OThe horse has been pictured as an animal with supernatural power in many cultures. In the Native American tradition, Shamans fly other realms on mythical horses. Before horses were introduced by the Spanish, the life of the plains tribes was much more earth bound, having to carry all of their belongings from place to place. With the arrival of the horse, they were free to move and travel great distances with these beasts of burden. OPeople with Horse Medicine often carry the burdens of other people. They are strong and able to "bare up" under the strain of difficult circumstances. | |
