The Personal Totem Pole was published in German as Indianische Chakra-Heilen, Verlag Peter Erd, 1991.
This is the story of the discovery of the chakra power animals and their remarkable effects in psychotherapy and personal growth.
The chakra power animals are the basis for the therapeutic model known as the Personal Totem Pole Process©. The PTPP© is an
internationally acclaimed discipline, with practitioners worldwide. It is a unique blend of the theory of active imagination which was
developed by Dr. C. G. Jung, the Eastern theoretical orientation which understands the human being as a system of interrelated
energies or chakras, and the Native American practice of speaking to and learning from the animals. The PTPP© has had
applications in areas other than Psychotherapy. It has been used on a personal basis by individuals interested in their own growth
and healing, by Medical practitioners, by those working with children, on vision quests and by artists and writers and other creative
individuals in supporting their own creativity
This book is a personal account by Dr. Gallegos of his experiences with his Totem Pole animals and of some of the experiences of his initial clients
with theirs.
The book is a gentle introduction to active imagery and is of special interest to any one who wishes to explore the Personal Totem Pole process,
either on an individual level or as a therapeutic tool.

Into Wholeness: The Path of Deep Imagery
by Eligio Stephen Gallegos - $15.00 ISBN 0-944164-22-6
Available in German: In die Ganzheit: Meine schamanische Reise zur Selbstheilung. Ryvellus bei Neue Erde ISBN 3-89060-136-7
Deep Imagery is one of the most powerful tools we have in working towards our Wholeness. This imagery is discovered rather than
invented. It comes spontaneously and has its own aliveness and its own direction, its own intelligence. It is imagery that we cannot
control but we can interact with it and develop a relationship with it. It is the imagery that comes to us in dreams but it can also be
invited forth during waking consciousness. In this book Dr. Gallegos explores the use of Deep Imagery as a means of growing into the
wholeness and fullness of our own being, as individuals. Using his own experiences as an example, he shows how the consistent use
of deep imagery can bring about transformation and healing in each of our lives, at the pace appropriate to each of us individually. A
uniquely personal account, he describes many of his own Deep Imagery journeys and the changes he experienced as result, over a
period of years. Dr. Eligio Stephen Gallegos is one of the world's foremost experts on the use of Deep Imagery. He discovered the
Personal Totem Pole Process, a particular means of working with Deep Imagery that combines Jungian Thought with Eastern and Native American
traditions. His work with Deep Imagery takes him worldwide, training therapists, doctors, artists, teachers and other individuals in the use of Deep
Imagery.

The Animals of the Four Windows: Integrating Thinking, Sensing, Feeling and Imagery
Published by Moon Bear Press, 1992.
Published in German as Den Schamanen in Sich Entdecken Verlag Peter Erd, 1993.
The Animals of the Four Windows presents an overview of the four modes of knowing; Thinking, Sensing, Imagery and Feeling. While it
has certain similarities to Jung's ideas on the same topic, it s major difference is that it distinguishes between Imagery and Intuition
in a way Jung did not.
The book describes how the ways of knowing have been distorted and how we have moved out of balance, with a strong bias
towards thinking and sensing and a lack of value on Imagery and Feeling. It explores the possibility of a return by the Four Ways of
Knowing to a balanced relationship with one another.
