I'm part native and have always taken to the old myths and legends surrounded by spirituality I always found it so interesting. Here is a myth that I once heard about someone who was possessed by the spirit of the wolf therefore a werewolf.

 

"I am tribe's greatest teacher. The forerunner of new ideas who returns to the clan to teach and share medicine.  I have a strong sense of family, as well as a strong individualistic urge. . In other words, you can be part of society yet still embody individual dreams and ideas. The moon, which is feminine, is the power ally for me and holds the secrets of knowledge and wisdom. It is the sharing of great truths that the consciousness of humanity will attain new heights.  The gift of wisdom comes when you have walked enough pathways and found enough dead ends to truly know the forest! To live is to grow. Howl at the moon with me for the voice is the juice of the soul. I am a fierce protector and will protect pups that are not my own if a sister has been killed. Mother Earth's Red children learned from me in this regard and in the old tribes the children were raised by the entire tribe and any adult would have laid their life down for any child. Why? Because they were the future. I do not seperate from my family."
