In my spirit writings, I use unconventional modern day writing materials. I use a wooden stick or sometime a sharpened chop-stick for my Shamanic Spirit Writings. The colours are chosen by the seeker and then placed onto a large board. The paper, usually my own handmade paper, or similar paper, with an even overlay of calm, accepting energy. I then carefully place the paper over the top of the paint.

My shaman Spirit pac, mine know as Da 'ar, is then asked, kindly and with honour and respect, to answer the questions given by the seeker. Spirit then writes the answers to the questions on the paper with the end of the chop stick, or wooden stick that has been sharpened.






Once the communication is lost or terminated by mutual agreement, only then the paper is peeled off the block and given to the seeker. It is also explained and information determined only after the seeker has read through it first. If there is any angelic-script, (see picture above for example) derived from the Angels, then that too is explained.

I am guided to accept the request from individual seekers. If you feel called that you have the need to ask Spirit for guidance, please do send me a message in the comment box.


What happens in the readings ....
In previous times, when my grandmother and her mother were in contact with Spirit and asking questions for seekers there were at least 4 people involved in the reading. The writing implement was poked through a basket. There is sand on a tray or sometimes just a hard surface. It is alway the very whitist sand, with a high level of crystals.
The surface that I use, which I find best for me is dark or gold, so that the word or letter can be made out clearly. Each letter is then written, or sometimes, a whole word. The word or letter was called out by one of the watching or trainee shaman.
The word or letter was then written down by the scribe. After the item has been successfully captured, the assistant will clear the sand to be flat and clear for the next transmission.
At the end of the session the paper was given to the seeker. Any questions were answered and the seeker gave a donation and went on their way.
I too was initially trained in the shamanic sand way of spirit writings and undertake these sittings when I have more time to give to the seeker. It is necessary to know that I only experience a partial possession/incorporation of my hand and of the side of my body that is being used by the Spirit making contact.
Personally, I prefer the chants of Buddhists monks before I undertake the spirit writings, I also cleanse and protect the area for a period of time before starting the sessions.
As always Namaste

The time is now!
Horses live in the present. They hold no grudges and bear no malice. We need to focus on the here and now, tomorrow hasn't happened yet and well, yesterday has been and gone. We can't change the way we have ridden in the past or the methods we have used to train our horses. We can however, move forward and use a better way, the way includes greater communication with our horses.
Horses are a great example of just that - being in the today, the now, its a gift that's why its called the present.



What about trust?

My own journey forced me to trust myself with my horse. In the departure of my physical prowess, losing my sense of balance and suffering with meniers dis-ease, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and dysphasia, I welcomed the arrival of faith and trust in my horse.

Leaving the old lessons behind, the military tradition of dealing with horses involving "pain". using pain a horse will only do so much, never trust or respect you. The shamanic Mother Earth belief systems is challenging, but gentle, using pressure and release as the reward. Pressure only and never pain.

Trust and respect is born from within, the internal workings of the mind. your horse needs an awakening to enable them to trust you as the herd leader.
Being the herd leader demands absolute commitment from you, such commitment to the point where only absolute trust and respect is required by your horse, it must become second nature to him between you and the outside world.
Through the ‘bush telegraph’ I am hearing stories everyday, eye witness accounts of the leap of faith horse owners are taking by trusting their join-up capability and "herd leading" their horses.

I've met riders that have never sat on their horses bare-back, never ridden their horses without the kitchen-sink in their mouths, never ever in a plain halter with no headstall/bridle.
I hear comments like "He will not listen to me if I don't have a bit in his mouth" and " She will just take-off if I don't have a saddle and bridle on" also my favourite one "I don't trust what my horse may do ..."
All these comments illustrate to me that the connection between horse and human is not complete. time has not been taken to "sack-out" or desensitize the horse. The manner and respect on the ground are not there, as such, more work needs to be done on the ground, before continuing from the saddle.

A negative attitude will do wonders for the horse-monster lurking in the mind becoming the thieves of time. Thinking of what could go wrong with your horse is not productive and seldom useful.



No more drama's
Many people actually like drama. When have you been part of a yard where there is one rider that has the worst biter, the worse rearing maniac, the worse bucking bronco and of course the worst uncontrollable speed-freek? Sound familiar? The horses have been conditioned, they act up and the rider or owner will reward them with "release of pressure" telling the horse that was the correct answer to the question (the pressure) and so they learn.
Respect and trust are safest for both horse and rider. I prefer to call teaching the respect and trust between the horse and rider partnership as "gentling" horses. Two eyes are better than two feet. We want those two eyes to be looking at you constantly. Couple that, with an ear or two in your direction and progress is being made. Add a little licking and chewing - then you're talking horse!

Make a plan to motivate yourself every day to get to know your horses personality and bridge the gap between negative thoughts with positive actions. There is no guarantee that both horse, rider or owner will respond quickly, changes to perception and the "old school" way of training horses takes time.
Speaking horse will make a large difference almost straight away. You are the only person who can determine the relationship between you and your horse.
If you are interested in discovering natural shaman way of horsemanship, post me a comment in order to discuss the fees for a visit to your yard.












































I do not want that to happen in my district here… so I am preparing for the future, with food gardens and meditation rooms…this is what I can do…. what can you do?
