Not all who claim the title of shaman are authentic; some are fake shamans, lacking the sacred initiation from Great Spirit, while others, known as evil shamans, misuse spiritual power for harm. For a path of true healing trust your gut and intuition to choose a shamanic practitioner who embodies integrity, aligns with Great Spirit’s guidance and whose authenticity resonates deeply with your soul. Here’s some ways to help you discern for yourself:
- Be 100% open to prayer & pray
- Be aware of signs
- Ask for guidance from source and the divine
- Ask for guidance from your soul / higher self / whole being
- Familiarise yourself with personality disorders, for example cluster B’s like Narcissistic personality disorder, histrionic personality disorder, antisocial personality disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, psychopathy
- Familiarise yourself with cognitive distortions like all-or-nothing thinking, overgeneralisation, entitlement beliefs, justification and moral licensing
- Interpret your dreams for meaningful messages from your subconscious and spirit guide team
Here’s two divination charts to help you discern the right shamanic practitioner for you. Feel free to download and print out. You can muscle test or use dowsing techniques with a pendant or rods to find the relevant messages for you from Great Spirit and your guide team. Listen to your intuition when discerning and interpreting the messages you get:
