Wolf – Shadow Guardian during Blizzard

I first read about Wolf_Shadow -_Guardian_During_Blizzard in Angels on Earth magazine. Unfortunately, the magazine and other items were lost under unusual circumstances during a move. The story haunted me in a good way and I wished I had the magazine so I could write an article about it.
I had written Gerigio, Otherworldly Protector of St. John Bosco , Phantom Wolf or Guardian Animal and Wolf Influential Pagan Symbol and really wanted to write about the wolf who saved a man during a blizzard. Two of my passions are the paranormal and animals. The guardian wolf combines both. Imagine being out in a blizzard with inadequate clothing, nearly losing consciousness due to hypothermia and waking to find a large black canine covering your body to keep you warm.
I’m very much aware of the wolf’s bad reputation fueled by fairy tales and stories blown out of proportion! I thought of my brother’s stuffed elephant toy that played Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf. When I was a child, I loved wolves! My great aunt and uncle had a beautiful painting of a wolf in moonlight. I loved that picture!
As it turned out, I moved again on July 10th. By this time, I had acquired more books for my personal library containing paranormal, Shamanistic, animal and books. All of the books, except for two were packed. One was intentionally left out to be used as a reference for Suite 101 articles until I could get the rest of the books unpacked. The other, Animal Miracles, for some reason hadn’t been packed. On Friday, I got the computer hooked up, but couldn’t access the Internet. I had yet to hook up the TV and was getting bored, so I skimmed through this book. There it was! Guardian Wolf! Synchronicity?
