13 Moons Shamanic Wisdom
The Celtic Tradition is one of cycle and reflection. The Wolven Way Shamanic Tradition is concerned with a more insightful and intuitive relationship with the observed universe and all aspects of that universe - animal, human, environmental, geographical, spiritual, psychological and imagined. By tuning into this relationship our lives become a more balanced and peaceful journey.
The 13 Moons is a Shamanic Wisdom Course underpinned by the Wolven Path Shamanic Tradition. The aim of the course is to open and connect students to a deeper understanding of living in a Shamanic way and in relationship with the world around them. This course will not and cannot make anyone a Shamanic Practitioner or Shaman. The course is intended for personal awareness, healing and becoming.
The student will learn about the Celtic Shamanic principles that hold this balance and the levels of consciousness that open a deeper communicative relationship with the world around them – opening an awareness of the qualities of the four elemental energies that will focus and empower their lives. It will connect them to the Wisdom and teachings of the world around them as guided by the energies of the 13 moons.
Students will experience the basics of otherworld ‘travel’, the availability of spiritual support and unlock the doorway to developing their own basic psychospiritual skills and awareness.
This course of wisdom will open the student’s life to a less stressful path, an appreciation of spiritual metaphor, the importance of ritual in day to day life and introduce the concept of spiritual healing and a re-sacrilisation of their lives, by engaging them with the cycles of life and the lunar seasons.
The lessons will include guided visualisations, interactive spiritual experiences, basic Shamanic Journeying, storytelling, and practical applications for both self work and to include in work with others.
Each student will be assigned a mentor to support the learning.
The mentor can be used for clarification of processes, guidance to understanding, and support with journeying and will give appropriate feedback to assist the student’s growth.

Although the course is over the 13 moons, some students may not be able to work at the same speed as others. The Moons follow a traditional Cycle; each moon preceding the next and following the one before. To obtain the fullest wisdom of the course it is best to come to each moon in sequence. That said so long as all 13 moons are addressed in sequence 2 calendar years from registration, students will not need to re-register.
Upon completion of the 13 Moons wisdom study, completing students will receive a certificate of 13 Moons Wisdom.
The cost of registration is $150.00 cdn. and sll fees are donated to the work of the Sacred Circle of Great Mystery Society.
