COURSE

Shamanic Journey To The Lower World

With Claire

In this 10-day course you will learn how to go on a shamanic journey to the lower world and meet with your power animal. You will work mostly with your power animal, the spirit of fire and the spirit of earth. You will discover how to use your different psychic senses to communicate with your power animal and the nature spirits, and how to access your most natural psychic sense. You will learn about the portal between the different worlds and how to move in and out of the non-ordinary reality. There will be an exercise for you to find your specific portal to the lower world. We will delve into the three different worlds - the middle, the lower, and the upper worlds - from a shamanic perspective. You will understand the difference between imagining versus receiving messages which is important for a good, clear shamanic journey. We will also discuss the causes and symptoms of power loss, and in one of the journeys, you will go to your place of power to retrieve any personal power that you may have lost. You will learn how to develop the relationship with your power animal, including how to create a spirit home for them, and how to create ceremony and ritual to invoke the presence of spirit. You will get a glimpse at the future to see what your life could look like when you are living totally in the truth and power of who you are. You will merge with your power animal to embody the gifts of power that they bring you. The course includes theory,as well as many practical exercises where you will get to experience a traditional shamanic journey with only drum beats. The rest of the journeys will be guided by myself, with carefully selected sounds and music to evoke the different themes.

Lesson 9

Mother Earth & How To Support Her

Today you will learn about the spirit of Earth from a shamanic perspective and how she is our mother - a living, breathing, pulsating being. I will share with you my experience of an underground burial ceremony that I participated in during my shamanic training and how this metaphoric death connected me intensely with Mother Earth. You will have the opportunity to journey to the spirit of Earth and learn more about what you are letting go of now (i.e. what is your metaphoric death) and how you can let go of the old with ease and grace as you move deeper into the truth of who you are.

Today I will share with you frequently asked questions like ‘how to learn more about your specific power animal’, ‘how to get the best out of your shamanic journey’, ‘hallucinogenic drugs for shamanic journeying’, ‘telling people about your power animal’, and ‘next steps on your shamanic path’. You will do a guided visualisation to connect with your power animal one last time during the course, and you will merge with your power animal as they bring their gift of power to you.

Great course with good balance between theory and practice. I liked the method of explaining what was going to happen beforehand and then letting us explore our own imagination and inner world without talking constantly, which happens in many other courses.

Really enjoyed this course and got a lot out of it. I have a strong inner skeptic and I thought that might get in the way - but it didn’t. The course is really nicely paced. I am looking forward to deepening my relationship with my power animal. Thank you!

A really beautiful and at times emotional journey. There are days it seems nothing is happening but then you stick with it and it feels amazing and natural. You may learn some truths about yourself that it was hard for you to see or even believe when others have told you. I feel so grateful that I allowed myself the chance to experience this journey.
