A Vision Quest is a spiritual journey to enlightenment. It allows the individual that drinks the potion to go into a magical slumber to seek the answers they are looking for. Until the answer is found, the drinker cannot wake up.

History[]

Phoebe Halliwell[]

In 2003, after seeing a wolf in Magic School, Phoebe met a Shaman named Enola. She offered Phoebe the chance to see into her future, which Phoebe accepted. After drinking the potion, Phoebe went on her vision quest but found her path blocked by demons several times. However, she later learned they were just distractions and found the thing she was looking for. In her vision, she discovered she was pregnant. She also saw Paige becoming a teacher at Magic School and Wyatt with a younger brother, allowing her to realize that Chris was Piper and Leo's son.[1]

Leo Wyatt[]

Using the knowledge from Enola, Phoebe Halliwell prepared another vision quest for Leo Wyatt in 2004. Because he was tormented by the Creature Heads, he sought answers about his purpose and future. His spirit guide was revealed to be the future version of Chris, who was killed by Gideon the previous year.[2]

Information[]

A Vision Quest is a rite of passage in some Native American cultures. The vision quest is a turning point in life taken before puberty to find oneself and the intended spiritual and life direction. When an older child is ready, he or she will go on a personal, spiritual quest alone in the wilderness, often in conjunction with a period of fasting. During the vision quest, the child is attuned to the spirit world and a spirit guide may appear, showing the child his spiritual and life direction. The child then returns to the tribe and will pursue his purpose.

Spirit Guides[]

Spirit guides are entities that act as a spiritual counselor or protector during the vision quest. These guides can take on many forms. The guide of Phoebe Halliwell was a wolf, which is a pack animal and represents a state of constant search. Leo Wyatt was guided by the spirit of his son.

Notes[]

  • Interestingly, Chris played an important part in both quests shown. Phoebe discovered his true identity through her quest, while he served as a guide to his father.
