ALIGNING
WITH THE FOUR WORLDS
any
of us are seeking to align ourselves with our Higher Selves.
How we experience this quest may be different for each of
us. For some, it is the desire to seek the grace and ease
that come with being "in the zone," that peak performance
place. For others, it is a longing to find a deeper meaning
to life, the search for new riches. Then there are those who
stalk the mystical. This may be an unquenchable thirst for
a connection with their Creator and all of their relations
to Grandmother Earth.

Many
of us are also seeking to live our dreams. This may be a process
of remembering or creating our dream through aligning with
our Higher Self or higher purpose. In the language of author
Caroline Myss, Ph.D., this would be called your sacred contract.
Achieving this purpose may involve letting go of past illusions
and old beliefs which no longer serve you, or breaking limiting
contracts which tie you to the past and drain your energy.
Shamanic
Coaching help release the old and activate the
new. From our past limitations, we birth a new alignment,
which incorporates the natural to the sacred.
For further
information, please refer to The
Natural and Sacred Alignment of Consciousness,
a white paper about Aligning with the Four Worlds.
The
Medicine Wheels
As a guide to achieving higher alignment, we use Medicine
Wheels to learn about all of our "relationships."
The wheels teach us that we are part of a larger cosmos and
what effects this larger cosmos has on us. Knowing how these
aspects influence us allows us to elicit their energies in
our healing. In the tradition of Shamanic Coaching, we incorporate
these wheels and several dozen more to guide us through the
magic of shamanism.
Four
Directions:
This is the basic medicine wheel with all four directions
represented. This wheel is the basis of all other wheels,
meaning that every other wheel will lie over this wheel.

Elemental:
This wheel shows us where each element sits and its influence
on us. It is important to understand how Shamanic Coaching
is based on the complete involvement of the four elements
and the five aspects. During any given session, all of the
aspects can be addressed. For a whole shift to a new level,
all aspects must shift. Often a ceremony is a catalyst for
change and healing.

Four
Hills of Life:
Here we see the path we travel through life. Each direction
represents a time in our lives when traditionally we would
experience a rite of passage to mark the transition into a
new way of being. When these initiations do not occur, we
feel incomplete on some level. We automatically and often
unconsciously look for a substitute, or we repress the unmet
need. Some of the work we do with Shamanic Coaching is to
create the missed initiations through the use of ancient ceremonies.

Milky
Way Choreographers of Four Directions Wheel:
Built on the Elemental Wheel, this wheel shows us what drives
or controls each of the directions.
