A School of Shamanic Practice

Accepting Students for June 2010

Email for more Information or to Register
The Circle of the Whispering Earth follows a Celtic path and applies this path to Shamanism of place - being conscious and connected to the land on which one lives.  This is done by applying the Celtic Wheel of the year to our lives and honouring how it turns within us.  We study the myths of the Ancestors and take what teachings are given, applying them to our current lives.  We journey and hear the voice of this land and the animals and plants upon it and join this with what ancient knowledge we carry inside to complete the circle within.

The training program follows a 3 phase process; planting, taking root and growth.  Below is an outline of the training.  Upon completion you will have completed a one year shamanic apprenticeship.  You may choose to deepen your practice by taking optional workshops such as:  psychopomp work = the guiding of souls, vision questing and personal journey work.  Cost of these will be determined separately.

PLANTING

In this phase of the training we focus on tilling the soil, so to speak.  We do this by ensuring you are healthy and strong - physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.  Strength is NOT defined by reaching some standard but by knowing how both Light and Shadow work within you - you are strongest knowing where your weakest point is.  As a Shamanic Practitioner, it is crucial that you hold sacred space for clients free from your own triggers and/or agenda.  Only through self-examination can we confidently claim this ability.  Shamanism as a faith:  daily commitments to honour Earth (prayer, rituals)
