Shaman
A servant of the sacred, the Shaman - medicine man, priest, healer, cures ills of all kinds. Uses power in the service of others. Points the way towards being and becoming. Seeing all creation as the invisible Great Spirit made manifest, the Shaman can bring into being desired changes for the benefit of us all. Thus, the power of the Shaman is seen as magical. The Shaman holds the key to Truth and, knowing death as a rebirth, passes on the Knowledge through myth. Through the power of shape-shifting the Shaman may identify with a creature, an element or a form. So, with the sense of being some Other, a fresh perspecive may be gained. The Shaman within awaits to be awakened, to set us on Life's path with a light heart and a positive mind. For remember - the Ancient Ways will endure while just one believer survives.
