Hi, For about 3 years I have had strong suspicions (but kept putting them to the back of my head) that I have been called to Shamanic work. There's too much info for me to delve into on here on how my suspicions have built; but I have always had a strong spiritual streak in myself (I was not brought up religiously or came from any form of religious background) and I have reserached and practiced extensively in Wicca/witchcraft/Paganism/Budhhism and Taoism, I did consider Judaism one; but I beleive this was more of a fascination with the language than with the actual religion. But when I came across Shamanism by accident, it had resonated with me in a way the oth…

Hi all, i had an unusual experience recently where I witnessed someone personally very close to me shapeshift physically in front of me. The people shown to me were of people I have known in this life and also a face I do not know. The person afterwards claimed to not be aware of this and insisted they were themselves. This happened after intense emotional discussions...an 'enlightening bliss' experience and then fearful experience. My companion was possibly channelling and we were able to sync each other's thoughts. Anyone able to shed light on what this was about or means? Im out of my depth! i feel like there were possible entitie…

Hello my name is trey guinn i am new to this forum. i am not a shaman but desire to become one. I have a negative entity with me that wont leave me alone and tortures me. i was thinking if i contacted a good spirit that is better and nicer than the one that is with me now, that that spirit could help me to get rid of him. but i don't know how to contact good spirits. can someone teach me? are there any good shamanic courses out there? i'm worried because the spirit that is with me told me he wont let me get into and altered state or trance state of consciousness to call on good spirits. so how do i go about calling on a good spirit to take care of this evil spirit th…

I haven't had any friends in 4 years. I've been feeling very lonely but its hard for me to feel connections with most people, especially since i have no worldly interests. The only spiritual person i know is my ex, but speaking with him would make my spouse uncomfortable so i would prefer not to. I need friends. I need spiritual friends who arent gonna think im crazy when i tell them about all the energies i feel, the beings i see out the corner of my eyes, the messages i receive from my spirit guides. I need someone who understands to listen and guide me as any other friend would

I guess I’m throwing this out to the forum for general reaction and advice. I may have just had my first Shamanistic journey, or whatever I should call it. Afterwards I felt strongly compelled to write it down and post it somewhere… Sorry if it’s a bit long… I throw this out there to just solicit… I don’t know… interpretation? I’m not sure I need that now. Hopefully it will at least be of some interest to those working with this kind of stuff. So I’ve recently been readying ‘the way of the shaman’ Michael Harner, and he has a sort of beginner’s intro shaman journeying thing where you listen to some drumming and visualize going down into the earth into a hole. I tried…

Hi, I'm looking for Maker advice on dealing with life outside of the Shamanic. I notice whenever I'm in my awareness/intent exploring around I am fine. Totally fine, mesmerized, very understanding and respecting of my personal power and starting to accept it. I needed a lot of rest today and allowed that so I dove into the sea a bunch to rest and recover, learning everything I need to know. with my *energy* that is. Everything makes sense, and I can tell my self doubt is either weakening or I'm just not in my head when I'm there. When I get out of it however I'm sucked right back into the abyss again- I just feel like the same old intensely crazy person I am again, i…

I have been experiencing seeing multiple people including my deceased wife in my living room mirror for over 9 months. It all begins when I go to my bedroom at 11 pm at night. I see my wife every night along with other people in groups. If anyone reading this, has or presently is experiencing similar phenomenon , please let me Know. This is an on going phenomenon which also includes sighting of all kind of animals and different venues.

hello its nice to be here my Name is Vision HERO Adoration I hope i can make many new friends here as a shaman i'm still learning

A few other questions, put up here in case no one wants to read this novel of mine (no hard feelings. It's just that there's not really anywhere I can express myself about this. I did hold back believe it or not -.- ) What sorts of entities go about possessing people? And why, respectively? Are there any possessions not considered a negative thing, i.e. more symbiotic? Multiple souls sharing a body? I doubt it, but if so, how can you tell the difference? If I do indeed have a demon, it wishes harm only on those who 'deserve' it, i.e. rapists, pedophiles, etc. Still hateful, predatory emotions, but very specific. It feels protective and guardian-like, …

My father grew up on a haunted farm where there were abductions/odd goings-on, and seemed to carry them away from there... my mother had no (memorable) trouble with demons until she married him, at which point she said there were so many and always around that she had to pretend they weren't there just to stay sane. My father was extremely troubled, emotionally distraught and abusive; demon-harried. A healer he visited outright told him to go because his energy was so dark. Another told him there were 33 demons surrounding his person. His energy is, to me, light and elfin being consumed by some cold, angry, hungry entity; it wishes to consume all. He trauma…

How do you guys have the will to keep living after experiencing the love/oneness of the universe? After my awakening, my world has become so vast. I feel that living within societies boundaries is like cutting off large pieces of myself to tuck away for fear of judgement. This life is so shallow..so oppressed. To be forced to work every day just to have food and shelter. To have only 3 hours each night with my other half, with my future children. It pains me deeply. I would much rather live in a forest, with nature. But I'm pretty sure that is illegal because it's free. The inhabitants of this world neither understand, nor want to understand. I am afraid to open up to a t…

Hey. To start off I've had deep soul loss, which I then retrieved for myself. People in my life took my soul energy. At this point I feel like I'm giving my soul away when I'm in attempts of reclaiming it. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm scared. I feel like I'm pushing it into other people and fragments of it are in my family as Well as other people. Someone please talk to,and guide me

Hi, I'm new to Shamanism. Just beginning to go down that path as my meditation and life experiences have brought me there. Here's a tiny bit of background on me. -Used to get a lot of sleep paralysis with demonic entities. I always felt a bond with the shadow people and they never seemed to have intentions to hurt me. Even though they are fear incarnate and absolutely terrifying. -Bipolar Disorder has opened my mind up to new energy which I channel in meditation. It's part of how I keep my symptoms in check, and myself centered. -Recently my depression energy has been bringing intense darkness into my meditation and I began to feel the presence of enti…

Greetings all. I hope this first post finds you all well, happy, and peaceful. I sought out this forum to engage in some questions to help me figure out this path I have walked for years. I apologize in advance if this post turns out t be to long, but I want to be rather thorough. I will keep it as short as possible however. First off, I am a forty year old man with quite a bit of a "spiritual" education behind me. I do not mention these things to boast, but to give the reader a bit of insight into my question -which will be presented at the end of my post. I am a former Buddhist monk (Ch'an Ssu Lun / Pure Land), Anagarika in Theravada Buddhism (Mahabodhi Maitr…

First of all, hello! I am new to the site and this is my first time posting. I'm trying to find a group of people that I can discuss shamanism and experiences with. The majority of those around me think I'm a little nuts for exploring this avenue, especially since I am generally very logic-minded and do not subscribe to most religious dogma and practices. Most of the people I have met that are open to these avenues and experiences have been less logical and more "out there", so I have trouble relating to them. I'm looking for real discussion and conversation . I hope I worded that in the least offensive way possible. Now to the matter at hand. I am about to unde…

A few years ago I was approached by 3 Sherman at a psychic and paranormal convention you kept telling me that I had an extremely strong energy radiating from me I have a girlfriend who are at once even told me as someone who practices Reiki she has a hard time being around me anyways I was also told I have a very negative male energy attached to me I stopped at a table to get a chakra cleanse and when this woman went to put her hand neat my head she gasped and pulled her hand and back and said she had never seen or felt something so powerful. immediately after she called her husband over who seemed equally as surprised. I asked what they kept looking at. He responded the …

Hello, I have been thinking thoughts that are not my own for about 5 years now. on the very rare occasion they are useful (telling me things i didn't know) but of most the times they are harassing or disturbing. I have been through much humiliation and physical pain in the last 5 years due to the "telepathic?" experience. I have believed my self to be a victim of gangstalking and can kinda relate to the truman show. can someone tell me how to gain a handle on when i communicate with these entities and how to have a more beneficial interaction with them. what are they good for practically?(i think they can help me examine others from afar or even up close) …

Hi I'm new to the forum and to shamanism about a month ago I had a strong urge towards shamanism so picked up a beginner's guide to journing by Sandra ingerman , a few podcasts n random stuff from the net anyway 1st night I tryed to find a anchor point from nature I no of nothing happened it was a cave from childhood same on second n third but the fourth night it was a fox hole I see on a walk I do n I went through eventually came out a cave exit on to a path in the woods with let to a t junction I took the right was wondering around a while then found my self stroking a stag ( my intent was to find my spirit animal) but as I realized what I was doing it kinda kicked me o…

Hello everyone over the last few months I have been having flashes of the past while I am awake, it happens at random times whether I am home or at work or traveling in my car. These flashes are brief but very intense and detailed and I was wondering if anyone else has had this happen to them as they seem to come out of nowhere. Thanks KAF

I saw this documentary on Gaia called: Healing the Luminous Body. There a sacred Dr. by the name of Alberto Villoldo, PhD., introduces and explains the luminous energy field that surrounds and informs our physical body like a blueprint of life. It is a secret of ancient shaman-healers that many of our physical and psychological problems stem from imprints within our luminous body. Dr. Villoldo unveils how to heal and recover from these destructive imprints and regain our physical, mental and spiritual well-being. Join us as we travel to the Andes Mountains to learn the secret of the ancient Shamans, a secret that can lead all of us to health, happiness and beauty. It w…

Hello fellow shamanic practitioners, I have been journeying for about a year and experienced something rather strange last night during a short journey. I embarked on the journey with a very well defined intention/question and about 2/3 of the way through, I felt as if my body was literally overtaken by the spirit of an eagle. It may be important to say that Eagle is my power animal, but I have never before felt like I actually was the eagle in any kind of physical sense. In my trance state, it literally felt like the spirit of an eagle pressed into me and I then experienced having a beak and my actual human head began making subtle involuntary movements and I felt…

Hello there May I aks some thing here? I am under 20 years old,and as some article said,I should not do recapitulation,as I didn't go thorugh much I've read a lot about spiritualism,especially the non-dual traditions,with which I agree,but only on an intelectual level.Is it possble somehow to go to a being level?(Cessation of 'I') Besides the 'outside the maker traditon' questions,can I ask some things? How exactly do you stalk yourself,and become able to have 'any personality'?I've read about it,but it seems like it's observing 'What you are responsible and what you're not responsible for',together with observing yourself.May I ask for a simpler explanation? Wh…

I'm having difficulty discerning if everything written about here is true, though I can tell at least a fair deal of it is. Source It's a very long article, so I'm copying some of the more thought-provoking, important and controversial statements below. Bolded statements are from the original text. The form of the article is an interview between "ATS" (a reporter for an occult/conspiracy forum and 32nd degree mason) and "HH" (a "hidden hand" behind the global agenda who belongs to an offworld bloodline). All quotes are from HH. 1. "The One Infinite Creator (or Great Central Sun) steps down It's Infinite Energy to become Logos. Logos in turn designs vast Universes of…

Ive only recapped 3 times and am seeing some rather aurprising results. Tonight will be my fourth and first nighttime (and cold lol) recap. I have a lot of negative energy coming at my family and a curse object I need to figure out what to do with. I feel a sense of urgency to do this obviously and am working on more than recapitulation although it is helping a great deal and in many ways, not the least of which is maintaining my energy. My question here is about herbs. What herbs have helped in what way for you guys. Of course I can get this information from other sources but in my experience the most legitimate work goes on here and I would value any advice. Even a sho…
