THE ELK:


To native Americans an elk tooth represented long life.
In ancient sites in Lithuania and Northwestern Russia, staffs have been discovered with either elk doe heads or elk antlers on them. Similar staffs have been found among ancient grave goods.
To both Native Americans and Siberian people, the elk symbolizes the strength of the warrior, supernatural power, and, strangely enough, the whirlwind.



Magickal Attributes

Stamina, strength, speed, sensual passion.
Like the elk herds, that for most of the year stay with their own sex, honor those of your gender.
Developing strength and stamina to get a job done.
Learning to pace yourself instead of pushing too hard and losing energy in a short time.



Chant

Majestic forest king with antlers high,
Mighty strength belongs to you.
Fill my mind with common sense
To do the things that I must do.
Lead me in paths of quiet calm
Where I connect with other minds,
Whose souls, like mine, yearn for the Truth
And worship higher powers divine.
Where paths to spirit are unique
To every woman and each man,
And all respect each person's way
Of following an unvoiced plan.
