Shamanic Sickness - the transition from Practitioner to Shaman
---
"For us, in our tradition, the shaman is controlled by the spirits, the shaman also controls the spirits. They no longer own themselves. For others, we believe it is the same, but will look different with each tradition. Each also uses different vehicles beyond the drum and rattle, including nature, plant spirits and ancestral groups collected around ceremony and ritual. For each, the experience AND expression is unique, but might align with a group/ceremony/ritual."
