𝙰 𝙹𝙾𝚄𝚁𝙽𝙴𝚈 𝙾𝙵 𝙶𝙴𝚃𝚃𝙸𝙽𝙶 𝙾𝚄𝚁 𝙿𝙾𝚆𝙴𝚁 𝙱𝙰𝙲𝙺 // In shamanism, power essentially means life force! A weakened life force can result in loss of personal power or Power-loss. Today, we will look at the later.

𝙿𝙾𝚆𝙴𝚁 𝙻𝙾𝚂𝚂 occurs when we cut ourselves off from nature and Mother Earth, disconnecting and unplugging ourselves from the larger energy grid of each other and of the more-than-human.

DISCONNECTION FROM NATURE IS A MODERN DIS-EASE
Whilst indigenous tribes understood the dangers of Power-loss, they rarely suffered from it, because they lived immersed in nature! Disconnection from nature is a largely modern-day thing. It began with our adoption of what the author Daniel Quinn has described as “totalitarian agriculture” around 11,000 years ago (the “Neolithic revolution”), when we moved from knowing we were part of the land, to instead seeing ourselves as owning the land.

HEALING POWER-LOSS
Practical ways to heal this disconnect and “rewild our souls” is at the very heart of both shamanism and animism, and include:
🍃 SPENDING TIME IN NATURE
🍃 SHAMANIC EXPLORATIONS OF THE LOWER-WORLD
Connecting back to the real Lower-World, underneath the layers of separation and distortions laid over it by modern ‘civilisation’.
🍃 POWER ANIMAL RETRIEVAL
Bonding with Power Animal (our most important connection to the more-than-human!).
🍃 WORKING WITH A HUMAN LOWER-WORLD GUIDE
Someone who can teach us what it is to be an animist human, living as part of nature, and not separate from it.
🍃 COMMUNICATING WITH NATURE
Just spending time in nature is good for us, but shamanism goes further. Rather than just being in nature, shamans communicate with nature. Indeed, doing that this was (and is) very much one of the roles of the shaman – to connect with nature and be its advocate and voice, and be the intermediary between humans and the rest of nature.

Shamanism has practical ways of doing this, ways that work, and in learning shamanism, you can learn to do this too!
