July 18, 2017: This trip took place between June 25th through July 11. A shamanic journey. I have just begun to process its many ramifications in my life.

Siberia/Mongolia: Starting Over with J.K. (Lilith) Canepa
Siberia/Mongolia: Original intention manifested
Mongolia — and yurt life: Personal reflections from 1987
We witness the Ceremony of Mare’s Milk early on in our journey — and then finally, on our last evening together, drink some!

Siberia/Mongolia, plus New York/InDiana: My emerging God intoxication, part 2
Siberia/Mongolia Interlude: Between the first 12 posts and the final 3 posts
