Into the Unseen:

Shamanic Skills Apprenticeship Group

Fall 2024 

Online -

THIS PROGRAM IS CLOSED.

​

This program centers on working with helping spirits from a deeply animistic perspective, where humans are not necessarily the focus of the work.​

 

This program is for people who wish to learn or improve their shamanic/spiritwork skills, deepening the relationship with their own spirit help and learning how to work with various spirits. Participants will learn skills that help manage the psychic openness that comes with working with spirits, learn how to work more deeply with their own spirits as well as spirits that are available to all of us such as land spirits, spirits of the directions, etc.

​

Participants will be creating power objects with their spirit guides. These will be worked with in class.

​

Class group meetings will be twice a month, for 2 – 3 hours twice a month from 7:00 - 9:30/10:00 pm. This is six hours per month in-class time. Homework journeys will be given to be done on your own time.

​

Tuition is on a sliding scale fee of $150 - $250/month and includes email access to me and additional chats on Zoom. For local people, I may be able to offer local walks and hang out time.

​

Meeting day TBD

​

This program is by application only.  SSAG is closed for 2024. Please check back for next year's group!
