For thousands of years, shamanic healers have been supporting their community using various methods to solve problems, alleviate illnesses and find answers. The strength of shamanism is to act at the soul level in order to find and resolve the causes of illnesses and life crises.
Here is an example: A client always feels tired and weak. The shamanic practitioner embarks on a journey into the non-ordinary reality to his allied spirits in order to find out where the symptoms originate from. The spirits help the shaman to eliminate the causes as far as it is indicated. The changes in the non-ordinary reality will soon also appear in the ordinary reality.
An Oracle is not shamanic per se but it's still an important tool. The connection with the spirits of animals, plants, stones or the elements allows the shamanic practitioner to access universal knowledge. In this way, questions about all personal areas of life can be answered holistically, taking all aspects into account. I work with the stone oracle, Lenormand cards and the elements.
If a traumatic experience occurs, such as an illness, an accident, abuse or the loss of a loved one, parts of the soul can split off in response to this trauma. This separation is like a protective mechanism for our soul. At the same time, we feel that we are missing something; we are no longer complete. The “soul holes” are filled with addictions, destructive actions and distractions. Soul retrieval has been an important method to complete the soul again for thousands of years.
The retrieval of soul parts is usually preceded by an extraction. Foreign energies often settle in the “soul holes” and must first be removed. These foreign energies literally make us feel like we are “not quite ourselves.” With the support of the spirits, the shamanic practitioner detects the foreign energies and removes them effectively. A soul retrieval can then help the client feel more complete again.
After death, some souls are unable to find their place back into the non-ordinary reality. Either they don't know they're dead or they're simply lost. Souls are particularly stuck in places where there has been a lot of violence, death and misfortune in the past. Shamans can not only detect the lost spirits. They can also guide them to a better place.
