  1. I've experienced much of my life in other spaces than the third dimension. I oscillate between whether my experiences were 'real' and of an etheric nature or were rather just in my sometimes overactive imagination. I'm noticing that much of my energy is tied up in places other than the present moment and it is affecting my memory, my ability to parent, and my overall energy levels; I know that I can't do my great work without healing myself first. I know that I need to pull myself back to me, I've sensed this for awhile now, but when I look at the basic recapitulation instructions, one must imagine the moment where their energy is stuck. Moment to me implies time and spa…

    Is it a good idea to make a sadness stone, or rock, just like an anger rock, but for sadness? Would one go about that in the same manner as making an anger rock?

    Hello all - So recap! Wow! It's really opened up a whole lot of stuff. Starting the dreaming class has started to shift things as well... I'm beginning to notice energies creep around the room, I feel them crawling around my legs sometimes. I've been noticing entities and how people become attached to them as much as the entities attached to the people. Inorganics are a part of everyday life!!! I've been catching these sensation and visual glimpses of moments where I see... Extra colors at times, or shadows... But then I've been noticing entities. When an entity is noticed and that it's attached to a loved one, what can I do?! The past few weeks have be…

    Hi all, I have done a little research about shamanism, sought advice from a friend who is initiating as a shaman, and have also took part in a shamanic session. I’m looking for a few more opinions on some of my own experiences and would be grateful for any insight. I’ve come across the idea of shamanic illness or sickness, and can’t help but wonder if it applies to myself - my physical and mental health have suffered quite a bit but I’ve been unable to find any relief via conventional or homeopathic means. Acute anxiety, depression and insomnia have been present for twelve years, and I’ve been so diligent in seeking treatment and keeping up routines, following all ad…

  9. Hello. So I moved to a rental apartment, that previuos owner was a very uncalm person as i would name him. The thing is the owner is still alive but he is not living here anymore. My relatives agreed to rent it for me. This apartment contains a lot of the old owners stuff that i cant get rid of for now. So this energy keeps disturbing me when i meditate in this room. During meditation silluethe of man would apear in front of me, recently i felt two of them. One was really unpleasant and i told him i dont want anything to do with him, and that he would leave me alone. Ofc i stop my meditations during those moments, but still can feel bad energy arround me. I would need…

    I've been stalking for like... a year and a half or longer but i surely could still learn more about it. I'm imagining intent matters quite a bit here so what intentions can/should one set when stalking? How do you channel that intent into the practice? I'm familiar with the concept of stalking one's own self importance out of existence and also stalking one's own power... i guess to reclaim it? or materialize it? I find that interesting that the practice can be used to both recover something that is wanted and to get rid of something that is unwanted. Most of the time that i'm stalking it's pretty low key and based primarily around physical action. To me the physica…

  11. Here is a more important question - much more, and one that differs from any I've asked befor. Bear with me. I have many wares I craft and sell, and have as lately looked to sites such as Etsy or Ebay to sell, but neither excpet crafts made of animals. Most of my crafts incorporate things made from animals - both disallowed from each place. I am a unique merchant in that each piece is from whatever animal from wheverver - no matter the distance needed to travel. All are made uniquely from andimal skin, bone, and/or stones, jewels, et cetera to create the exact piece of jewelry the consumer needs, but none of these mainstream sites accepts this. Some are …

    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…

    I have asked out sources, with little to no avail, so I figured I would ask here. A few weeks back now, I was asked to purify someone's house. During the ritual I was burning sage and moving the smoke about the area. Almost immediately, there where complaints from another of the household about the smell of burning metal. Which was an legitamet complaint. At this point, I was finished the job, I used tobacco, sage, cedar and sweet grass, in a clay pot with the bottom lined with quartz. Doing a small dance with a rattle, it seemed my little fire consumed all of its flresources quicker then I have seen. However the smell left and the negativity broke. I kn…

    Ahoy there! I am Melissa (though I don't tend to go by my first name online). Rae is a common nickname for me. Whatever mish-mash of my username is fine, too, if that's easiest for folks. I'll skip the rambling intro (for now) and just jump in with a question! I know shamanism as a calling often leads folks to working as a healer in some capacity. It seems practical (inevitable?) to integrate the shamanic into whatever work one does professionally. For people who work in "real world" fields of health and wellness, it seems pretty obvious how the healing might carry over. But I am curious how this might manifest for a professional artist (like me)? I like the idea …

  15. I will begin by explaining my primary struggle: Sometimes (about once a week on average) I am overwhelmed by a solipsistic waking nightmare in which i am the only conscious entity and all the suffering in the world is my fault. It happens mostly in public places but sometimes it strikes at home. When i am hit with it I feel evil and pathetic. In it I am being given a choice. Accept the "knowing" that I am evil and punish myself or opt out of remembering my own lowliness and inherit a greater punishment. The idea behind it is that by sustaining my existence i am sustaining the horrors of this world. As an American i am dependent upon fossil fuels and plastic packaging…

  16. I decided to directly recap a lot of trauma two days ago. I spent pretty much one whole 12 minute recap session focusing on trauma from childhood and adulthood bouts with psychosis. My friend had cautioned me against doing this kind of thing too soon, probably two or three years back. But I've been recapping daily for a long time and i reached a point where i was like... well my psychosis couldn't get much worse than it already is so i ought to try going directly after the really difficult memories. I had a huge breakthrough a few hours later. This may be in part due to the fact that i've been meditating a lot and eating better. So it's unclear what i was doing right. Now…

    Hello All, I've been finding that a certain repetitive conflict. Emotionally I want this, but dreaming energy, the long stretch says otherwise, or rather the driving force is pushing me to do something else. I haven't been able to see this and put in words until today. Knowing where my emotions are being pushed and pulled, and knowing inside of me that there is something not quite syncing in with me at the same time. It's quite confusing. What I do now when this comes up, I try to sit and not move until I can have a better sense of both. I'm kinda leaning towards the knowing than the emotions. any thoughts?

    I've read Makers don't really work with animal spirits. From reading and from my experience, I understand why one might choose not to. But I wonder, then, why there are several exercises that involve working with rocks. Why work with rock energy and not animal energy? I could extrapolate my own answers, but I'd like to know the reasoning of Maker folks, if people don't mind sharing.

    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, …

    Hello everyone. Its more like a question then a discussion, so i don't know if its right thing to place a new topic here. If its not excuse me i am new here. So the thing is I made my dreamstone and it works really nice! But I am thinking about polishing (tumbling) it using jar with sand and water. The question is does the dreamstone's effect will be destroyed durning the process? Will I Have to repeat the dreamstone's creation process or will it become unusable? Thank you!

  21. Hi everyone. I think that a loved one who has passed away has become one of my spirit guides. I believe he has tried to contact me on a psychic level, but my grief is getting in my way. Is anyone here able to do spirit guide readings? I wish I could confirm that I am seeing, hearing, and otherwise perceiving him correctly, but I just can't be sure without some type of external confirmation. If anyone receives a message or sign they could relay, I would gladly receive it with all due consideration - you may be helping more than you know. Thank you very much.

    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…

    Hello all I've been having a few questions on using allies and how the maker tradition tends to not use them because of the necessary payback that is involved. I'm going to be doing an Ayuascha ceremony soon, and am wondering about all of this. And when it comes to food as an ally, how are we giving back with that? I'm not sure I understand this concept very well, any input will absolutely help!

  24. (Disclaimer - There is no use of, either literal or implied, drugs or violent acts herewithin this story. This story is being shared in a safe space where we Shamans are not judged, and so I will not invade that with anything that may trigger anyone else. In addition, although I do not follow the same path as many here; some being healers, some dreamers, some seekers or makers, mine is my own. But who are we if not open minded? I speak with spirits and follow Northern traditions.) I will begin this in the most logical of places; I will begin in the middle. For ten years I’ve had a single, benevolent (towards me) spirit living with me in my hous…

    Hi everyone. It’s been a long time I couldn’t share anything here. But that doesn’t mean Makerish things aren’t happening to me anymore… Conversily, these kind of things are becoming like my daily routins ( and I’m still having problem about believing them like, how they could become 😊 ) Well, last year, at Master of Intent class, I had set my intent about upgrading my car. It was spring’23 and I was planning to upgrade my car at winter’24. After heavy busyness days of summer and autumn, with the new year I would buy a newer model car. I had set my intent for my car. My old car was a 19 years old, at 159.500 kms, Opel Corsa. It had painting issues but had a…
