  • The shamanic fire ceremony is a simple and yet powerful way to make positive changes in your life.
    Every shamanic ceremony starts with creating a sacred space by facing each of the cardinal directions, the earth and the heavens in this way:
    In the South we express gratitude for the help of all healers, then the West is gratitude for the help of all stewards of the earth, the North is for the wisdom keepers, and the East is for the visionaries. Then we give gratitude to Mother Earth for taking our waste and heavy emotions and mulching it for us, and for all her stones, plants, animals and humans that give us what we need - food, shelter, clothing, and certain characteristics like the decisiveness of a cat. Then we thank the Sun, Moon, and Stars and One Source or Great Spirit for giving us all we need to co-create our reality here in the theater of life.
    The fire ceremony then proceeds by chanting a simple Native American chant from the West Coastal Tlingit tribe aided by a rattle or drum in front of a fire. The chant calls upon the water spirits of the Earth to prepare us to get "up to speed" with the fire so that it won't burn us, but instead help us. The chant is below.
    While chanting for as long as you like, we hold a stick or any burnable object and think of all that we are ready to let go of, like impatience or other limiting patterns in our life, and all that we are ready to ask for, like better health or relationships, work or resources, and use our breath to blow each one into the stick. We then place the stick into the fire, and run our hands through or near the fire three times to bring it to our belly, our heart, and our head - to represent right action, feeling and thought respectively. We then finish the chant for a few rounds or as long as you like, and then close the sacred space by expressing gratitude to the four direction and Earth and Heavens once again.
    Please keep in mind that there is now "wrong" or "right" way to do this ceremony, as it is the intent that your bring to it, and the fun you have with that matters the most.
    Here is the chant that is repeated over and over as much as you like, and it is called a vocable, meaning the spelling is not important:
    Neechee Tie Tie
    N-U-I (En - You - Eye)
    Oro Neeka, Oro Neeka
    Hay Hay, Hay Hay
    O-U-I (Oh - You - Eye)
