"If we are victorious in any way we don't have anyone to whisper in our
ear that our victories are fleeting. Shaman-sorcerers, however, do have the
upper hand; as beings on their way to dying, they have someone whispering in
their ear that everything is ephemeral. The whisperer is Death, the infallible
advisor, the only one who won't ever tell you a lie."
Don Juan Matus to Carlos Castaneda, "The Active Side of
Infinity"
Shamanism is the spiritual practices of ancient
civilizations and cultures. Shamanism is the oldest healing tradition in the

THE SABBATS By Gordon Ireland
The continuous circle seemingly had no beginning or end, thus signified that as
one cycle ended another began eternal life. The seasons of the year were
thought to be part of this cycle. The names of the four seasons date back to
pre-Christian times: 1) Earrach for "Spring," 2) Samhradh for "Summer," 3)
Foghara for "Harvest" which refers to Autumn, and 4) Geamhradh for "Winter."....App

Welcome to Earth Shamans School
As you know, the subject of this course is Shamanism but, we will touch on a lot
more than that. Shamanism is a craft and a way of life, not a religion. It can
be practiced anytime, anywhere because shamans work with their minds, bodies,
and with whatever nature provides. The true nature of shamanism is that while
you are learning the craft you heal yourself and, as you heal the self, you also
heal others. Learning takes place everywhere; not just in the classroom but from
friends, animals, books, spirit guides and life itself. (These lessons are
NO
