The Power of Moon Ceremonies

The moon is a feminine symbol that represents the rhythm and cycles of life. The moon cycle possesses sacred energies helping women with a deeper insight into their own natural rhythms and how their divine flow guides them to have greater control over their mental, physical, and emotional well-being. It also helps us harness the full potential of our creativity, strength, and power.

Women’s Moon Ceremonies are a special place to make sense of the cyclical energies that influence us, to find clarity, and to connect with other women forming a sacred community. Through participating consistently in sacred ceremonial circles, women reach high levels of consciousness and wisdom that bring profound harmony to all their relationships.

Now more than ever there is a strong call from Life, to create communities supportive of our desire to create harmony in all our relationships. And it is important to begin creating harmony in our relationship with ourselves.

Love Into Wholeness™ is offering now a sacred ceremonial community for women and invites you to be part of these powerful Moon Ceremonies to transform your life. These sacred FREE LIVE ceremonies take place twice a month, at the New Moon and the Full Moon.

Every month at the New Moon we will listen to your deepest dreams, set our intentions, and plant the seeds of our future dreams, anchoring in the power of a sacred group that will hold our intentions through the entire month.

The Full Moon will be our time for grief work, shedding the past, and healing in preparation for the new cycle of creating our new life.

What Conditions do Shamans Help With?

In my last blog “What is Shamanic Healing” I shared with you how shamans see the world and dis-ease and how they work to restore balance for the client to experience wellbeing. In this blog I want to answer a question that people frequently ask me: What conditions do shamans help with?

For a Shaman there is only one cause of dis-ease, and only one cure, although there are many healing methods. The cause of dis-ease is a separation from the sacredness of Nature, both as us and around us. And the cure is found in helping the client to return to Nature. Because dis-ease manifests in different forms - physical, mental, and emotional- shamans use different practices and tools to restore us to our nature and thus, bring balance. Here are the most frequent conditions shamans assist with:

• Energetic imbalances: Can occur in our chakras; in our different bodies (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, etc.); or be due to an over alignment with our feminine or masculine energies, The effects of imbalances manifest in a great range of symptoms too large to list. Shamans use tools such as drums, crystals, candles, feathers, and eggs, to determine the source and nature of your unease or lack of wellbeing. The same elements will be used for healing after the assessment has been made.

• Power Loss: Power loss can occur through having our boundaries violated; sacrificing our own integrity to get certain needs met; internalizing limiting beliefs about ourselves; and anything that disconnects us from our true divine nature. This often shows up as a lack of vitality or zest for life. Other common symptoms of power loss include chronic illness, depression, fatigue, low self-esteem, poor boundaries, suicidal feelings, or ongoing misfortunes. Depending on the source of power loss, shamans create sacred ceremonies that help their clients release guilt and shame related to past decisions; cut cords to end energetic entanglements, and change agreements made as a result of traumatic events.

• Soul Loss: Soul loss is the loss of our vital essence after a traumatic event; the person often feels that they are not the same as they were before the trauma. They may also experience memory loss, difficulty in staying present, numbness, chronic depression, weakened immune system, and chronic illness. To assist with this, the shaman conducts a soul retrieval ceremony where the shaman and client find the parts of your soul that were lost, given or taken away; fully restoring your vital essence.

• Intrusion of negative energies: For years, a person may experience an intrusion of negative energies coming from others, the environment, or their own painful past experiences. This intrusion may manifest as physical pain, anger, fatigue, emotional stress, and other localized illnesses in the body. To help this client, a shaman will perform a shamanic extraction, equivalent to a “surgery”, which removes the harmful energies, yet does not invade the body as it works on the energetic fields.

Stay tuned as next week I will explore myths about shamanic healing. The topic is: Is Shamanic Healing a Magic Cure?

What is Shamanic Healing?

Shamanic healing is not something done onto you, like medication or surgery. You are an active participant at all times. It educates and empowers you to use your innate healing abilities, it also facilitates deep transformational clearing of blockages and reconnects you with your inner power transforming and empowering your vibrational resonance.

Shamanic healing is an ancient way of reverting dis-ease, which is based in the spiritual wisdom and guidance of both the visible and the invisible spirits of life. It addresses the spiritual aspect of physical, emotional and mental lack of wellbeing.

The shaman’s way of life is centered on her/his connection with Divine Feminine as Mother Earth, Divine Masculine as Father Spirit, and all creation. In shamanism, all of creation has a spirit and a soul, and it is sacred. In the invisible realms, the shaman - or shamanic practitioner - is in communion with the Great Sprit that we all are part of, and with the sacred spirits of ancestors, great teachers, avatar masters, angels, and many other spirits according to their particular cultural inheritance.

In the visible realm, the shaman is also deeply connected with the spirits of Nature, such as the elementals, the earth, plants, rocks, crystals, and others. This intimacy with Nature is cultivated at all times through observation, direct experience and ceremony to revere and celebrate Life.

All the visible and invisible spirits guide the shaman - and the client - on journeys to restore balance. A shaman understands that balance and alignment within and with all things, is what creates our reality. When unbalances or misalignment manifest as illness – physical, mental, emotional, and in relationships - or blockages preventing movement in the desired direction, the shaman mediates between the visible (physical) and the invisible (spiritual) worlds through ceremony, helping individuals and communities to clear energetic blocks, healing and restoring balance and alignment within (body, mind, spirit) and with all creation.

Just as with any other healing practice, a shaman begins by assessing the affliction and the nature of it. A shaman’s work is deeply intuitive as she/he listens to the afflicted person and the Sacred Guides to know what tools and practices will work best for a particular person. A shaman works in alignment with nature and therefore uses tools such as drums, crystals, candles, feathers, and eggs, to determine the source and nature of the client’s unease or lack of wellbeing.
