An Eclectic Witch's Guide to Shamanic Journeying
Manage episode 303391356 series 2983904
For today’s lesson on Welcome to Magic School, we’re gonna be talking about a very complex subject: I’m going to be sharing with you an introduction to Shamanic Journeying, with the caveat that what I’m sharing is from my own personal experience—I am not officially initiated in any particular shamanic tradition, but the techniques I share in this episode have worked for me and definitely belong in the category of “Witchcraft that Works,” at least in my book.
In Today’s Lesson:
- What is Shamanism? What is Shamanic Journeying? And how does this apply to you and me?
- What is the point of a Shamanic Journey? What are the benefits, and what are the risks?
- How do you go on a Shamanic Journey? How do you mitigate said risks?
