Divination in Practice
The skilled practice of shamanic divination, the process of consulting the spirits for knowledge, is an essential aspect of shamanic healing and of bringing the wisdom of the helping spirits to bear on personal, local, and global issues.

The Shamanic Worldview: Everything is Alive™
The shamanic worldview underpins the ethical and effective practice of shamanism. Experiential
knowledge of this worldview leads to a profound awareness of the sacred nature of our world and an
awakening of compassion—resulting in a deep desire to relieve pain and suffering and restore balance
and harmony.
Using journeying and experiential shamanic methods, in this online workshop you will have the
opportunity to personally explore and experience the fundamental aspects of the shaman’s worldview:
• Everything is alive and has spirit
• Unity: We are part of, connected with, the totality of nature
• Independent spirituality—the shaman as “one who knows”
• The implications of these principles related to permission when doing shamanic healing and
divination
The workshop offered by Catherine Hughes consists of 7 hours of training. The cost of this workshop is $160 CDN.
PREREQUISITES: The Shamanic Journey: Pathway to Knowledge & Power (online) OR the in-person Basic Workshop, The Way of the Shaman; AND, Shamanic Divination in Practice (online)

Shamanism for Inspired Local & Global Change™
In these challenging times, shamanic work, when combined with ordinary reality knowledge and action, can make an immense contribution toward effective long-term solutions for community and global problems.

- Practice applying shamanic divination/journeying methods to the problem-solving process
- Use shamanic divination to gain insight into real-world issues you care about
- Examine ethical guidelines and issues of permission
- Explore possible ways to ethically bring the power of the compassionate spirits to our world
Participants must be able to successfully journey to contact at least one helping spirit from the Upper or Lower Worlds.
PREREQUISITES: 1. The Shamanic Journey: Pathway to Knowledge & Power (online) OR the in-person Basic Workshop, The Way of the Shaman; AND, 2. Shamanic Divination in Practice (online) OR any of the FSS in-person advanced weekend workshops.
