Medicine Drum.
I am still on this journey. This roaming. As with most journeys there have been stop overs, side trips, long stretches and rest periods.
This post is about a medicine drum. Long story very short. Bumped into a Shaman friend. Medicine Crow. Did this twice in a very short time frame. He suggested I come see him and we start me getting serious about Shamans.
Today, with Crows guidance, I honored the horned one. A Deer. His hide was used by me to make my own medicine drum. I am forever grateful to my horned brother.
This making of this drum is still sinking in. I have come away from this different. A far deeper understanding of myself is setting in. A deeper yearning to to make this roaming more meaningful.
The medicine from this drum is very far reaching. I see it bringing much healing to myself and many others.
Thank you Brother Crow.

My Altar..
Today I did some healing on myself. I have, maybe, the flu. Thats what it feels like. My partner, Jan , was also off to the dentist as well.
So while she was out I set up an altar and did a healing for us both.
I created a circle of protection around the altar and myself. Did not want any unwanted being taking part too. I used my Athame to do this and visualized this circle surrounding me.
I asked Mother Earth and Father Heaven to be present. Asked the Four Elements to be present, guide me and guard me. I then dedicated the shell pendant I had previously made to bring healing to me while I wear it. Recited a healing affirmation three times for myself and Jan. Sat and meditated on the energy coming up from Mother Earth for a time. Gave thanks and closed the circle.

On my altar: Candle for Fire. Blue Kynite resting in a rock from the ocean for Earth. Incense for Air. Boiled cold water for Water. Totem in the middle to me represents Mother Earth and Father Heaven. My Book of Shadows. Music that was playing while at my Altar was from Medicine Crows CD "Spirit Journey."

Reiki for Surgeries...
Taken from http://learnreiki.org/articles/reiki-for-surgeries.htm
Reiki for Surgeries
By Dr. Lourdes Gray
"There is a lot of confusion out there regarding how to administer Reiki to patients who will be undergoing surgery. Some Reiki Masters recommend treating only a specific part of the body, such as the shoulders. Others recommend treating the head in an effort to decrease the tension and anxiety related to the impending surgery. Although these partial treatments may offer some value, there is a specific protocol that was taught by Hawayo Takata, the woman who brought Reiki to the West, and by John Harvey Gray, who was the longest-practicing Reiki Master Teacher in the West, until his passing into spirit in January 2011. I would like to share this specific protocol with you.
Reiki Treatment Prior to Surgery
Administering Reiki prior to surgery can be helpful to the person (or animal) by preparing his or her mind/body for the procedure. Reiki works with the natural healing process of the body. Since Reiki is a balancing and harmonizing energy, it helps to release stress and tension and places the body in its optimal state for healing. Reiki is not just for physical healing. Reiki works at all levels ... physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. The very first step is to get permission of the person who is undergoing or has undergone the surgery to treat him or her with Reiki. If the person's energy level is in the average or good range, you may give a complete Reiki session the same day or on the eve of the surgery, doing all three Reiki patterns (front of the torso; head, neck and shoulders; back of the torso, back of the knees and the plantar surface of the feet). Administer Reiki in each of the positions for two to three minutes each. However, if the person's energy level is low, then it would be more beneficial to him or her to receive a series of Reiki sessions prior to surgery. Start at least one week prior to surgery, giving daily sessions (same three patterns, 5 minutes per position). If you are a Reiki II Practitioner or above, you may use the mental/emotional symbol during the second pattern to give a mental treatment to the body ... readying it for the procedure. During the mental treatment, you may wish to do a visualization of the person having a successful surgery and healing very quickly. Remember that the mental/emotional symbol also activates a communication pathway that allows you to communicate with the person's Higher-Self (the body's healing process.)
Reiki Treatment Post Surgery
During surgery, you, as Reiki II level practitioners or above, can be giving the person or animal an absent treatment aka Reiki distance treatment. This can be very effective. I remember giving a relative of mine an absent treatment while she went into labor and I could feel each contraction. A Reiki absent treatment during the surgery itself will help to reduce stress levels and support the body's ability to undergo the procedure. It would also be a good idea to give a Reiki absent treatment to the surgical team. Give them a group absent treatment in the second pattern. You may do a mental/emotional treatment focusing on their being alert, focused, and calm ... while working efficiently.
After surgery, treat the patient with Reiki as you would an emergency treatment (injury). Go to the affected site ... the surgical incision, and deliver Reiki energy from above (3 to 5 inches above the body). Do not touch the incision. The area would be too tender and the weight of your hands would be too uncomfortable for the patient. Simply hover over the area. You will feel a great surge of energy flow there. Stay there until the flow decreases. The length of time will vary from case to case. On average, a good 30 minutes to one hour of Reiki would be helpful. After treating the incision, release the memory of the surgery from the body by treating the adrenal glands. Takata said, the adrenal glands hold the memory of an injury (or surgery) in the body. In order for the body to be able to heal better, one should release the cell memory of the procedure from the body. Treat the adrenal glands from the back (third pattern, top of positions 3 and 4). In most cases, the adrenal glands will absorb a good amount of energy when they are active. Most Reiki Practitioners experience a great deal of heat and tingling during the treatment; administer Reiki to the adrenal glands until your hands cool off. On average it takes 10 minutes for this to happen. If the person cannot lie down prone, you may treat the adrenal glands from the front of the body by placing your hands over the top of positions 1 and 2 of the first pattern. Since the energy has to travel through the body to reach the adrenal glands, on average, you will need to treat (from the front) for approximately 20 minutes.
You may also do the post surgery Reiki treatment absentee. Either way, it is helpful to use the mental/emotional symbol in the second pattern to communicate with the patient's body. Visualize the person or animal healing quickly and completely ... feeling strong, happy and healthy.
Reiki Treatments During the Period of Convalescence
For the first week or so following surgery, continue to administer Reiki treatments daily. Do either hands-on or absent treatments. Treat as you would a chronic condition, givingcomplete treatments. Concentrate more time over the area that had surgery (do not touch the body ... work from above). Remember to include mental/emotional treatments to support the body's healing process. Depending on how well the person is doing, you may gradually decrease the frequency of treatments ... for example, three treatments during the second week, two treatments the third week, etc. As always, we welcome questions. If you have a question or comment regarding this article, please go to our facebook page and post your question there. We will be more than happy to answer it.
Namaste"

Plant Spirit Medicine...
Plant Spirit Medicine is a practice that begins with ritual, cleansing and prayer. It then shifts to a Shamanic Journey into non-ordinary reality seeking the Spirit of a particular plant.
Before embarking upon the Shamanic Journey, always in a natural setting, considerable time is spent building intimacy with a particular plant using a process of careful observation, of human awareness and of asking questions.
The plant is looked at closely. Where does it choose to grow? What is the neighborhood like? Is it alone or with family? Who are its friends? How does it come out of the earth? Does it look tall? Is it bushy? What is the shape of the leaf? How does it reflect the light? Where do the shadows fall? What else is there to notice about the plant?
Listening is very important. What kind of sounds do the branches and leaves make? Do the flowers sing? Is there a hum? Does the wind orchestrate the plant's vibrations? What can be heard when walking by? While sitting down to listen closely? Being still and paying attention are most helpful.
The sense of smell taps deeply into humankind's ancestral wisdom. Does the plant have a scent? Is it musky, dark, nocturnal? An essence of sweetness and light? Fragrance that comes in waves? Steady and smooth? Does the smell bring up a memory?
How does the plant taste? Is it juicy? Is it dry? Is it sour or sweet, bitter or salty? Does it have a pungent flavor? What happens to the tongue and the throat? Is it easy to swallow? Is it best not to?
What happens when the plant is touched? How does the plant respond? What physical sensations does it transmit? How does the plant feel between the hands? Against the face? By the lips? Under the feet? Next to the heart? Is it hot and warm or cold and cool? What direction does its energy come from? Is it East or West? North or South? Does the plant connect most with the sky or the earth? The moon or the sun? Does it feel soothing to touch? Does it repel?
Following this careful preparation the Shamanic Journey to Plant Spirit begins. The intention is set. "I want to meet with the Spirit of ... " "What is her gift?"
The journey is carefully attended, all details are recalled and documented. The knowledge disclosed by the Plant Spirit is greeted with respect and kept in strict confidence. It is to be used only for the highest good.
The information gained from the Shamanic Journey and the Plant Spirit found on that journey can be invoked again and again. Plant Spirits can be asked to give exactly what is needed.

The grass may be green for you...
I was born this way. I was born with a condition called Deuteranopia.
Green colour blindness. I do not have any green cones in my eyes. Means I
should never work as an electrician. Can’t be a train driver as the signals are
in green and red. Tried to get a job as a train driver. If signals had of been
in yellow or blue I would have got the job in a flash. Oh well.
This condition has no cure. Has caused me lots of
frustration over the years I can tell you.
Today I found a place where I can see greens. A place where
I have perfect colour vision. Where my brain does not get confused by the colours.
I was on a Journey. A healing Journery. Not for myself but
for someone else. I was with my spirit guides and we had finished the healing
part of this Journey. It was suggested by my Owl that we go flying and have
some fun. Little did I know he had a big surprise for me. Up onto his back and
off we zoom up into the sky.
I love the other worlds. I love how they are not governed by
any of the rules of the reality I am in as I type this.
We are flying along over a beautiful vista of mountains and forests. I look down at this amazing scene. Then I gaze up and see that below has been mirrored above us. What a hoot (pardon the pun). This is when I notice that I can see the greens. All of the greens. I am brought almost to tears by this. No brain confusion. I see these vibrant colours and hues of green for the first time in all their glory and know that they are green.
My Owl says to me there is no colour blindness in the other
worlds. He is laughing so hard. Not at me but with me as I laugh with joy at
this whole revelation.
As I type this I can still feel the elation from this part
of my Journey.
Thank you to my spirit guides. Thank you for how much you
love me and care for me.

~*~*~ Made to Heal ~*~*~
My spiritual roaming is leading me into making things that bring healing. Firstly I have an intrest in the ways of the Medicine Wheel. So what better way to get to know the healing power of this very old symbol than to make my own.
Till next Roaming Love and Light to you all.
Made from Willow. :) Feathers are from Pee Wee, Rosella and maybe Kookaburra.
The Medicine Wheel I made for the door to my Healing Room. This has the 4 elements represented. Black Obsidian arrow head for North (Earth). White feather for East (Wind), South is Sage (Fire) and West is a shell (Water). Quartz in the Centre. Wheel is made from Morning Glory weed. I think this is a great way to recycle this weed that is killing our native bush off.
Made from Morning Glory weed, twine and some drift wood I found at Minni Waters. Feathers are Pee Wee and Bush Turkey. All found on the ground around where I live.
As Above so Below Medicine Wheel, The symbol engraved in the middle is one I use when doing Energy Healing. Wheel made from Willow. Wood with symbol is drift wood I found on the beach at Diggers Camp. North NSW Australia.
Cho Ku Rei Medicine Wheel. Art work by Jan Jury my partner. 4 crystals for the four directions. The wheel is made from Morning Glory weed thats has twisted around itself. The energy from this one as I was making it was very strong.
I have been making my own Pendulums for awhile now. I use them to remove bad energy and replace with good energy during a healing session. You can also use them to find things you may have lost.
I have found with Shamanic Journeying that I have 3 Spirit Guide helpers. An Owl, a Tree and a Red Wolf. Of late the Red Wolf has been crossing realms and appearing around our home. The Tree has been a great healer to me in my journeys. The Owl is the Spiritual Guide in my life. The Tree my Healer and the Red Wolf my Warrior and Protector. So to honour them I did the folowing rock paintings.

Worker with Spirits....

Tibetan Singing Bowl CD is playing in the background. The vibration from this is bringing my energy into synch with it. I am flat on my back on a massage table at a Reiki share. My Reiki Teacher/Master and a Level 1 Reiki pupil are doing Reiki on me.
I use some Breathing relaxation to take me further down the path of relaxation. Breath in, hold count to 4. Breath out , hold, count to 4. I use this anywhere when I want to relax. I find it works very well.
As I go deeper into myself I start to Journey. Journey like I have never done before. I can “ride the drum” as it said about Journeying when there is a drum beat taking you there. Of late I have found that I can do this with some Breath work.
Here I am standing in the middle of an immense forest. Tall, straight trees crowd me in. They tower over me. I find I am naked and I am dancing. All of a sudden there is a Shaman's drum in my hand and I am beating it with a drum stick. I am dancing around in circles to the beat of this drum. Next to me appear shapes. Shapes that look like people. They seem to be dressed in Shaman's robes. I have no idea how many are dancing with me. The trees too have started to dance with me.
I see myself from slightly above. I too am now cloaked in a Shaman's robe. It is made out of long strips of tree bark. Upon my head is a hat made from living tree branches. I am stilling dancing to the drum. Spinning and spinning.
Then bang. I am walking down a tunnel. A tunnel of fire. I feel no heat. No fear. Just amazement as the tongues of flame wrap themselves around me. Now I feel something. Something so wonderful. Something so joyous. I feel love. Unconditional love coming from the flames.
Wham, I am transported up into the air. The fiery tunnel is no more. I am floating in the bluest of skies. I feel as if I do not weigh anything. An enormous cloud appears. Formed in the cloud is a face of a very wise old man. A happy face it is too. The cloud wraps itself around me. Again I feel loved.
I am plummeting downwards. Yet there is no wind roar. No sound at all. As I am falling I start to realise that these could be the four elements. Air, fire, earth and water.
I land in the ground. My body has embedded itself into the moist earth. I see myself from above and I am melding into the ground. To the point that it is hard to see my features. This time I can feel the earth against my skin. I feel that love again.
Water. I am now underwater. Crystal clear water. In the reality that you are reading this from, I am not a very good swimmer. Yet I have no fear of drowning. Again all I feel is love.
Back in the forest. So many smiling happy faces greet me. The party has been going on still while I have been away. All the Shamans and trees are so happy to see me back. Out of the crowd my Owl Animal Guide steps into view. We greet each other. I ask where has he been. Over the last few healing treatments I have given to my clients, he has not been present. He laughs and says he has always been with me. I have just not seen him. He tells me that I have a new name now. A Spiritual name. One that I am not to tell anyone. One that is only used when I Journey. He also tells me I have been initiated into the ways of the spirits. I have become one with them.
A big cheer goes up from those who are gathered in the forest. The overwhelming feeling of love that is given off to me is breathtaking to say the least.
The chiming of Tibetan bells calls me back. I slide back to the realm of me laying on the massage table. My time on the table has come to an end.
Up from the table I see the smiling faces of all who have been doing Reiki and those that have received this healing energy. Yet I still feel so present with all back in that forest. A feeling of exhilaration sweeps over me. My life purpose has been confirmed to me.
I ask my Reiki Teacher/Master if she saw anything. She smiles and says yes she did. So I explain what has happened. It turns out just as I entered the forest she was putting Reiki energy into my heart and third eye chakras. She was so drawn to connect my heart and third eye/mind as she felt they were not connected at this point in time. I explained to her that I had been doing a lot of work on myself to allow me to let go old belief patterns that seem to be holding me back. At times strangling me. Her fingers hovering over my third felt like they were being pulled in by a magnet. At the same time the word Shaman came into her mind. She was being told that this is what I am.
I know that in some circles it is not recommended that we boast about being a Shaman. That we never call ourselves a Shaman. Yet I can not deny what has happened to me and what my Teacher/ Master thought I was.
The above happened to me on Saturday 7/5/2011.

War on the soul....
War. The Art of War. The act of killing and maiming people. Invading another country to control that country and its people. Power over a whole nation. Planes dropping bombs on innocent civilians. Women and children fleeing the carnage. Tanks running soldiers down. Terrorists blowing themselves and innocent bystanders up. We have all seen or heard about this happening in the real world. We have seen images of war broadcast into our lounge rooms via the T.V set. For most of us we can detach from this. It is on the T.V so it is not really real. Yet it is all too real for those that go through it. Either as combatants or and the victims of war. Many are left scared for life. Both physically and mentally. Many a soldier has come back from war only to harm members of their family or themselves as they try to come to terms with what they have been through. This is the great tragedy of war.
In shamanism it is said that if someone goes through war they lose part of their soul. It is how they try to cope with what they have done or seen. Part of their soul leaves to try to protect itself. This might explain why so many who go through wars can not lead a normal healthy life. Maybe this is why they wake in the middle of the night in a cold sweat from a nightmare. Reliving the terror of what they have been through in a distorted dream. Some never get over the effects of war as their soul have fragmented. They can never feel whole again.
Years ago I used to work in the war industry. I used to make training simulators to help troops to fight smarter. I spent many many hours studying and watching videos of live combat from the latest war zone. Thankfully I have left that industry. The path that my life has now taken is one of inner peace. Yet I can still feel the effects of watching all those videos. The effects of making what were especially games, war-games, had on my soul. It makes me feel empty. Distant from myself. I feel very little love for myself. Very little love for those around me. I felt like I would enjoy destroying. I was addicted to killing. Even if it was just pixels on a screen. Pixels that represented people.
The years have gone by. I have found a path of inner peace. Sitting browsing the net I came across some videos of the latest up and coming wargames for PC and the other consoles. I watched a few. I walked away feeling numb. I had no feelings at all. My inner peace had run off. It felt like my soul had gone into hiding. Not that I blame it at all. It took me some hours to bring the peace back. This after only watching 10 minutes of game trailer videos. Which by the way are very graphic in their content.
As my feelings slowly came back to me I started to realise the affect that these games are having on our younger generation. This younger generation spend almost all their waking hours playing these games. They play online against each other. Hundreds of kids all playing on the internet killing each other. Blowing things up. Being entertained by computerised death. What they don't know is that they are damaging their souls. So much so that some may never be able to lead normal lives. Some will become killers in real life. Some will become abusers in real life. All because they have allowed their souls to become fragmented by this digital killing.
Yes there are calls to have games banned. Having worked in that industry I agree with this. This though is not enough. If games are banned those who have been playing will need help. They will need to help to become balanced humans. Help that can only come from having their broken souls healed. The war against souls is very real and very dangerous. It takes no prisoners. Next time your child wants the latest war or fighting game think about the affect it is having on his/her soul.

They tower over us yet we do not hear them....Or maybe we do...
A tree reaches deep into the ground and up again for light, and flowers leaves to clasp the suns rays into itself for nourishment. It is profoundly beautiful unto itself, perfect from its conception, but maybe it has a bigger purpose by giving all of life a messageA Message from the TreesBy Megan O’Connor
In all its gentle grace and stillness it communicates notice how peaceful life can be see how the sun nourishes all of us. It stands, swaying in a strong wind, leaves dancing.
Look closely and you will almost see them waving hello. It has witnessed many days gone by.
The tree renews itself with the changing of seasons. Trees give a gracious home for other living beings and is a kind servant to mother nature, and in return is rewarded with a long, life.
Yes, there are lessons to be learned from trees. The greatest of all can be seen between the leaves.
If one looks between the leaves, a matrix of infinite unique spaces can be seen, a place to contemplate eternity, a place to feel peace, a place to listen to the wisdom of the tree, a partner and reflection of the great spirit shared by all.
Our friends speak these wise truths in their being, which could be translated into a metaphor for human life.Live your purpose with grace and stillness of heart. Gathering light from above nourishes your core.
It is wise to sway in a strong wind. Know when to rest, regenerate and begin again fresh in the spring.
The space between things seen is where infinite creativity lives.
The wise ones tell us it is easy to see to eternity when reaching into an endless sky, which sooths the soul; or while reaching into the fertile grounds of life, rejoice in what is really important, a warm sun on your face while being grounded in mother earth.
The next time you drive by a group of trees, slow down. Watch the wind blowing them, see if you can feel the wind in your hair, and remember, light is your source.
This is the gentle message of the trees.

Pecking Order.
In the background Uluru looms over us. This sacred ancient rock stands out in all of its glorious redness. It is night. My owl animal guide has bought myself and my client here for healing. I have been giving this client Reiki treatments for some time now. This treatment I have added Shamanic Journeying. I know the Reiki is doing its work but let’s see what the spirit guides can do too.
She has been coming to me for treatment for a swollen uterus and fibrous growths in her uterus. Her doctor had told her she needs to have her uterus removed. She did not want this to happen and had asked if Reiki could help. I could not make any guarantees as to the outcome. So she had nothing to lose.
My owl has my client grasped in his claws. She is being held every so gently in those powerful claws. She is sound asleep. I am holding onto the end of one wing. We glide through the night sky. The vista that is before me is breath taking. I love the other worlds. Ahead I see the giant red rock looming out of the red soil. We are going to one of the most sacred places. Uluru. We dive earthwards. A small camp like fire is burning away as we touchdown. Standing in the light of the fire is an old man, he is waiting for us. His white beard and full head of hair stand out in stark contrast to the night sky. This is my tree spirit guide in human form. He takes my client from my owl guide and lays her on the ground next to the small fire. He starts to dance around her chanting.
Out of the gloom several Emus approach. They bend down and start to peck at my client’s abdomen. There is nothing on her for them to peck at. That when I realise they are healing her. In flies a crow. He has a small shaman drum with him and starts to beat the drum. The Old Man and the Emus are now dancing around the sleeping form of my client to the beat of the drum. The rhythm of their dance and the crows drumming has me joining in the dance. I am overcome with a feeling of elation. The red dirt beneath our feet feels ever so warm.
The Old Man calls a halt to the dance. He says we are finished and to leave now. I bow in thanks to him, the Emus and the Crow. My owl gathers up the still sleeping client. Off into the air we fly. All too soon we are back at the entrance to this otherworld. My client is awake now. We both thank my Owl and travel back up via my tree entry point.
I have spent about ½ hour doing Reiki on her abdomen while journeying. I finish off the Reiki treatment and explain what has just happened. We are both amazed by the whole event. I love journeying. You never know what is going to happen, where you will go or who you will meet. Yet all if this is done for our higher good.
Several months later my client gets the all clear from her doctor that the Uterus has gone back to its normal size. The fibrous growths are less. No operation is needed.
This was the first time I have mixed Reiki with Shamanic Journeying. It sure wont the be last. The thing that stands out from this for me was the fact that during the journey I did not do any healing. It was all done by the spirits.
Thank you to Ian Coate for allowing me to use his image in this blog past. To see more of his wonderful art work please see http://www.iancoate.com/index.html

We human beings are our own worst enemies at times.........
Of all the beings on this planet. Both seen and unseen. We human beings are our own worst enemies at times. We hate ourselves. We put ourselves down so much. We hurt ourselves so much. I have been reading through this blog 100 Day Walk With A Shaman Her update from Day 22 I think would help us all......
Day 22 – You are Perfect Just the Way You Are.
I have had the honor to sit at the feet of many of the worlds greatest teachers and one time I asked Lama Zopa Rinpoche, “ What is our main problem?” The lama answered, “It is that we think, "I am the worst person in the world. I am full of hatred, desire, and ignorance." These concepts are totally negative, and you have been carrying around this self pitying view all your life. Cry, cry, Fear, Fear, emotion, emotion. Obsessed with your own shortcomings, you put tremendous pressure on yourself. You punish yourself by regarding yourself as ugly and worthless. Other people may think you are beautiful, but still you project yourself as ugly.”
“Right now just stop whatever you are doing and visualize a beautiful blue light, which is like clear blue sky all around you. See yourself just being in this clear blue sky color with nothing else but the color blue around you. As you just experience this beautiful blue light notice how your dualistic thoughts start to break down. You no longer believe in those self deprecating dualities. They no longer exist, really. This radiant blue light helps us to touch reality, which is the most important thing in the world. This is no longer an fantasy world of projections and self deprecating thoughts and judgments. This place you are experiencing in this sky blue light is inner and outer reality. There is no self judgment in this place. Can you feel it? See yourself as a being of sky blue. You are perfect just as you are. You only need to realize it. “
Lama Zopa knows this truth and we need to know it too so that we can experience our own natural perfection.
Aho
