Dear practitioners of the Dreaming Corner and the Stalking the Self Corner we want to invite you to participate in a new JOINT PROJECT!
Participate for FREE in the first collaboration between the 2 Corners! Join others worldwide to dream and stalk themes. Get RESULTS to change your state to a higher vibration.
Collaborative practice and the synergy of the Joining Forces Project.
For three weeks we will explore a myth together The Central Myth for the Shamans of Ancient Mexico
QUETZALCOATL
The Feathered Serpent
From art (dreaming) and functionality (stalking)
Not just as an idea for the imagination
Like something here in the world day by day
We begin by introducing the topic to our inner seer
Our compass.
- What does Quetzalcoatl mean to me, how can I bring this myth into my daily life?
- What does the feathered serpent mean in my life? How can I bring the attributes of the feathered serpent into my reality?
- And we are going to express what we discover, it can be a poem or a song or it can be music, a photo, a video, a painting, something through that spark that we manage to connect;
- And, at the same time, we are going to stalk what comes out, to recapitulate it, to write it down in our navigation notebooks.
We invite you for 3 weeks to explore
and when you have that spark and you stalk something with energy, you share it on WhatsApp!
TRY!

Intro to the Stalking-Recapitulation Corner
Opening note
In Joining Forces, following the context given by Carlos Castaneda, stalking refers to a state of active alertness and awareness, where the object that we are stalking is not a person or a place, it is not something in the physical world, but our fixed ideas and the narrative of our story.
In the shaman’s world, at the point before entering into a new place, one stands for a moment at the threshold, at the portal that divides the two worlds, this side and that side. In the portal rests a reclined Chacmool guardian. Chacmools are representations of shifts in consciousness from the attention of daily life, the first attention, to the attention of the left side, the second attention. In that moment, there at the crossing, a warrior casts his intent. He sends it to the other side like a beacon.
The term Joining Forces was coined with Brandon Scott, one of the other direct apprentices, and me in response to an invitation that the nagual himself presented to both of us.
My teacher would say that Brandon and I shared what he called ‘a big thick cord of energy’ that was very harmonious, and because of it there was no dissent between us. And this was such an energetic fact! He would invite us over together to his house at any hour of the night and we would do weird things with him, mystery things. Brandon and I share that. One time, he told us that we were going to do together a numerito of the Theatre of Infinity. We had to come up with content for it and run it by him. We were sweating bullets, but also we were so excited. We decided to meet at a café near the nagual’s house to brainstorm ideas.
During that time, Castaneda had paired Brandon and me for practicing a specific long and complicated set of passes together, sort of like a vocabulary of a conversation in the form of movement, an exchange of energy with one another practicing side-by-side or front-to-front. In the end, Brandon and I conceived of a numerito that included us demonstrating the idea of joining forces for an instant, shown energetically rather than syntactically. The nagual loved it. Two warrior-travelers joined in their pursuit for freedom, side-by-side joining forces for an instant that is our lifetime, before returning to their origin, the stars themselves.
That is the spirit of the warrior that was imprinted in Brandon and me, the same spirit that I believe was at the core of what Carlos Castaneda himself believed, and under such edifice is that we usher open this Practice Corner, which I have no doubt he would have had a ball with!
The practice of the passes and the recapitulation were the cornerstones that he taught us in order to increase our energy, so it is fitting that a practice space for stalking-recapitulation such as this one be formed within the context of the Joining Forces project, where practitioners from all groups can participate in a joint redeployment of energy through reallocation of the very energy we spend to uphold our fixed ideas and mis-perceptions.
In the spirit of joining forces this corner is dedicated to my endless friend and cohort Brandon Scott, a master recapitulator.
Joining Forces consists of a core of practice and several branches or ‘Corners” within the edifice of the legacy of the shamans of ancient Mexico.
Joining Forces is an online practice space, for the energy passes and premises of the warriors’ way, an oral tradition from the shamans of ancient Mexico, as taught by the nagual Carlos Castaneda, consisting of a core of worldwide Practice Groups and branches or ‘Corners” with specific aspects of the legacy.
The project Joining Forces was started in 2023 by Miles Reid, one of Carlos Castaneda’s remaining direct apprentices.
