So, what I’ve always tried to do with this series is to help individuals awaken that shaman on the inside that they have forgotten culturally.
An important lesson here is about community. Many people think that the shamanic journey is an introspective, private one. And it is. To an extent.
You see, once the shaman has mastered his inner self, he can begin his truly great work, and start building bonds within a community. Now this social aspect of the shaman does not meaning telling everyone you’ve found God and you are completely right. Just the opposite really. The shaman should never force beliefs or ideals on others. They have their own shamanic journey that may be entirely different from yours, and that’s ok.
A shaman builds healthy bonds and relationships with the people he or she cares about. Shamanism is not solitary. You must go into the world and help. Make this a stronger place. Make this a better, cleaner place. Make this a spiritual place again. Our old Mother misses her children.
Use the green darts. Connect the dots.

I Listen.
I Travel.
I Remember.
Universal consciousness is only the long term goal.
