KC the totem you are describing is either a pulse totem or a decoy totem

there are 5 different totems

decoy totem (skill), rejuvenation totem (skill), flame totem (skill), pulse totem (skill), and spell totem (support). you need the spell totem to attach to a spell (skill). all the skill gems have hard edges, those are standalone skills. the support gem is the one you want. support gems are spherical. you can link the spell totem support gem to most spells (blue skill gems). if you link any of the totem skill gems to a spell gem then you will wind up with 2 skills that work independently.

the spell totem support gem will show up on your icon as whatever spell you have linked with it. so if you have a fireball linked to the spell totem, the icon will be fireball with the letter T.

you should barter for the spell totem. you might be waiting a long time for one to drop off a mob. to work a trade just keep this in mind; you want to trade something of equal value so you don't get ripped off. if you trade skill gems straight up, then the level required to use the gem should be equal to or close to the gem you trade for. for example, you need to be level 19 to use the spell totem support gem. so you should try to trade away a gem that also requires level 19.

if I did, I would loan it to you. I lost everything in my stash in the last wipe.

now that I'm starting over, I'm playing as duelist and I'm in the low 20's. I bet you have better items than I do.
