THE IDIRLION PROJECT PRESENTS A SHAMANIC JOURNEY: Sunday, April 22nd

“Enter A World of Non-Ordinary Reality”

About Shamanism
Shamanism is an ancient sacred technology, beyond dogma and religion, that empowers people to change their lives through direct experience of the mysteries. Though often associated with South America and Siberia, there are pockets of shamanic wisdom and practice around the world.

About The Shamanic Journey
The shamanic journey is a way of finding answers, information, healing, and knowledge, as well as guidance or help with one’s personal life. Through a program of drumming, rattling, and sigil casting, the team will provide “an opportunity to open yourself to receive the wisdom of the universe and live in a more connected way to the earthly and heavenly forces that are guiding your life.”

Registration fee: $30 per person.
