I have more info on this and I would love to hear more from others, as well.

I have yet another student with this quandary. I offered to journey for her to get some hints on how to journey when she feels things in her body but doesn't know what they mean. She said it was totally fine to post the results, here, as they may help other people.

Here is my journey:

~~~~~~~~~
I met a guardian/teacher who was standing barefoot on the land.

She said, "Tell her to feel it through the bottom of her feet. You can always know where you are by how the ground feels."
Then the message changed to, "You whole body is your foot. The ground from different landscapes feel differently. They have their own energy and evoke different emotions for people." So there is emotional, physical and energetic.

Then there was a statement that this is an entirely different language that has to be learned, along with several other suggestions:
- to explore different parts of one's own body to find out what information/associations reside there. This way, when energy pours into that part of your body, you will know what that means in your own journeying language.
- to ask lots of questions just for the purpose of noting the responses that come, as a way to learn this new language.

Then I asked for her to SHOW me, because I am not savvy in this kind of journeying. I immediately felt a rush of energies in my body. I was told that HOW they interact is very important to the message being sought, just like when I read tarot cards. (I do tarot with a deck that does not have pictorial images but rather more abstract paintings. Because of this, my readings focus on the root energies of a situation and how they interact with each other - and what other energies get created from those interactions. I always tell people it is a map of the energies of one's life.) So said not only the language of garnering information is new but of course, the language of the message I would give to someone I am journeying for would be different as well.

The last thing that happened was that I felt like a tree in bliss from the rich energy of earth at my roots, the delicious energy of rain on my body and the sweet feeding energy of the sun at my top. I had one hand held down and one held up.The one held up was glowing with the sun energy. I felt as if this state was not only a gift but that a gift could be given with my hand. There are lots of interpretations I could make for that but I will leave the journey pure and say that I was not given any direct meaning for that. It was beautiful and felt wonderfully good. The tree image was also probably personal to me because my spiritual world is deeply steeped in trees.

I look forward to hearing more from people! I think this is a vital area where we can help each other grow. As a teacher, I feel it is important for me to understand these ways so I am going to continue to ask my spirit teachers to give me more of these experiences.
