[Dialogue] What about Florida

[LAURELCG at aol.com]

Henry Wesselman, Ph.D. in anthropology, wrote a book in 1995 along the lines 
of Carlos Castaneda, titled SPIRITWALKER.  Living in Hawaii, he had a series 
of dreams set 5000 years in the future.  He teaches anthropology at American 
River and Sierra College near Sacramento and in Hawaii, where he has a farm.  
The book is fascinating, and probably prophetic.
 
In the dreams, the great central valley of California is an inland sea.  The 
coastline has moved to the upper parts of the present coast range of 
mountains.  Hawaii has disappeared completely, as has civilization as we know it.  The 
surviving humans live and work with stone age tools, other than the metal they 
harvest from the ruins of cities when they find them.  They have no way of 
mining.

Hank Wesselman has made an avocation of shamanism since having these dreams.  
Fred and I attended one of his workshops sponsored by the Institute of Noetic 
Science.  He is very skilled as a shaman.  He decided this, not preaching 
apocalypse, was the best way to respond to his "revelation."

The book is fascinating, as is the sequel, written more recently, MEDICINE 
MAKER.
