SHAMANISM is a
very broad and deep type of magick that spans the globe and all imaginable
types of religious environments. Shamans are sometimes embedded within the
dominant religious framework, or may work apart from it or even against it.
Regardless of the tradition, shamanistic techniques are similar. The shaman
goes into a trance state that could be called astral projection, into the Unseen
World to interact with spiritual beings there to either receive information,
undergo teaching or initiations or undertake actions in the subtle realms that
then are believed to affect change in the consensual reality.
There are a number of tools in the shaman's medicine bag. Entheogenic plants
such as mushrooms, peyote cactus, Ahahuasca, and alcohol are also well known
"fast lanes" to shamanic experience.
Less perilous to mind and body of the shamanic practitioner are the use of
rhythm, drums or rattles, in a really fast beat, to induce trance state, and
the aid offered by Spirit Guides, variously interpreted to be ancestral
spirits, mythical beings, faerie co-walkers, totem animal guides, or angel
guardians. The use of mood-setting, set-altering incenses and oils will be well
known to the Natural Magick Practitioner.
