So what to think of the Modern day Shaman ? With both feet in heaven and his ear low to the ground. Scooping up, filling lungs, breathing in the unfinished stories hiding in nooks and crannies and cracks of time. Breathing out in trilling air with new sound -not heard before, but composed of eons and sacred ions finding their way down Jacobs ladder. Through suspended air, in rhythm with ancient wind carrying it across the world to those curious and brave seekers of the unheard, so deeply felt within. He has recipies handed down by mother Nature-Shaman proven to rebalance soul sickness and leaking life issues, when wholeness is with holes. Connecting …

May you guys please teach a very good technique to use to easily get into different states of consciousness and to have an OBE? I don't wanna use any drugs so please give me methods I could practice on my own and I know there are many online but I wanna learn from someone that's experienced like a shaman.

Good day shamanic people. So I have this thing that keeps happening during my meditations (it became more of dreaming now than a meditation), where my body will go complete sleep mode with my hands becoming heavy as a stone, being unable to keep my head straight as my neck will also get sleepy, all that regular sleeping stuff. After my body shuts down, I will enter some sort of dream state where I will be very aware of my body being shut down, and keeping myself on conscious level. In this dream state I experience dreams that feels very different from my regular dreams. For example I will see through others eyes, it feels like I am in different body, cant take any act…

Recently I had a dream where I was standing on a clear flat round platform that seemingly was in space or somewhere not on Earth it was like covered with a clear Dome I could see out and I could breathe but I shouldn't have been able to theoretically I guess standing in the middle of the room was quite beautiful and seem to be wearing a dress that was kind of sparkly or shiny I remember when I walked in I couldn't see her face but I could feel that she was beautiful and I felt very calm all of my anger and anxiety was gone and I felt happy and at peace there is like a gold wheel kind of like things on a ship where they crank it back and forth and out of nowhere a door ro…

Hello everyone I have taken a few beginner classes in the cave and I was hoping for some input. Early Friday morning my step dad pasted away suddenly from a massive heart attack. I rushed to my mother's house to be with her And spent the night. That night, the night he died I dreamed that he walked into the living room where I was sleeping and leaned over looking at me. I swiped at him in the dream and told him to go see mom. Go go, go see mom She needs you. Then he walked though the wall to the living room on the other side of the house where he had died. That whole day My mother had called out loud to him. For him to come to her. She pleaded him to come in her dreams an…

Has anyone used this?

Hello, Lately, I've been interested in exploring dream layers. By this, I mean I will go to sleep, start dreaming, change it to lucid dreaming and work with that dream for a while... and then go to sleep in that dream and then start dreaming, and change that into lucid dreaming. So far, I've gone two layers deep, and things have gone ok. But, I'm wondering if anyone knows if there might be risk for going deeper? What I'm concerned about it is getting lost by losing count of which layer I'm in, mostly. But, I'm not sure if that's a valid concern? Thanks for any helpful ideas or advice, H

As we know, women dream with their wombs; woman dream naturally from their womb provided that the womb is not being used for sex. I have been intending to be aware when I am dreaming yet I have not been successful at all. Of course, only it was facile during early childhood; anyways, I decided during my awake times (like right now), I am keep my attention on dreaming goals by rambling about it anywhere possible; haha; if this technique helped, YAY! I will keep you updated!

I need help I am having a awakening I need guidance please if someone can help me to understand what's going on with my soul

My dreams when vivid often have relevance that I don't see until the thing comes to pass. This last one was extremely real to me but I don't quite grasp any relevance. In the dream I am driving. Probably to work but I don't know for sure. It is night. I don't realize that I don't even have my headlights on. A car goes by in the opposite direction. I realize I can't see. I turn my headlights on. There is light snow in the lights and the road can now be seen to be slick. My lights begin to work and fail intermittently but I do my best to navigate while I can't see the danger. End dream. It seems like a metaphoric manifestation at face value that maybe …

Hi I have done some study here and there; mostly here - a while back now. This site is my go-to spot for clarification It is comforting to see familiar names ..thanx for still being here :0 I have had a few dreams regarding the death of people I have known in the past ..... I was still studying here when occurred... ..this proved to be a help for me. I have chosen to interpret these dreams as a sort of heads up and thus a way of preparing my self for the event when it occurs. I usually had a close connection with the people who had died I did not find this to be unusual or confronting. However, I am now having these predicative dreams regarding events tha…

Hey there, I'm new to this forum and about a month and half ago i started on my dreaming journey. I been reading carlos Castaneda books, which is the main inspiration for the dreaming practices and I wanted to see if there are any other people out there who also do same practices as well. Anyhow currently I'm having dreaming almost every night since i been abstaining from wasting my sexual energy but so far my dreaming been without any kind of control, meaning I'm completely lost in whatever is happening in the dreaming without being able to stop and take a look at my surroundings or whatever. My main question right now is to how i can stop from being lost in whatever is …

Hello! I'm new here. Although, I've been watching the youtube show since the beginning. I was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience or had some insight for me. I have been lucid dreaming for quite some time now. Most of the time when something disturbing happens and/or scary in my dreams I become lucid. I know that I'm dreaming, can change the environment, and do pretty much whatever I would like to. Recently, I have been having some distressing dreams, but instead of becoming lucid I just change the dream. I'm not aware that I'm dreaming, or at least, I don't think I do. However, I know I'm able to fly/move through walls/change the environment…

Original Article: https://www.shamanscave.com/dreaming/dreaming-stones I have had several requests for information about getting and using a 'dreaming stone'. The process is straightforward and can be adapted by the individual without much difficulty. I should preface this by saying not everyone should use a dreaming stone as a matter of daily practice, but for those people drawn to dreaming energy and having difficulty gaining lucidity, recall, or control in dreaming this is a process which might help. A dreaming stone can help you focus your dreaming energy and control dreaming, dreams can also be stored in the stone, although I'm not a big fan of that use. …

My English isn't very good, I'm sorry, I see a man in my dream all the time, I know him, but we never talked, anyway, i've been walking around the house for 2 months, and then he takes me to my room and the closet mirror, he tells me to look at my room and my wardrobe mirror, i'm looking back and looking in the mirror, and I'm pregnant there and I'm so scared with it, you think it's the same dream and it's always the same cycle. And that man acts like my husband.

Hi, I've read through the content of this website and I wonder if there's any thoughts on combining what is called recapitulation here and dreaming? Can you recapitulate in the dream space. Example I do a meditation / ceremony using drumming with an intention. I then have what I call a dream drama. Where a drama in my normal life, in this case i'm going to use the example of my relationship to my mother and the energies within that relationship are expressed in the dream. The drama or narrative plays out then I find myself in my room connected to my physical body but still in a trance/dreamlike state and there's a vibration on my body that when focused on b…

Hi all. Over the last few months I've had at least 3 " dreams" with a similar theme I walking up to my house but in each dream the house is completely different ( different house, facing direction, terrain etc). While in the dream I recognize extreme amounts of detail down to the smallest thing as though I am actually living in this " dream", the only thing that seams to remain constant is myself and my neighbors it's the houses that always seem to change. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to what may be going on. I do tend to have lucid dreams though not all that often, I do travel during sleep to other locations but for only a matter of a couple se…

Hi Everyone, I just found this place this week and am already signed up for and looking forward to my first course. glad to have found you So background I have been using Dream stones for about a year though I've called them bedrocks. They have helped immensely with being less fearful when awokend from my sleep by energy around me and have helped with recall of dreams that are meant for guidance. So the question - I have had 3 strange dreams over the course of 3ish years where in 2 of them myself and another speak in unison through the entire dream, thoughts, plans, its kind of like narration but it's us speaking vs a voice over, It in retrospect sounds oddl…
