2026 In Person Workshops
Advanced Shamanic Divination Training
Saturday-Sunday September 26-27, 10am-5:30pm
**Prerequisite: The Way of the Shaman (in person), OR The Shamanic Journey, Shamanic Divination in Practice, and Shamanism Spirits and Healing (online)
One of the classic tasks of the shaman is to journey into nonordinary reality in order to obtain answers to questions, both at the request of others and for oneself. Participants in the workshop have the opportunity to engage in divination journeys for each other as well as for themselves and to gain experience in using various time-tested shamanic divination techniques. In the shamanic search to become persons of knowledge, they learn, as shamans have from time immemorial, how to converse with plant and animal spirits, how to learn about the use of quartz crystals, and how to seek and receive revelatory knowledge from visionary sources.
In addition to the items listed above, please have with you:
-
A rough-surfaced, grapefruit sized rock (NOT a crystal)
-
A small quartz crystal, at least 1 inch long, and something to cover it when you are not using it
-
A blanket that blocks out light
-
8 small objects, which you can hold together in your cupped hands, which you picked up outdoors
Cost is $315 for this workshop
Shamanism, Dying, and Beyond
Saturday-Sunday October 10-11, 10am-5:30pm
**Prerequisite: The Way of the Shaman (in person), OR The Shamanic Journey, Shamanic Divination in Practice, and Shamanism Spirits and Healing (online)
Participants learn how to deal with the issue of dying and the destiny of souls from a shamanic perspective. The workshop is both for those who wish to learn for themselves, and for those who wish to help others who are in terminal situations or who have already passed on. Experiences to be undertaken include learning how to become experientially familiar with the after-death realms, tracking a person using shamanic journeying, completing unfinished business, helping a person to cross over, and classic psychopomp work.
Cost is $315 for this workshop
