Meeting a Spirit Guide at the Age of 11.

When I was 11 years old, I had an experience with one of my spiritual guides that would leave a lasting impact on me. It was a warm summer day, and my family and I were vacationing up north in New Hampshire. We had spent the day swimming in the crystal clear waters of our Family Camp and enjoying the beauty of nature.

As the sun began to set, and the air began to cool, I chose to venture out into the lake one last time before bedtime. I wanted to experience the stillness and silence of the water after all the noise and activity of the day. But as I waded out into the icy water, I felt something watching me.

Suddenly, I saw it - a majestic loon swimming towards me. It seemed to be staring right into my soul, and I felt a strange sense of connection to this beautiful bird. It swam closer, and I could see the detail of its feathers, the brightness of its eyes, and the strength of its wings. It seemed to be communicating with me in a way that I had never experienced before.

At that moment, I knew that this was not just any loon. It was one of my shaman guides, came to present itself to me in the form of this majestic creature. It was a powerful and profound experience that would stay with me for the rest of my life.

From that day on, I felt a deep connection to the water and all its creatures. I knew that I was a part of this natural world and that my journey in life was one of spiritual exploration and growth. This experience with my shaman guide in the form of a loon would lead me down a path of enlightenment and understanding, as I continued to grow and evolve as a human being.
