How to Go on Your Own Vision Quest
When you are doing a vision quest in nature, start to write about yourself as how you have always wanted to be seen. Create a personal prayer, mantra or vow honoring yourself as this archetype. Creating a symbolic ritual that commemorates the quest and which brings meaning to this spiritual part of yourself can be a really efficient way of reinforcing your commitment to your spiritual vision. Discover an object that reflects the heroic inventive intention of one’s mythic archetype. Develop an alter- a sacred shrine exactly where you are able to raise your consciousness in a place of worship and surrender. This sacred space can offer you the experience of connecting to that part of yourself which inspires creation. Once we permit ourselves to connect from a place of deep humility then our sense of intrinsic purpose is felt. This sense of purpose is what most participants on a vision quest start to report.
