Shamanic Witchcraft Classes and Apprenticeship
What is a Shamanic Witch?
The few authors that do write about Shamanic Witchcraft tend to compare the definition of Shaman – an individual who is able to walk between the worlds of the mundane and the extra-ordinary – and to use this ability to gather knowledge and facilitate healing – to how Witches also work spiritually and magickally. Witches have been called many names over the course of history, such as ‘saga’ in Latin (meaning=wise one), ‘weik’ and ‘weid’ in Proto-Indo-European (meaning bender or twister of power, and seer and knower). The Witch has traditionally always worked with the spirit world and therefore, is also able to transverse between the worlds.
To me, being a Shamanic Witch means that I work my craft with my Spirit People. My spells, healing work, and decisions I make in my personal life – are all done with their advice and assistance. I fully believe that no spirit in a human body can shift things on a spiritual level – we need the Spirit People to do that for us. However, we do have an important and necessary role – we are the Conduit necessary for the Spirit People to do their work effectively. Stepping into this role requires dedication, practice, and a willingness to listen, do the work, make mistakes, and learn from them. My passion in life is to assist women becoming Priestesses of their Own Power.
