SHAMANS, AVATARS, AND PAINTED CAVES
Little Bear, a beautiful and gifted cave artist, descends into the depths of the Great Cave, guided by the most powerful shaman of her tribe, the People of the Bear Mother. There, she is to paint a new image portraying her people's most significant myth. But before she may enter the deepest chambers of the awesome cave, she must be initiated as a shaman herself. In spite of her fear of the old shaman, her reluctance to take the shaman's path, and her mother's strong opposition, Little Bear agrees to accept this life-altering invitation to embark on her soul's great hero adventure. How will this journey into the depths of her own psyche transform her life among the People? How will this adventure change all the subsequent lifetimes this soul's avatars will experience? And what is the meaning of Little Bear's mysterious lion eye?
To enrich these stories of past lives, which are coming through as a result of a recent creative opening, Austin draws on a lifetime of study of actual archaeological finds, specifically those of the oldest artwork in the world, the paintings of the 35,000-year-old Chauvet Cave in southern France. The meaning of this cave art is revealed through the story of Little Bear, as are universal human truths that have resonance and meaning for all of us today.
