Dreamtime
Original Post
In Australian Aboriginal mythology, the time when the animal ancestors created the world, both a long time ago, but also occurring in the present moment. The animals still are asleep under the earth dreaming up the world. In walking the land and singing an animal’s song (see Song Lines), an aborigine is invoking Dreamtime, linking past and present creation, and keeping the land and the spirits alive.
