Thanks ET for the link will have to check that out. Agreed more in the realm of tapping into the more basic primal instinct raw urges rather than just being as being an animal in play per say. Thoughts after thinking about this a bit were for example if your primal nature was that of a Dominant such as a lion would it be more common to have poly tendencies than a female sub feline or even expansion to that thought process a switch.
Primal is getting out of your head... all the stuff that has been hammered in there. Think of it as an orgasmic or tantric moment; you are married to the visceral sensation, how the energy of him/her moves through you, the ebb and flow of it, non-analytical, no "ooh that feels good" but complete surrender to the moment, the feeling, the sensation.
When you begin to explore Primal, you begin from a point of Dominance or submission, but over time, once trust and awareness is established, the Dominant becomes the Predator, taking what he/she wants and needs, and the submissive becomes prey. Not the helpless weak victim, but the object of that Predators desire. Eventually you will succumb to the Predators will, but delicious prey never surrenders, they merely succumb once overwhelmed by the Dominance the Predator is exuding. Prey can heighten the exhilaration through resistance, the Predator wants to earn his/her prize. We are hunters, not scavengers. We do not feed our inner beast with carrion, we want fresh meat from a thrilling hunt.
"Primal" is/can be diluted through a lot of fantasy ideals... you'll see a lot of "FluffyDragonUnicornKitten" D's and s's that are grabbing a label and using it wrong. When you truly explore Primal you have to peel away the layers of civility and get to the "Animal" or "Lizard Brain" side of yourself, the Man/Woman of action and not calculation. Over time you may explore deeper connections to your Primal self and once you transcend that "civil" conscious, you may begin to feel kinship to a particular animal or animals. We are not very far removed from animals, after all. We like to think we are, we like to think we are the top of the food chain, but we get powerful doses of reality from time to time.
I couldn't say specifically that the Totem Primal Animal reflects relationship dynamics/proclivities, for me, My connection is with the wolf, the wolf mates for life, I want nothing more than to mate with My girl for life, and the girl that she chooses as well. That said, the monogamous ideal of the wolf does not reflect in me, but the need to mate for the rest of my life certainly does.
Hoped this helped ;)
