As Ra says, it is very unlikely that you will integrate or even notice how much catalyst is always bombarding your senses. I, too, have a tendency to look for the meaning in every single stitch of information which comes my way. You might want to look into Native American totem traditions to get more info on the animal archetypes. I found the Medicine Cards deck and accompanying book very helpful, though it is geared toward beginners.
