Woman as Shaman and Mystic

Great GrandMother Coyote suggests you
turn your mind inside out today and let all the
junk and clutter fall out and clank onto the floor.
Be willing to tell yourself how silly you are to
believe the crazy lies you tell yourself. Realize
that any and all thoughts which cross you mind
are only dancing cooties which have a very short
life span; ah, like 5 seconds, and then just dis-
appear into nothingness. Unless, of course, you
bring them back and hold onto them with a
stranglehold that causes anxiety. There is a
difference between natural concerns where
discernment needs to be applied and using
disastrous thoughts to harm one's self. If you
are engaged in the latter Great GrandMother
Coyote suggests you stand on your head and shake
until these cooties fall out of you. Run a marathon
until you are too tired to focus on these self
punishment thoughts or watch several of Great
GrandMother Singing Wolf's Ceremonies until her
Medicine Soundings and Dancings have transported
you into an altered state of consciousness where
thinking cooties cannot exist.

Spin dancing is a great mind cootie blower
as well as whole body shaking for a long period
of time. The trick is to blow up and apart the
dreadful obsessive compulsive thinking patterns
so you can breathe again and engage in healing
and recovery processes. You can do all of this with
Great GrandMother Coyote's help, support, and
guidance. Just realize that she will tickle, tease,
and make jokes of your brain cooties just because
that's the sort of Heyokah Shaman she is, and
darlings she is the 'creme de la creme' of Heyokah.


The Wisdom Teachings of Jamie Sams
I would like to diverge from my usual discourse here
and quote some wise Medicine from a Great Medicine
Woman - Jamie Sams. We are all so lucky to have her
gifting us with her wonderful and potent Medicines.
Here is her divination from her Sacred Path Cards
(The Discovery of Self Through Native Teachings) for
the Whirling Rainbow card:

"If the Whirling Rainbow has appeared, you are being
asked to remove any type of discord from your life in
order to grow. Don't feed the negativity. Look at any
lessons being presented at this time, learn from them,
then focus your attention on creating new beauty and
abundance in your life. Do not allow yourself to be
caught in the quicksand of petty tyrants. A true, worthy
opponent will present lessons to make you grow beyond
any high drama and into a sense of unity with the Self.
Other petty tyrants are not worthy of your attention or
your energy. You need not take on the issues of others
when the discord is due to their lack of unity within
themselves.
Encircle any discord with the Whirling Rainbow of Peace
and consider the unity you have with Great Mystery when
you keep your eye on the goal and your feet on the Sacred
Path of Beauty. Remember that any challenges to unity
are equal to your ability to overcome them."

Great GrandFather John Thunder Red Cloud

Your urban brain configurations prevent the powers
of the imagination to regenerate and invigorate your
body and mind. Locked in and locked down into
ordinary translations of your self, your environment,
people, and all the Earth Mother's creatures means
that you are incapable of witnessing and partaking
of 90% of the extraordinary which is present and
vital. Recognizing that your urban brain is always
looking for one dimensional answers and definitions
will go a long way in your learning to perceive the
90% which you are deaf, dumb, and blind to. Always
seek to deepen your perceptions of everything,
everything. Also, discontinue translating your bodies
reactions and interactions on a daily basis in
ordinary ways. Seek to comprehend ultimately why
your body, both physical and emotional, is reacting.
The goal is to experience within your senses the
invisible alchemical and electromagnetic interactions
of your bodymindspirit. Then you will acquire a more
accurate diagnosis and you will be shape shifted by the
knowledge.


Great GrandMother Hawk suggests you influence
your advancement today in the directions which will
reward and fertilize your creativity. Write an ode to
you praising your gifts and abilities. Telling yourself
how much you love you and respect you and admire
all of your marvelous wisdom. Wonder with pride
about your beautiful body and sing all of your praises
both of the inside of you and the outside of you. Don't
think about it while you are writing it, just do it free
flow writing, rather quickly, and as spontaneously as
possible. When you are finished have someone dear
to you speak or sing it to you and let your own ode
shape shift you into who you really are as a divine
sacred being. (You could sing it to yourself and ask
your Great GrandMothers to be your audience that
way they can imbue your shape shifting with extra
extraordinary alchemy.)

Kashta Tua Tai Ma & Da

My elders counsel me that everything must be
viewed, engaged with, and learned from as it
is passing through your mind & body. Make
friends, they tell me, with all experience. Pain,
struggle, anger, happiness, turn them inside
out, upside down and around and around as
you are in the experience of them, both while
awake and when sleeping. Especially, they
counsel me to make an ally of depression
because if you do not it will consume you and
eat away your strength. It blinds you to reality
and is like an infection within your psychy that
will eventually consume your existence. Go to
them, they say, go to the Bird Tribes and the
Four Leggeds and see them, really see them.
Listen to their songs and learn to understand
their languages. Then you will become whole
and at peace.


Great GrandMother Crow is sitting in a tree
cawing down at you today. She is telling you
to wake up to the magic of your life. She is
telling you how to look for inner magical
discoveries within all of your life's happenings
and silences. Do not wait she proclaims, gaze
into the deep blackness of her feathers and see
your opportunities to create with the magical
alchemies of life. Allow your soul to be your
strength and stop pretending you are only
a human body. Great GrandMother Crow is
cawing you back to life primordial are you
willing to listen and understand?

Great GrandMother Turtle

She sits on the bottom of the water in a pool
created by Mother Earth. She does not wait
or think about what to do next she only exists.
Every fiber in her being knows this is where she
needs to be in these multiple moments. When
it is time to breathe air again she slowly with
turtle grace walks to the shore. There she
settles upon the mud and dreams. If you are
lucky enough to come upon Great GrandMother
Turtle as she is on the shore dreaming quietly
sit beside her and ask her telepathically if she
will take you on her back into the DreamTime.
If she says yes then go to the water pool and
lay on your back and float. The water is the
bridge from your ordinary brain consciousness
to the DreamTime extraordinary reality. Vision
Great GrandMother Turtle swimming over to
you and see that now she is large enough to carry
you on her back. Don't hesitate, climb on, and let
her take you.


Great GrandFather Sky Gecko Dream Talker

When you are about to have great breakthroughs
within your psychic, mental, emotional, and
spiritual bodies you will experience a severe
agitation. In all likelihood you will want to put
it onto doubt, fear, or anxiety due to limitation
either about yourself or about the exterior
environment. Put your self at ease by getting into
your internal boat and row you into your soul
consciousness. There your divine connections
which are primordial to you (have always been
there and will always be) will remind and teach
you about the subtle perceptions which you are
missing. Don't stay too long in the ordinary
severe state of agitation. It will fry your nervous
system and make you ill. Heal your self of this
condition and your life will sing new harmonious
songs as you are comprehending your transform-
ations.


Great GrandMother Sophia Meara

The void is a womb, a home, where the Great Mother
nourishes you and where you are able to develop
and grow. Rather than be unconscious within the
void womb of the Great Mother you can choose to
be awake and actively interact with her. It is all
a matter of perception.

Great GrandMother Snake Eagle

Great GrandMother Snake Eagle's eyes vision
into multiple realities and sees what most are
not capable of seeing. Able to eat invisible waves
of kundalini energies whole she is a conduit for
transitions and transformations of the enlight-
enment kind. Soaring high above the Earth
Mother's Body she can touch down upon the
highest mountain and within the lowest valley
with ease and grace; Great GrandMother Snake
Eagle is a Medicine Dancer in flight.

Great GrandMother Snake Eagle will not visit you
unless your development is at the stage where you
can handle 'not of the urban world's' visions and
alchemies. You must be developed in visitations
into the Spirit Realms with your Shamanic & Mystic
Spirit Families and have survived many deaths. Her
Medicines are so very potent and if you are not a
progressive shamanic & mystic warrior of the Spiritual
Realms you will be burned by her light. If you know
within your heart you are of the GrandMother Snake
Eagle lineage then study with your Great GrandMothers
so you may prepare for encounters with Great Grand-
Mother Snake Eagle. Go through your initiations with
fortitude and show your complete commitment by
staying the course no matter what. Then one day she
will come for you and your multiple existences will
be forever shape changed.


Great GrandMother Mary Valkyrie

If you are an urban born woman within your psyche
is a Great Door. This Great Door is ornate in the
extreme and you love this door. You guard this door
with your life but you believe that you must not open
it or grave and horrendous events will happen. So
you postpone, delay, and sabotage advancement
towards creative brilliance beyond the known. As
long as you stay on the right side of the Great Door
you are safe; or so you say to yourself, over and over
and over and over again. I have a message for you
today, are you ready? If you are willing to turn and
look at your Great Door within yourself you will see
that there is a peep-hole at eye level which you can
safely look through and assess, at least some, of what
is beyond your Great Door. Do you dare? Are you a
brave & bold, take charge kind of woman? Yes, you
are, go ahead, you can do it.

Great GrandMother Swan & Her
Primordial Medicines

There are shamanic & mystical primordial feminine
ways to awaken your beautiful power deep within
your soulheart when you are in primary illness due
to hormonal transitions. In order to discover &
recovery these Feminine Ways ask Great Grand-
Mother Swan to swim you into the depths of you.
Drawing upon the resources of your authentic &
beautiful powers will feed you while enduring the
physical, emotional, and psychological fires of
hormonal transition. Great GrandMother Swan
teaches that we must connect to the heavy and
difficult emotions that plague us as our bodies
transition into crone. Within these dark & heavy
energies are knowledge about how to shape shift,
how to source primordial feminine alchemies, and
how to be a real woman within a construct world.
So, rather than the environment dictating and
influencing your experience you decide and create
your living life between worlds.


Great GrandFather William Rice Buffalo Heart

You have to make a bridge between your brain's thinking
mind which is in ego need attachment and your inner
sanctuary. What you use to make this bridge must be
held in sacred respect within your heart and not
influenced by cultural belief systems. Your body, your
mind, and your spirit must come into peace with each
other and sing songs of harmonious rhythms together.
In order to come together in these sacred ways you must
allow them to be out of tune while searching for the
appropriate sounds which will bring harmony. Delight
in the dissonance as well as the on-key sounds and you
will discover wisdom in many colourful shades.

Great GrandMother Bear Medicine

Choosing to live only at skin level has it's
consequences. Woman being unable or
unwilling to access from the depths of her
unconscious is left to wonder chaos without
the ability to co-create order out of it and
make gorgeous creations. Usually, the direct
masculine approach is not, to say the least,
the best way to approach awakening to your
internal resources within your unconscious.
For womankind it is through and with her
emotional body and it's multiplicity of energies
which guide her into the depths of Her.

Many women upon observation have incorporated
tightly within the fabric of their psyche masculine
thinking systems, traits, and behaviors which are
contrary to their true nature. But due to survival
circumstances this became the necessary approach
in order to live. Great GrandMother Bear is a wise
counsel to seek out in order to help you reconfigure
your internal systems to unravel what is not organic
to your bodymindspirit's systems. This way you can
easily dance within the depths of your unconscious
as woman and source unlimited wealth.


the trails of my heart always lead me home
no matter how broken aching and sore my
feet guide me home without a map without
a word without a thought I am home
