What are Archetypes?

28 May 2022 by Embracing Shamanism

Archi means ‘the first’. They are the primary or first things from which all phenomena come – they are potentials that reside in the ocean of being, the imaginal world. – Archetype, the more familiar term, combines ‘archi’ with ‘type’ – meaning ‘impression’, from the Greek to beat or strike, to mold. – Archetype is the first expression of the archi in identifiable form – though not physically. It … Read more about What are Archetypes?

General Information on the Shamanic Journey

24 May 2022 by Embracing Shamanism

Shamanic journeys are commonly practised with the aid of some percussion: drums, rattles, sticks, stones, body percussion such as clapping of hands etc. A monotonous rhythm supports the shaman to get to what is referred to as a ‘shamanic state of consciousness’ meaning a slightly altered state that allows the shaman/practitioner to drop into a place of peace of mind in order to journey into other … Read more about General Information on the Shamanic Journey

Soul Theft

The term ‘soul theft’ is commonly used for this area of the soul retrieval work and comes without judgement.

Shamanism is not a religion.

16 May 2022 by Embracing Shamanism

It is a spiritual practice, a way of life, a system of healing and communion. It doesn’t matter what the spiritual background is of an individual – whether Hindu, Christian, Buddhist, or non-believer – everyone can practice these Ancient Ways. Shamanism is dynamic, it adjusts and modifies itself to what we believe as individuals to be true. It moulds to ourselves and our lives. For example for … Read more about Shamanism is not a religion.

About the Aura

13 May 2022 by Embracing Shamanism

From a shamanic perspective, our aura reflects our state of health at any given point in time –spiritually, mentally, physically, and emotionally. In some areas of our lives we are in harmony, and in others we are in disharmony – we are ‘out of balance’. For example your relationship with your partner is well balanced and harmonious, you enjoy the work you are doing, however you are sitting on an … Read more about About the Aura

Shamanic Tools

11 May 2022 by Embracing Shamanism

Shamanic tools are wonderful aids to enhance shamanic healing work, however they don’t actually do the work as such – it is the spirits and your intention and open heart, and the ability of the client to receive that bring forth the healing. Yet shamanic tools do play a vital role within the shamanic work and greatly assist the process. Typical tools would be drums, rattles, incenses, crystals, … Read more about Shamanic Tools

Traumatic Experiences

7 May 2022 by Embracing Shamanism

Typical traumatic experiences can be the loss of a loved one, divorce, redundancy, miscarriages, abortions, accidents, surgery, abuse, etc. However, in many cases they can be much more subtle and often occur in early childhood. It isn’t so much about what is happening, but how the individual ‘responds’ to each given situation in life. Someone may suffer unexpected loss of a loved one, yet moves … Read more about Traumatic Experiences

Two Ancestral Lineages

4 May 2022 by Embracing Shamanism

We have two ancestral lineages: our blood lineage and our & spiritual lineage. Our blood lineage is directly related to our family ancestry – our parents, grandparents, great grandparents etc. Our spiritual lineage are our Spirit Teachers, those that we know as our Ancestral Kin that can be from any culture. Communicating with the Ancestors is a vital practice in shamanic cultures. We can draw … Read more about Two Ancestral Lineages

Introduction to Soul Loss

19 April 2022 by Embracing Shamanism

Soul loss literally means that someone has lost part of their soul, their ‘pure essence’. This usually happens through traumatic experiences. In the moment we experience trauma, the part of us/of our soul that cannot handle the situation will leave us for the time being so we survive and get through what is happening. It is a wonderful survival mechanism that we have. However, the difficulties … Read more about Introduction to Soul Loss
