Thank you for you video. Very nice to hear someone who went through the crisis. I'm in my third year of the shamanic crisis. I was suffering from childhood PTSDs obviously all my life but my calling began at 38 when my wife suddenly left me and after losing my highly paid job. What followed was a cascade of events I could not explain. Depression, mental insitution, burnout, physical and emotional pain on a daily basis, panic atacks. But along all the suffering came some new abilities for example clearvoyance. It takes a lot of time and patience to cleanse all the pain but the longer it lasts the powerful your abilities of healing later will be. Future shamans are often born with a mark - an additional finger either on hand or foot but I was born in the former UDSSR where shamanism was forbidden, so my 6th finger was cut off after birth. I am still struggling to find my heritage as I have German, Russian and indigeneous roots living now in Berlin. Best, Andreas
Thank you for sharing. I was also born with birth defects, and yes many shamanic cultures look at that as being marked as a shaman. Our wounds can become medicine, and it sounds like you're on your path. It is vary hard - the shamanic path is not an easy one, but it's worth it.
I don’t have extra body parts but I did get burned with a crescent moon on my leg as a child and it’s guided me a long the way. I’ve been going through this crisis now for the last 3 years. I’m aware of what it is going on and have no clue what to do with it. I’m just letting it unfold as it may. I can’t work a normal job anymore so I’ve pretty much just stayed in crisis mode this whole time. My life has been taken from me and shaken up and I’ve lost so much in the process, including my sanity most days. I don’t have a choice in this, the spirits have chosen me. Trust me, I’ve tried every thing to go back and be “normal”, I’ve pleaded and begged.. and it keeps unfolding. At times I feel like a child kicking and screaming because I don’t want to leave the playground. All I hear is “answer the call” literally everywhere, signs, on the tv with people speaking, I see it in magazines, it’s a non stop forced path. I should feel incredibly honored and embrace this but there’s a part of me who knows she cannot share this with family or most people in my life. So I’ve become reclusive and isolated. I have no clue how to shamanize. I just listen to the directions the spirits give me and do what is asked and I’m exhausted!
