Shamans.
"Look, he said he knows where all the fruit bearing trees in this forest are. Not a lot of them, all of them. He pointed out a squirrel the other day and told it he was glad to see that it made it through the winter. I don't know how he does it, but if he says we have to move because the squirrels are starting to move to new trees, who am I to argue? We move."
This feels spot on.
Add star constellations and telling immersive stories while guarding the fire at night to the list.
Don't forget putting entirely too much effort into building contraptions with sticks, clay, wood, rope, etc. Somebody had to invent the forge bellows.
This feels so true. Modern day version maybe. Always been drawn towards spiritual things and the amount of dark stuff I trigger in others is crazy. It's been a journey to understand and accept. But it's good doing some healing, for others and myself.
