Healing with the Elements

As the New Year is upon us, I wanted to let you know we have a new video class coming to you this winter. It is called Daily Tools for Shamanism, full of tidbits of information on smudge, drums, sacred soil, using water in ceremony, and for health. Many insightful ways to further your relationship with Spirit.

I am also inclined to share a ceremony and journey I have used to help with the heaviness of the year.  Healing with the Elements, shares a ceremony for you to do, followed by a very unique meditation, connecting you to a deeper Healing with the Elements.  This ceremony can be a part of your spiritual tool kit to aid you on your spiritual path. The intention of the ceremony is to provide your deep self an opportunity to exploring healing. It is in the final editing stages and will be available to you in the very near future. [Read more…]

Honoring the Spirit of Autumn Equinox

Items for Kriket’s Autumn Equinox ceremony.Autumn Equinox is a time of intensified energetic frequency. We have a sacred opportunity to honor the harvest of intentions cultivated at the Spring Equinox and nurtured by the light of the Summer Solstice.  Equinox has been celebrated by our agricultural ancestors, awaiting the end of the harvest and the beginning of our slippery slope into the darker days.

I actively seek powerful messages during Equinox. Messages which share with me the efficacy of my work since Winter Solstice. I examine the dreams I incubated after Solstice, the seeds I have planted at Spring Equinox, and the growth I see at Summer Solstice.

In these moments, Spirit invites us to recognize our link to the universe’s cycles, through which we deepen our inherent knowingness of the oneness we are. We become aware of the abundance that we embody simply by being alive.  For those on a journey to deepen spiritual connection, who strive to live from a place of higher purpose, it is the perfect time to open ourselves to embodying spirit and taking our shamanic development to the next level. It is a great time to celebrate our spiritual growth and acknowledge ourselves as beings of Spirit with the potential to profoundly impact the world around us. [Read more…]

Reiki Shamanism

Almost 25 years ago, I received my first degree in Usui Reiki. It was, to me, and my friends, absolutely unheard of. To achieve your Master level, the cost was still $10,000. Reiki has certainly come a very long way, inspiring a whole new genre of healers. I know many people, in and out of, my shamanic world, who are practitioners, and some, are also, teachers of Reiki.

My first introduction to Reiki, was just before I was introduced to Shamanism. At the time I experienced Reiki, I knew it was going to be the “second” part of my three pieces I needed to be “who I was meant to be”. If only it had all been that simple… but I am getting ahead of myself. My first experience receiving a Reiki treatment, was not at all a pleasant one. I remember it clearly, I received it on the Friday night of the weekend course. After the treatment, [Read more…]

Waking The Bear – Shamanic Spring Ceremony

Brown BearSpring, a time of birth and renewal, and what better way to honour it than to hold ceremony for the waking of the bear from it’s long sleep.

Why, you ask, is this an Auspicious Day? Well, let me start by telling you about the number 3, which I am fascinated by. In Finnish Shamanism, and in others, there are three worlds… Upper, Lower and Middle. There is the maiden, mother, crown; there is the father, sun and holy spirit; in fact there are trinities galore… innumerable Triads… even Baba Yaga, A Russian Crone, had three faithful servants; the White Horseman (Her Bright Dawn), The Red Horseman (Her Red Sun) and the Black Horseman (Her Dark Midnight).
