Ceremonies helped our ancestors and their communities survive and cope with change. In her book Ceremonies , shamanic teacher Sandra Ingerman bridges the gap between ancient ceremonies and our contemporary needs with inspiring information, stories, and practical tools for your own ceremonies. By tapping into the sacred power of ceremonies, you have one of the oldest and most effective tools at your disposal to transform both yourself and the world.

For this book, Sandra Ingerman drew on her decades of experience with shamanic work and ceremonies in particular. She points out which elements make a ceremony powerful, such as setting the intention, choosing the right place, gathering and preparing objects, and how to deal with the unexpected.

How to let go of your daily worries and create a space where magic can happen. How to work alone, in a group or remotely with virtual ceremonies. How to meet spirit helpers and work with them, the elements, the natural world, your ancestors and the creative energy of the divine.

Attention is paid to all kinds of ceremonies, such as ceremonies for important events in your life - a wedding, birth, naming, coming of age, death, dignified closure and a new start. As well as ceremonies for restoring energetic balance, blessing and letting go of limiting thoughts.

Sandra Ingerman also shares how to see your life as a ceremony, how to infuse your entire life with ceremonial work, from planting a garden to bringing new energy into your home or office and helping to heal our planet.

'Ceremonies' is not only a manual, but also a source of inspiration for creating original ceremonies that fit your own needs and those of your community. If you perform a powerful, successful ceremony for yourself, the principle of unity ensures that this is not only healing for yourself, but that all that lives is healed and evolves.

Ideal as inspiration for making SoulCollage® cards.
