  For centuries, men and women have engaged in shapeshifting rituals - the powerful process of taking on the physical or psychological aspect of an animal to access its strength and perceptions. The imagery of shifting between human and nonhuman form has strongly pervaded folklore, myth, legend, and superstition. In chapters on the buffalo, cat, bird, bear, dragon, frog and more, this book explores the qualities associated with various shapeshifter forms. It illustrates how to use shapeshifting ritual to find direction, power and insight.
