Dear Friends, There comes a time when one chooses to invoke Healing and it perhaps leads us to the past or the areas in our life that we have left behind for whatever reason. It is that time for me. During my recent path to healing and while practicing Shamanic herbs and guidance on my Medicine Path, I was led to do a parasite cleanse. I am in the portion of the cleanse in which most people get sick, from the little critters dying off and decomposing in my body...and it has been interesting. Let me say this from an Anthropological perspective before I further discuss my specific situation; in many tribes, a tribal shaman is tested for their ability (especially as they are growing up) to transmute toxins or highly trans-formative substances...IE. in Peru they pick a child with shamanic tendancies and start them on Ayauwaska at a young age of 8 (sometimes younger). For this cleanse, during my trek to the White Mountains of Arizona this summer...I was led to gather and prepare Wormwood fo

Dear Friends, Are you going to Bhakti Fest? Sacred Spiral community and many of our friends are going and we'll probably be camping together. Join us and exchange energy or get some healing. I am with the Amazon Herb Co/Maca Root booth and as you know I have been studying Shamanic Herbs and Energy Healing for the last two years, and this will be an awesome test for my skills as an Alchemist. My master teacher Medicine Deer, will also be present and guiding me in my remedies and recipes (so if you think something is out of my hands or above my skill set--there will be someone who definately knows best present). I am planning on bringing my Massage table in order to practice healing with Alchemy, Energetic Percussion, Reiki, Aromatherapy, Shamanic Sound Healing and Journey work, and application of Essential oils for healing to Reflexology points on the body. Also join us for meals and fun around the fire. During the day, feel free to request healing on sliding scale donation basis..

Dear Friends, It is an evening of initiation, reflective healing, and friendly masters. It's also the evening before the moon goes full in September 2009. I am pleased with my choices as of yesterday after completing my class on Frankincense at the Library last night when I took feelings to action by taking private retreat in the mountains near Lake Hodges. I am on Vision Quest and staying at a place where I do landscaping while the residents are off at Burning Man. Much to my dismay, several months ago, I learned that my Lunar cycle is transmuted from Manifesting Generator to Projector. Almost momentarily after interpreting this information, I recognized that I do this crazy shift around the full moon, and especially as of late, I have noticed that it's better to be by myself and sleep completely alone for the utmost healing. So many visions came to me this morning in my rest. When I awoke, it was slow to return to this world but none-the-less, I went for a swim and reached ou
