Elder Initiation
Invoking The Great Teacher Within
Note: This isn't to be initiated as an elder... it's to activate the Elder within you to access the wisdom, practices, & abilities therein. Read More Below.
One of the first initiations into being a Shaman is the Elder Initiation. This is a significant practice shared across traditions and cultures which invokes and activates the part of you containing the source wisdom, abilities and practices lying present but currently inactive within you. Through this initiation you activate and begin to gain access, cultivate and embody these now, in real-time.
You learn the Shamanic practices, meditations and rituals to embody The Elder Self and the techniques to intentionally manifest events, encounters, opportunities, and life experiences from this Self. It's a magical experience to witness thoughts become manifest as you hone these skills.
​
A Shaman in essence is one who is connected and can converse with the multi-faceted Being which manifest as all things. In this the Shaman has the ability to communicate and receive beyond the mere physical reality and is able to access knowledge and skills beyond one's personal knowing, is able to bring forth a thought or energy into the physical world and is able to receive the messages/medicine and/or signs within the world around you. It’s said Spirit is constantly communicating and Shamanism is a means of joining the conversation
​
Through this initiation you gain a heightened ability to access, converse and play with these subtle levels.
Initiation is an act of stepping out of a lesser or limited self and into a greater potential of who we are. It's a symbolic gesture of "now we've stepped through the gate we cannot go back" and hence find ourselves living in a more expansive, more able paradigm than before
​
It takes this kind of act for our psyche to fall into agreement and allow the shift to happen for otherwise we revert back to our limited mindsets
