"According to the UK's most recent census, the number of people in England and Wales describing their religion as 'shamanism' increased more than tenfold between 2011 and 2021. ... What’s more, surveys in the US suggest that hundreds of thousands of people there consult shamans regularly." https://www.newscientist.com/article/2486715-the-anthropologist-who-says-shamanism-works-even-if-you-dont-believe/ #religion #shamanism

To start the new year fresh we've smudged our house before the old year ends. This time we've used frankincense.

Gets all the stale energies out of the nooks, crannies and corners, creates space for fresh and clean energies and it's a kind of greeting and thank you to each corner of our house.

Our youngest is now doing her bit with white sage 😀

A Happy New Year to you all! May your days, steps, thoughts and feelings be blessed!

"The global expansion of #ayahuasca is unravelling academic ideas about the brew’s universal effects.

What initially surprised me was how certain ideas I had encountered in Amazonian #shamanism – particularly the notion of shapeshifting – found a surprising resonance in Chinese thought.

Perhaps the takeaway is that ayahuasca visions reveal that our relational horizons of mind, body, #society – even species – are more expansive than we imagine. By navigating this vastness, we can encounter the therapeutic and practical insights that wonder itself inspires."

9,000-year-old Bad Dürrenberg woman shaman burial reveals a lasting ritual legacy

Archaeologists have discovered more about one of Central Europe’s most astonishing prehistoric burials: a 9,000-year-old grave belonging to a Mesolithic woman from Bad Dürrenberg in Germany, who had long been thought to be a shaman...

#ThreeGoodThings, weekend edition:

😃 Had a really great healing-group weekend.

😃 Family constellation work got to the root of a tough issue and showed a way to be at peace with it. Now I need to do my homework, my daily practice.

😃 Hugs and kisses with the kids when we picked them up from their grandparents.

This is it! The last day of the 5-days

FREE!!! FREE!!! FREE!!!

sale of the First Knight Shaman! This is the first book in the Founder's Age of the World of Paradigm Lost by R. Roderick Rowe.

With the upcoming release of the final novel in the installment, you will want to get in on the ground floor of this new EPIC experience!

What's being said about the upcoming novel,

The Third Book of the Knight Shamans?

"This story would most likely appeal to an adult 30+ audience with some college level education, who appreciate literary and speculative fiction. The ideal reader enjoys complex, character-driven narratives with deep philosophical and social focus. The significant LGBTQ+ representation and themes of religious trauma and spiritual exploration would make it particularly resonant with LGBTQ+ readers and those who support them.

It is for a reader who enjoys Frank Herbert's Dune and the moral ambiguity of Octavia Butler's work, rather than the typical post-apocalyptic survival thriller.

Similar books:

1. Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler.

2. The Stand by Stephen King.

3. The Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter M Miller Jr.

The Third Book of the Knight Shamans

... is back from the editor. The edits were so few that I was able to get them implemented in only a couple hours.

She loved it! Okay, as much as ANY editor can love/hate anything. LOL.

Here's some notes from other early explorers:

Nuanced Exploration of Faith
"The manuscript skillfully explores the nature of faith from multiple, contrasting perspectives. It presents faith as a source of oppressive bigotry (a "Christian" church), a tool for personal connection (shamanism), and a fallen, flawed system that has brought disaster into the world. This multifaceted approach creates a thought-provoking and complex thematic landscape."

Confronting Past Trauma
"The theme that the past's problems don't disappear with civilization is effectively woven throughout the narrative. The re-emergence of religious fanaticism and the AIDS virus --both "old world" threats-- forces the characters to actively confront historical trauma rather than simply escape it, giving the story significant depth."

And some VERY flattering character comparisons:
Justin Knight: Similar to Hari Seldon from Isaac Asimov's "Foundation" series.
Rodney Knight: Similar to Leto II Atreides (pre-transformation) from Frank Herbert's "Dune Messiah."
Peter Williams: Similar to Paul Atreides from Frank Herbert's "Dune."

Wow! Two comparisons with Frank Herbert's characters. And it's only a 50K novel!

Remember, the first novella in this trilogy within the World of Paradigm Lost is still free until tomorrow at midnight! What are you really waiting for? You gotta get started on this so you can be ready when the final book in the trilogy is released. Soon. VERY Soon!

@elaurian Every day is a new day, one we've never seen before, and we can make it a good day!

I hope you make your tomorrow a good one, and end your today with a smile.

There's a teaching: 10% in life is 💩 happens, 90% is how we choose to deal with it.

I'm looking to migrate my account to another instance.

Can anyone recommend Mastodon instances with a focus on #healing or #shamanism or #spirituality ?

Failing that, somewhere where there are friendly #softwareengineers especially #Java?

Asking the #Fediverse so boosts would be appreciated!

Magical Realism. Shamanism. Post-apocalyptic survival. Coming of age. Found Family. All of that and more in a short adventure in future Oregon after the great Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquakes have ravaged the west.

Meet Rodney, a seven year old boy who can see the spirits of the dead. Meet Justin, a mostly-absent father who still wishes the best for his son. Meet AJ, the bridge between them and commander of the militia forces sent to liberate the community of Sutherlin from their evil overlords.

St. John's Wort (Johanniskraut, hypericum perforatum). This one is growing in our garden, despite occasional nibbles from our dog.

St. John's Wort is a great healer, helping calm and mend frazzled nerves, anxieties, and a tendency to crankiness.

Hi everyone 👋 I’m Frognosis 🐸🔮

I live close to the desert 🌵 and draw inspiration from #Nature, #Permaculture, and #Solarpunk visions of a more regenerative world.

I’m also curious about #Spirituality, #Shamanism, and the ways laughter and myth connect us back to truth 🌞🌙⭐.

Excited to explore #EcoEvo with you all and learn from this community! 🌱

Shaman (Kam) clothes. Altai shamanism from Kunstkamera archive by Voronina-Utkina

#Shamanism

If you call them, their spirits will come. The past seven generations are there for you. Even if one was weak in life, they can be strong now. And there are more than enough to even out any weak energies.

You can honour them with a small altar in your house or living space, by having their pictures or names displayed there, by giving them a song or a prayer, and by inviting them to feasts and parties by giving them a plate of food.

5/5

#shamanism #ancestors #ancestralhealing

Disconnecting from your ancestors can deprive you of all that, leave you more vulnerable to life's knocks, leave you with a sense of 'I don't belong', and perhaps trying to cover insecurity with bluster or arrogance.

Even if you don't know exactly who your ancestors were, they are still there for you. You can still honour them.

4/5

#shamanism #ancestors #ancestralhealing

Connecting with your ancestors can give you strength, advice, and a feeling of being 'rooted'. They can bless your life, your partner(s), and your descendents. If you honour your ancestors, you strengthen your family. Without them and their stories, you would not be here.

3/5

#shamanism #ancestors #ancestralhealing

Their - Joseph and Elizabeth's - spirits were present. They were pleased to see us and gave us a blessing and advice. I took the chance to return a burden I had carried for them (a technique from the area of #familyconstellation work).

2/5

#shamanism #ancestors #ancestralhealing

A couple of days ago, we visited the grave of my great-great-grandparents in Rhu, Scotland.

It was a surprisingly moving experience for me, I had known the story of the family who lived here 150 years ago for two-and-a-bit generations, but this made it more real, more tangible.

1/5

#shamanism #ancestors #ancestralhealing

Using #shamanic techniques to test which activity for the rest of the day is best for us.

We always do this - activities, hotels, areas. Any decision, really, up to and including major ones.

It's not always the only deciding factor, but it has never let us down.

#Dunoon #Scotland #Shamanism

Is there a Mastodon instance focused on #shamanism, #shamanichealing, #traditionalremedies and the like? Asking the #fediverse

Thinking of #clans, #tribes and wanting to 'belong'...

Many people are born into a family without wider connections than parents, grandparents, maybe aunts and uncles. Family traditions, but no larger tribal group or traditions.

One can yearn for that and be drawn to such groups, hoping for a legitimate reason to belong to them. If one isn't careful, one tries to buy into that culture - kitting yourself out with feathers, or kilt, or lederhosen, or team colours.

2/4

#shamanism #connected

#Cairngorm The #tranquility is so good for the soul / inner peace / mind...

Amazed by the landscapes we drove through...

Got me reflecting on clans and kilts and 'highland' life, even though I have only the most vague and tenuous connection to all that. More in a follow-up toot, maybe.

#shamanism #connectivity #clan #tribe

#Fediverse , can you come up with a name for this #cat ?

He's orange and white, slim, about 3 months old, frisky, inquisitive, fighty and flighty and sees himself as big, strong, muscular and 'a mountain'.

Bonus of you actually ask him #AnimalCommunication #shamanism

He won't give us a yes or no to any of our suggestions or inquiries.

Edit: should be pro pronouncable to German speakers, too ;)

Check out the author's suggested reading order for the world of Paradigm Lost!

The world of Paradigm Lost has grown since it was first conceived ten years ago. When first published, the goal was to complete a trilogy, The Jamari and the Manhood Rites Trilogy was complete three years later.

Now, well now there are multiple novels spanning thousands of years in the world and one could be forgiven if one didn't know where to start.

I've fixed that! Here is the author's suggested reading order to give the best introduction to characters, plots, themes, and overall joy in the experience.

Remember to turn off your adult screening if you want to see some of the other, more explicit, novels in the world!

In the World of Paradigm Lost are three great ages. First was the Founder's Age where the Elk Creek Tribe came to be in the tumult of cataclysmic eruptions. Then comes the Age of Jamari, where the tribe begins to find some stabilization after decades of war and famine. Then came the Age of the Church.
Learn here of the Age of Jamari and how he came to be.

Apocrypha: from Greek "apokryptein," to hide away. In biblical literature, works outside an accepted canon of scripture. The history of the term's usage indicates that it referred to a body of esoteric writings that were at first prized, later tolerated, and finally excluded.
The Knight Shamans of the Elk Creek Tribe became apocrypha when the Church of Jamari grew into prominence. These are their stories as recovered by the Heretic Priest Justice Preston a thousand years later.

The Founder's Age. Young Rodney Knight is cursed with a shamanic talent that could aid his tribe. If only he could get his father, the Founder himself, to acknowledge him. Peter Williams enters the tale and develops shamanic talent as well. Can the two of them keep the Elk Creek Tribe and the community they've built from being overwhelmed by the forces arrayed against them?
