Listing of Global Shamanic Circles
In our travels from Alaska to Israel, Mongolia to California,
let us connect with shamanic circles everywhere, drumming,
rattling, singing praise to the spirits of the homelands,
journeying to the ancestors who await our visit, building
harmonious and healthy relationships with other beings
all around Mother Earth. This is the web of life. We are
awakening and exploring a global shamanic community in
the New Millennium. |

Our group was started just over a year ago by Monica Tripani. We are
an open group, welcome to all new members, and welcome all from other
groups. We drum every Monday night from 7pm to 8:30pm. We also drum at
other times. Last year we organized an International drumming for peace
on the Summer Solstice, June 21 at 7pm on both sides of the St.Claire
River between Canada and the U.S.A. There were over 300 Participants.
We are organizing again this year and would
like to have participation in each time zone
at 7pm Thursday June 21, Summer Solstice. It
would be nice to see drumming right across North
America at 7pm in each time zone. Hoping you
can pass the word along and help in our small
way to bring peace throughout the World.

LONDON Open
Drumming Group
The London Open Drumming Group was set up in June
1997. We meet every month in Vauxhall, London. Our
group's aim is to provide a safe and sacred environment
for people to practise core shamanic techniques:
we work with drum and rattle, with dance and song
and of course with the shamanic journey to the Spirit
World. We are a space for newcomers to shamanism
to develop their shamanic work.
We have created both somewhere to work with serious
issues, to develop this path we walk with our spirits,
and a relaxing environment where we can talk about
our shamanic experiences with other practitioners.
Members of the group are expected to be responsible
for themselves, and it should be emphasised that
this is not a therapy group.
All members of this email group are able to attend
as they have either attended a basic workshop, or
have worked shamanically with someone known to the
organisers. As a minimum attendees should have attempted
an Upper World journey, a Lower World journey and
to journey for another person.
Please bring rattle, a scarf, something to sit/lie
on, and a packedlunch. We ask for £5 towards
the cost of the space and tea/coffee.The nearest
tube and train is Vauxhall station.
Members are expected to contribute to one meeting
per year. This cantake many form such as a journey
you have always wanted to do, a ritual, a theme
for the day . Please contact Karen or David with
your ideas or activities. It would be useful if
you could let one of us know if you are coming-
that way we can plan the day more effectively and
alert you to any homework that you may need to bring.Please
find below the revised dates of the London Open
Drumming group.Please note the changes to April
and May. "Meets on the second Saturday
of each month. Each time we meet has a theme -
recent ones have included healing, artwork and
storytelling. "

work with Drum; work with sending healing and power;
work with supporting one another on this path of
Life.

Earth Blessings to You All!
I remember a world where the crash of ocean
waves carries the voice of our Mother,
the soft light of the moon is Her gift to us,
and every living being is my relative.
I remember a world in which the call of an
owl, the flight of a heron, and the sound of
the wind through the trees have meanings too
deep to tell.
I remember a world where dreams run deep,
life runs slow, and eternity
unfurls itself on a spiral.
I remember...

PORTUGAL
Lisbon and Oporto
The Karneyos Drumming and Ritual Circle
Our circle is based in the hedge-ride shamanism
which is an application of the "core shamanism" techniques
in the context of ancient and ecstatic witchcraft.
We treasure the emphasis on the supernatural
context of the German and Celt religiosity, but
encourage every member to follow their own path
according to their connection with the spirits.
Our circle's work is based on sharing and learning
from each others personal experiences. We meet
once a month in one of each member's Place of
Power and practice ritual ceremonies, drumming
and healing techniques. Our circle's name comes
from the Hispanic Divinity Carneios, or Karneyus,
mostly know among the Celtic cultures as Cernunnos
or Karnayna, the name of the esoteric project
that tutors this shamanic circle. We do take
in consideration the study of our ancestor's
beliefs and their cults and thus embrace not
only what our atavic vision brings us from times
long gone, but also what came to be reminiscent
in Lusitanian cults and practices.
In case you are considering visiting us and
taking part in one of our monthly
gatherings, please contact me by phone or through
email. Contact: Melusine,
phone: +351 962570160, or email:Melusine@projectokarnayna.com We will be most glad to answer your questions
and enlighten you a bit further
about our Circle.

SPAIN TARRAGONA,
CATALUÑA
Shaman Group Therapy: Energetic Alignment
Energetic alignment is a therapy that takes its
origin from the shaman tribes in Amazonia and that
adapted its cure technique to the western world,
getting rid of a few of traditional rituals such
as absorbing plants for example. We all vibrate
to a determined sequence of which the Universe is
responding by pairing us off with people or situation
which frequency is similar to ours. Doubts, fears
and contradictory objectives take away from our
experience field what we really wish, what is really
good for ourselves. The shaman channels and incorporates
in his energetic camp those low frequency vibrations,
and with the help of the spiritual dimension, send
it back to us enlightened and cured, helping us
to harmonize our own life.
2 Brazilian shamans, Carlos Henrique Alves and
Leticia Tui come to Spain every 2 or 4 months
to help people bring harmony to their life. They
organize what is called in Spanish: "rueda
de cura" best translated as "wheel of
Cure" which gathers a group of people who
gets treated and actively participate to the shaman
treatment. The group therapy is opened to anyone.

SWEDEN Malmoe/Lund
Hi,
We are a little group in the south part of Sweden,
i. e. Skane, and we have been working together for
about two years. We try to mix together core shamanism
with our native knowledge of herbal and spirit work.
We don't do workshops, because we're still learning
ourselves. The group meets on unregular basis but
always on every third month. We work a lot in the
deep forests of our country but also in municipal
areas depending of the occasion and type of work.
The group is open to guests or newcomers but you
should have a basic understanding of shamanism.
Welcome to join the group! Contact: Stig,
phone: 070-662 10 88, or email: stigbertil@telia.com

ph: (907) 229.4216
Our school provides the best instruction, training,
and life experience available in Alaska for those
who enjoy Wilderness Adventure / Ecological Stewardship
Projects / & Documentary Production. We accomplish
this by blending indigenous wisdom such as Shamanism
with the merging fields of video • computer
• & telecommunications technology.
This Mystery School is open to all. We especially
welcome those who share a respect for all living
creatures and are interested in living sustainably
and symbiotically with nature and people. Our
vision is seeing people doing the work they love
and sharing the highlights with our local and
global community.
The Alaska Wilderness School mission is bringing
people and nature together. Wilderness Adventure
/ Ecological Stewardship / & Documentary Production
are the primary ways that we experience this.
Survival / Holistic Living / & Sustainable
Development are three major objectives. Our long-term
goal is Higher Education & Deep Ecology for
Economic Prosperity.
"In a healthy society, economy always follows
ecology, and education precedes them both."
-Ken Carey, VISION
There are no requirements for membership though
there are several different levels of particiapation.
Some are free, others require a small fee to offset
costs. Everyone is encouraged to review the following
three ancient forms of wisdom for humanity that
are the basis for the Alaska Wilderness School
and all that we do. These include: The Golden
Rule / The Four Agreements (Toltec People) / and
the Hawaiian Principles which may be found on
our website: AlaskaWildSchool.com.
These are simple guidelines for freedom, getting
along well with others, and developing direct,
personal experience and connection between Spirit
/ Self / & Nature.
The Alaska Wilderness School is dedicated to
sustainable development of education & ecology
for a prosperous economy. The administration and
operation of this school are based upon the best
indigenous wisdom and modern technology available.
Learning, experiencing, and sharing the way of
the Shaman are integral to nearly every aspect
of the what we do. Our goals include providing
the instruction, hands-on training and resources
necessary for people to do the work they love
while earning a decent living, particularly in
ways that are beneficial to people, animals, plants,
trees, and ecosystems large and small.
