Native American walking sticks are indeed a thing. Some may be more authentic than others. I don’t know if any of them are as powerful as Gandalf’s staff, however,

to ask for a dream with your stick and that it in the dream you are shown its’ true power…

Well I can go there now in my awake dreaming. Since I am Fenwizard I can see my dream Wizard’s staff. And since I am a healer it is a staff of healing, not a power weapon.

Native American staffs, including eagle staffs and walking staffs, hold significant cultural and ceremonial meaning, representing leadership, honor, and connection to the land and spirit, and are often used in ceremonies and as symbols of tribal identity.
Here’s a more detailed look at their history and significance:
Types of Native American Staffs:
- Eagle Staffs:
These are unique, sacred symbols representing traditional Indigenous culture and clans, often used in ceremonies and celebratory functions, much like a nation’s flag.
-
They feature at least one eagle feather and other adornments, and are usually carried and cared for by veterans, as carrying a staff is seen as a great honor.
-
Eagle staffs represent the stature and honor of a particular tribe or tribes, and are wrapped in otter or buffalo skin, with eagle feathers indicating the Akicita honor of that tribe.
-
For First Nations people, the Eagle Staff is the sacred first flag of Turtle Island, holding many different teachings and representing the importance of honoring the relationship and spiritual connection to the land.
-
The staff reflects the wisdom, strength, and honor of those that carry it in representation of Nations across Turtle Island.
-
Walking Staffs:
These were practical tools for travel, providing balance in rough terrain and when crossing rivers.
- The earliest types were simply sturdy rods of wood.
- Some American Indians carried a staff called a “coup stick” decorated with carvings and feathers to celebrate victories in battle.
Significance and Use:
- Leadership and Representation:
Staffs, especially eagle staffs, are symbols of leadership and tribal representation, often carried by chiefs or tribal leaders.
- Ceremonial and Spiritual Purposes:
They are used in ceremonies, celebrations, and other important events to honor the land, ancestors, and spiritual beliefs.
- Honoring Veterans:
Eagle staffs are often carried by veterans, recognizing their service and valor.
- Cultural Identity:
Staffs are a tangible representation of Native American culture and heritage, passed down through generations.
- Symbol of Unity:
When tribes meet, they bring their staffs to show the representation of their tribe or warrior society, symbolizing unity and connection."

“The eagle staff was the first flags of these lands; long before the colonists came, Native American tribes were carrying eagle staffs to represent their tribes, individual families, and various other groups. Eagle staffs can come in many shapes and sizes, but they always feature at least one eagle feather along with their other adornments. These staffs are usually cared for and carried by a veteran, as carrying a staff is seen as a great honor.”

With a full heart, rejoice and fun?
Perhaps something creative related to how you can bring more of this awareness into the incredible connection you have to the land and spirit. (yesterday I saw two huge eagles, one of them passed on top of my car… felt your Presence…)
Learned yesterday with Tulku Lobsang that when we say 21 times that we will dream lucid, we can hold our breath in each time and say it inside while holding our breath… tried it tonight, did not dream lucid, but predicted the weather and received a message from you - an envelope with a high way on both ways! it also had an extra little envelope with an extra message. did not see what was inside, but the envelope was awesome!
so beautiful 
loved this video 
it’s connected with the dream I had with you tonight - the path was straight!

Very cool, I think that may have been Precognitive my Heart. I have been meaning to do a road trip and go and visit some baby Eagles for some time now. Will meditate on the other possible interpretations of this dream

Also, a heads up about eagle feathers. In the U.S. it’s illegal for non-Natives to possess eagle feathers or for eagle feathers to be sold to non-Natives. (although if I happened to come across such a gift in nature, I would probably accept the gift, although technically I would be breaking the law to take it).

Not sure what the plant they ingested during the hunt was, most likely a stimulant?

It’s a ritualistic practice designed for therapeutic healing and spiritual connection, often involving a dome-shaped structure, heated volcanic stones, and the release of steam infused with medicinal herbs.

- Structure:
Temazcals are typically dome-shaped structures made of stone, mud, or cement, representing the womb of Mother Earth.
- Ceremony:
The ceremony involves sitting within the temazcal, heated by volcanic stones, and inhaling the steam released by pouring water over them.
- Therapeutic Benefits:
Temazcal is believed to offer various physical and mental benefits, including detoxification, improved blood circulation, and stress relief.
- Spiritual Connection:
The ritual often incorporates elements of shamanism, music, and prayer, creating a space for spiritual healing and connection.

Temazcal has a long history in Mesoamerican cultures, with rituals performed for various purposes, including healing, childbirth, and purification."
