“Not everyone can do this, but certain shamans are able to transform themselves into any animal and often assume the body of a bird to take them wherever they want to travel. In my dream world I spend a lot of time up in the Arctic, flying, being a birdman, flying underneath the ice, traveling through the ground like a shaman.”
