I had another brush with the elemental energies last night - this time they took the shape of wolves, which has happened before.
As before, one of them was pushing his luck, trying to bite my hand as i was attempting to be friendly and stroke his fur.
Something new was apparent this time tho - they had a keeper. A guide of sorts, perhaps/more likely, a higher aspect of myself, who was literally like a zookeeper, in charge of them. I had to ask for his assistance, when the most aggressive one wouldn't let go of my hand.
i was amazed by the intelligence in their eyes. I woke thinking "wolves are far more intelligent than household dogs!"
