The Modern Shaman and What A Shaman Actually Does

Have you been confused as to what energetic work is actually doing? What about shamanism? What does a shamanic session entail and what’s it actually doing?

Before I can answer these questions I have to first get into the role of a shaman, their purpose, and why they do what they do. A shaman is someone who intervenes on the behalf of the community. They connect the human community to the cosmos. They act as spiritual lawyers. Basically, all of earth and its inhabitants are one ecosystem. So if humans are a part of the earth then why can’t we communicate with it just like we communicate with one another? What if we are not getting the rains we need to grow crops? What if droughts and floods are attacking our lands? Well, this is where the shaman comes in.

Shamans originally were spiritual lawyers. When something was off in the ecosystem, or the natural way of living that was established by many tribal cultures suddenly changed the shaman would journey into altered states of consciousness on behalf of the community and communicate with the spirit of the land, the animal spirits, or even ancestral spirits.

If weather wasn’t supporting the community or if new migration patterns were being fixed by animals which caused hunters to be less successful, then the community would look to the shaman for answers. The shamans are the voice of the community.

Now what is the role of the shaman today within modern culture?

The shaman today still does the exact same thing, we just don’t think of it in similar terms. Think about all the mental illness in the modern world. The mental illness doesn’t just drop from the sky, it’s a sign that culturally we are out of connection with our environment. We are out of connection with ourselves and the world around us. When mental disturbances come up the shaman will work on the individual energetically to assess all of his or her connections.

The shaman understands that the individual and community isn’t separate or isolated, he or she knows that an individual’s health is connected to the community and cosmos. The first thing a shaman does is check into the connections that are forming the independent being. He or she addresses those connections.

All the connections we form, mental, emotional, and spiritual are held together by an energetic framework. The energetic or subtle plane is where the shaman works so that an individual can get over certain physical, mental, and emotional ailments. The shaman knows that all of these layers have their true being on the energetic realm. If you want to fix them then you have to go to the source.

Have you ever met someone who has been to rehab over three times, had all the support they need, yet they still seem to never get over their addiction? Why is this? This is because the energy pattern of addiction is so deeply entrenched that it trumps any physical, mental, or emotional support. You need the subtle energetic support. You need to rewire the energetic patterns.

You can work on the subtle realm backwards, but it is slower. However, if you work physically, mentally, emotionally, and energetically then you’re eventually guaranteed success because you’ve taken care of everything at each level.

Every thought, emotion, and action creates an energetic blueprint. The more we do any of these things the deeper or more salient that energetic blueprint becomes. It gets coded into our DNA. In order to reverse this process or to rewrite that energetic blueprint you need someone who is energetically powerful. Someone who is energetically strong. This is the job of the shaman. To rewrite energetic processes that have etched there deeply into a human being, either through action in this life or of an ancestor within their genetic line.

You can have energetic codes within you that you didn’t write but rather they were passed down to you from your ancestors. This is what we refer to as karma.

Ever have those moments when you do something, but you don’t know why? That’s the past playing itself out. If you have some old energetic patterns that are no longer benefiting you then a shamanic session will do you good.

Deepest Blessings and Pranamams to you!
