends and told her that I had just witnessed an angel.
